A Touhou Starcraft game by Neetpia, so it seems.

Upon checking Neetpia's official homepage I have noticed a new game they seem to be developing called: とうほう☆ストラテジー~LotusCraft~ ("Touhou ☆ Strategy ~ LotusCraft ~") or basically: Touhou Starcraft.

Neetpia has been relatively known for their Touhou spin-off "Age of Ethanols" which has been successfully completed by the circle. Now it seems they are aiming for a star craft imitation with Touhou girls. I am not a starcraft player myself, so I wouldn't know how the gameplay would look/feel in comparison to the original. Unfortunately my Japanese fails on the note, they were suppose to be releasing a trial version at Comiket 82 and it seems also the winter Comiket date is mentioned.

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL FAITH PILLARS! ??

It's the same engine as Ethanols isn't it?

Not sure about the technical details, but judging from the screenshots they could be heavily reusing the same engine. (Would make sense I guess).

Doesn't look much like starcraft to me. :/
Unless its gonna be starcraft with hero units.

They dared to include cliffs, maybe that means they got better pathing?

I really wanted to get into Boushuen but after a few updates it became unplayable unless you change your computer settings to moon.
