First that PWG No Focus, and now this
I should stop giving weird challenges ;_;

Nice job, btw.

LHCling · « **Reply #271 on:** March 14, 2010, 09:46:01 AM »

Next on the list is to do it while shooting (partially) and trying to stay underneath Kogasa.

Adding to my To-Do: a Perfect Aya No Vert. Might need to swap to ReimuB to break things though. Oh, and Momi No Vert as well as ~*~PMBS~*~. Actually, I wonder if I should aim for Perfect Stage 4 No Vert... Seems absurd though, considering that probability is working against me here. Then again, most challenges on paper are. Preliminary testing has shown this to be possible though.

Argh, this sickness is annoying.

Probably should mention that having 12.5 out there is a good breather of sorts for me. It gives me a year (and a half?) to prepare for 13.

And as I've said before (somewhere?) it gives you more time to play UFO. Hop to it guys :V

That's what happened with StB, UFO, and now DS. We can't stop it.

It also happened with SA.

Patchy Lunatic MarisA 1 death

clipped agni radiance due to hitbox miscalculations, captured everything else. also captured the books before koakuma on two different runs which is pretty nice...

Hah. That would explain your ease with Keine's midboss spell, although i find it to be quite easy myself - even timing it out. EoSD bubble hitboxes don't want me to perfect though...

Finally unlocked StB Extra! The unlocker was 9-7. Honestly, 9-7 was really easy, I have no idea why I hadn't capped it until now.

Anyway, what's the screen "1: Newspaper Extra" after the Extra stage for? Is Double Spoiler going to patch itself there? EDIT: By the way, when will Double Spoiler be released?

It's out.

Newspaper Extra was something we suspect ZUN had planned as little bonus patches to add extra characters later on, but he never did.

Double Spoiler, level 9... moving on to Level 10 now.

9-5 Satori

Spoiler:

Actually not that bad, as long as you change the picture orientation to vertical with X.

9-6 Koishi gets a fun little spell that changes phases every 2~3 pictures. The third phase is really pretty. Not terribly hard, either.

9-7. GOD FUCKING DAMMIT SATORI

Spoiler:

AUGH AUGH NO, WHYYYYYYY. Thankfully, this only takes 3 photos to clear, so you can just luckgarbage it, and it shouldn't take long.

Zengeku · « **Reply #277 on:** March 14, 2010, 06:23:33 PM »

Double Spoiler level 9? Oh, uhmm... guess i'm a little behind then.

but then again, i only just got it. I have beat levels 1, 2 and 3 now. Easy but still fun. I also like the way you get golden camera's for reaching a certain scoring milestone.

Because of Aya's shitty movement speed. The pattern in itself isn't intimidating at all but Aya's speed made me clip enough to drive me crazy. Gimme Reimu and it should be easy enough.

Speaking of movement speed... is it just me or doesn't Ayas movement speed feel polished in DS?

Feels about the same to me. I never had much trouble with it in StB, to be honest.

Zengeku · « **Reply #282 on:** March 14, 2010, 08:13:04 PM »

Beat the first 5 scenes in Level 4. But what the heck ZUN? Why can't i access the replays from the replay menu? That sucks you know. So i did some polishing of my scene captures. I'll have to record and turn them into videos because ZUN's replay system have flaws... AGAIN!

Anyway, play time is 1 hour and 21 minutes. 25 scenes captured. Score: 2,570,028

Okay maybe a bit, but it really didn't look like anything that would go ahead an become problematic. As i see it, its not too much about reading it but more to make Aya make accurate enough movements to actually dodge it.

But i'm certain there is a difference to the movement speed. Maybe its because i'm still playing around with level 1,2 and 3. Just improving my results a bit. Also, part of me wanna rush ahead as i'm very excited to see what kinds of patterns ZUN have in store for me but i still want to be able to keep replays. Especially after polishing them with higher scores.

I'm up to level 10 in DS. This game is SO fun. Most recent scene cleared is KinkAAAGGHGHGAGHAGGHHHHkuji. ZUN is the most magnificent bastard ever for 9-7. It's like you enter, not sure what to expect, and Satori flashes a smile and goes "hmm, where did we leave off? Oh yesssssss... :3"

Naut · « **Reply #284 on:** March 14, 2010, 08:37:23 PM »

1:46, 42 scenes, 5,322,744. Skipped the puzzles. There's a few good dodgems in here, but I think I still prefer stage+boss :V

"HLS Effect"^TM

Nya ha~~ >:3

Now awaiting for the magic to play and... just refer to my signature. I'll be waiting...

"Sylphae Horn High Level" No Death / Bomb Timeout, along with various others in the same run. Don't expect an upload until April
Perfect Momi No Vert
Perfect ~*~PMBS~*~ No Vert from the 16 second mark by sheer luck
Aya's 2nd Non-Spell Timeout No Vert
Kanako's opener No Vert (this is seriously overblown in difficulty)
"Divining Crop" No Vert (and very, very fun)
"Source of Rains" No Vert
"VoW-*bang*
"Moreya's Iron Ring" No Vert

I was bored on Sunday so I went No Vert in MoF (Stages 4, 6 and Extra) and did that. The Extra run failed because I was a derpsicle and tried to cap "Mishaguji-Sama"; and completely forgot that dodging is really difficult from the center (if not downright impossible unless you move to the side).

Just so we are clear, I was referring to the 9 spoiler stages at the end of the game.
Not the whole game obviously. :V

Only level 10. 12 and extra are hard.

EDIT:

This card is great for score~

Spoiler:

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #290 on:** March 14, 2010, 11:36:51 PM »

Extra unlocked.

Zengeku · « **Reply #291 on:** March 14, 2010, 11:38:10 PM »

Right. I'm like super slow at DS apparently. 1 hour 30 minutes. All of level 1, 2, 3 and 4 cleared with a score at about 3 million.

Having had issues with not being able to find out where replays are saved made me not wanna proceed beyond as i wouldn't be able to save replays without deleting old ones.

Its not like i'm having trouble with the low level scenes though. The game is just so much fun that i feel inspired to play the same scenes again and again and again to try and get better scores at them. Something that didn't happen to me with the original StB.

The music is nice and fresh, the graphics are gorgeous and even easy patterns like everything in levels 1,2,3 and 4 are fun to play. It seems this game is gonna be a blast!!!

I dodged the first wave of 7-5. And then I noticed that you are supposed to memorize the spell and avoid the red stuff completely

hurr durr esc back to menu do something else

~~I accidentally the replay. Rename it to MoF system if you got the older one.~~

Is it a problem to memorize things about spells in this type of Touhou game? You pick spells from the menu and you can try again and again till' you solve the puzzle. Then you'll never have to do it again. What's the problem? I understand that you hate memorizing in the main games because i do so as well but this is a StB type game. Its meant to have patterns that need you to figure out a way to capture them!

Sapz · « **Reply #297 on:** March 15, 2010, 01:28:11 AM »

Welp, 100 scenes cleared on my first day. Was hoping for a full clear in a single day, but that seems too ambitious given that I have school in the morning. :ohdear: Ah well, still not too bad I suppose.

Jaimers · « **Reply #298 on:** March 15, 2010, 01:34:29 AM »

91 here with 20 and a half million points.

I'm out for the day.

Sen · « **Reply #299 on:** March 15, 2010, 02:16:55 AM »

Just completed Stage 7 in DS. I also just found out that pressing X swaps you do vertical mode. That would have made most of Stage 6 so much easier :V
