3) ...Uh... what does this mean?
4) It has the least amount of HP of any boss in the game.
3) During the dialogue, the one on the right overlaps the one on the left. It might not really be a problem, but...
4) ...Oh, I must've meant somehing else, or maybe it's because of the movement of the player and boss?

3) Oh, OK. I understand what you mean
4) Yup. It's the movement that makes the spell so long.

Also, I've updated the LOCAA v1.09 Package. After a complaint about it being dysfunctional, I went and updated the DNH with one I downloaded from the official site.

Interesting stuff you have here...
Maybe I shouldn't have stopped trying Danmakufu stuff back in seventh-eighth grade... back in 2010...
I'll probably read your tutorials once finals are done(Sophomore... except of course I decided not to go to the school that offered programming stuff... meh)
Nearly made it into Stuyvesant, but I did get into Brooklyn Tech... Of course the inner sloth in me decided not to go there... Meh.
Anyway, you have some great tutorials. Really impressive stuff.
Cheers.

Before playing:
- It is quite easy to play music during event scripts in 0.12m.
Code: [Select]
//In the event script
SetStep(x);

//In a task in the enemy script which contains the event script
task mainTask{
let check1 = 0;
     loop{

if(OnEvent){
if(GetEventStep==x && check1==0){
         PlayMusic(bgm);
check1++;}}

yield;}}
- The way you put the music for download is annoying, since it takes alot of time to download each file separately...
After playing:
Stage 1:
- Way too many bullets for stage 1. The bullets are also quite fast and confusing, so it's close to being the hardest stage in the game (atleast on normal).
- The boss circles layout isn't transparent at all.
Stage 2:
-
Spoiler:
Celebi's sprite still looks strange.
- Celebi's second spellcard: Sudden green cheapshot out of nowhere. Even when you know it's coming, it is kinda cheap. Almost on par with the Mrs.Estacion cheapshots.
- Celebi's third spellcard: The sudden timestop actually makes the pattern ALOT harder than neccessary in this case.
Stage 3:
- Midboss Charizards second nonspell is a cheapshot in most cases.
- In lunatic mode, Charizards dash attacks after the midboss gets close to undodgeable at the end.
- Charizard retreats, then explodes???
- Just wondering, have you thought about using a 3D background here? Nothing wrong, but it would look alot better.
Simply some feedback on what could be better.

Nothing I can do about this; I'm constantly updating this makes updates much smaller. I can't zip them all up though, simple because I need to test each music track to make sure it doesn't crash (which happens ALL the time with my version of Audacity).

Stg 1:
Please elaborate on where you're having the density issue
What do you mean by Boss Circle Layout? If you mean the magic circle, I can just lower the Alpha value.

Stg 2:
OK. Got the message about the green cheap shot. Will probably lower speed on ENH.
As for the timestop, I'll see if I can still sync the lasers if I use slowdown.

Stg 3:
Got it. I'll make the first one redirect elsewhere so that it doesn't become a cheapshot and so the player knows what's coming.
I'll deal with the density of the small flames.
Uh... I'll try to have him explode higher up on the screen so it doesn't look as cheesy.
I FAIL AT 3D BACKGROUNDS! I've tried doing it for Stage 1, and I've never gotten what I wanted.

Thanks for the feedback!

(As for the music, I think it'll be a logistical challenge since the boss scripts will have trouble fading out the stage bgm on practice mode.

1. Normally (even on lunatic) stage 1 doesn't have that many bullets. At the end of the stage the different bullets with different speeds starts to make the pattern harder to read, so maybe you could slow down the bullet speed on the last part of stage 1?
2. What I mean is that I see a highly transparent, but visible square behind the circle.
3. Why not use VanishEnemy here? Have I missed something?

Anyways, Stage 3 now has a 3D background. I tried Stage 1 but it just wouldn't come out like you were traveling into the picture. I don't have any clue how to do it, so it'll probably stay 2D until I figure out how to do it.

EDIT: Version 0.59 now has a semi-working Norm-point and Norm-graze system. Bombs are now officially broken. Also, adding in the music has no easy solution, because I need to restate paths, edit all of my boss practice files, and edit all of my stage task files and hope that it works. PDD is not supposed to be Touhou, and that's my excuse.

Music DL: http://www.mediafire.com/?lzvbi2kh3ggep

This version fixes up multiple difficulty issues, adds a few attacks, and adds what currently exists of extra. This release is more for difficulty testing than anything else, mainly because I am unable to complete Stage 3 Lunatic (the difficulty spike for Hard and Lunatic Mode). Note that much more music is currently available, and that some of it may need testing.

Stage 3 finished
Delay changes for all attacks
Stage 3 edits
New openers by Hinabanana
Charge effects
Fade in and out of stage openers (Arachnophilia, the thing you requested in like version 0.14 has finally been done)

Just a question, why do you even bother posting these updates if you're not going to give the download out here? I guess it's just to let people know stuff is being done but you update often enough as it is. Bumping your thread constantly is just going to make people stop paying attention as closely, as each update post seems to look exactly like the last. It becomes too much of a routine if you update so frequently, IMO. Not to mention that these updates don't serve much of a purpose if people can't actually download them to see them for themselves. Why not just post the updates only if you're actually willing to let forum members download them?

Edit: I just realized that it's possible that you're going to add the download link later. If that is the case, then I'm sorry I didn't notice, but honestly it's mainly because your updates look so ubiquitous that I haven't been paying attention as closely, as I said. If you update less frequently, then (IMO) people are more likely to notice, because it's more out of the ordinary.

I am also slightly questioned/confused by this. Before I thought it was occasional or random. But if I back-track versions I notice similar occurrences, no idea why.

DL: Skype only
You're posting on a public section, if you have no intention of sharing/releasing, instead keeping it inside a private (? Skype only?) group why bother? Unless you're private testing first before releasing to public. Which again I don't see why it is being reported like this. *scratches head*

Not quite sure if it is any use when someone notices "Hey a new version. Huh? No download link? Skype? What?" or similar scenario occurs.  I don't mind the frequent updates, that is developer choice but I do mind people running into odd things.

I understand what both of you are referring to.

I have multiple reasons for this.

Firstly, it saves time uploading to BulletForge and repopulating information in a number of places about the new release. (I have to update the information in about 6-7 different locations)
Secondly, most of these releases are completely bug-infested and people don't like buggy or incomplete versions (hence the reason why most releases aren't released and why most Skype-only downloads have such a weird selection of features).
Thirdly, (and most controversially), making a new post prevents this thread from moving to the next page of RaNGE, and since there is no bookmark function on MotK, finding the thread easily involves going to Notifications and finding it that way (and posing the danger of clicking the Delete This Account button, which I've almost clicked accidentally when I'm not clear-headed)
Fourthly, it shows that I'm not dead.

I understand that some of my reasons aren't exactly legitimate and are selfish, but the number of releases will continue to plummet (especially since I plan for Stage 5 to be the longest stage in the main game, at about 6-7 minutes for the stage portion.)

I will refrain from posting as much, but I will still post placeholder versions when I think that I've either added a lot or when the thread is about to fall into the abyss of RaNGE.

Either way, a major demo release of PDD will be out within a month, and once my domain name is purchased, I should have an independent website update sometime after to promote my new projects site.

I apologize for my selfishness and for whatever other reasons, but I plan to move my focus to my own website after it's made, so I will most likely stop posting devel releases on MotK entirely then.

No offence, but your last four releases report Bugs: < void >. Isn't there discrepancy if that is the case? Incomplete versions, from the sounds of your releases they sound complete. Which is why I noted the confusion in the first place. Your announcing a version for download, yet you tell us these are incomplete versions. Wouldn't it be better to actually complete something first then announce it?

Thirdly, (and most controversially), making a new post prevents this thread from moving to the next page of RaNGE, and since there is no bookmark function on MotK, finding the thread easily involves going to Notifications and finding it that way (and posing the danger of clicking the Delete This Account button, which I've almost clicked accidentally when I'm not clear-headed)
Afaik, MotK has bookmark abilities for threads. Also for other people there is the A to Z listing for reference. Perhaps you should check this out if it makes your life easier.

Fourthly, it shows that I'm not dead.
I wouldn't be worried too much about the "dead" status. By those standards you could declare 90% of RikaNitori dead :V since most people are silently working on their projects but post on the board as regular member activity.

I understand that some of my reasons aren't exactly legitimate and are selfish, but the number of releases will continue to plummet (especially since I plan for Stage 5 to be the longest stage in the main game, at about 6-7 minutes for the stage portion.)

I will refrain from posting as much, but I will still post placeholder versions when I think that I've either added a lot or when the thread is about to fall into the abyss of RaNGE.

Either way, a major demo release of PDD will be out within a month, and once my domain name is purchased, I should have an independent website update sometime after to promote my new projects site.
Whether they are legitimate or selfish isn't the issue, more like the confusion occurring along with your updates. I think you're taking this too hard on yourself.

I apologize for my selfishness and for whatever other reasons, but I plan to move my focus to my own website after it's made, so I will most likely stop posting devel releases on MotK entirely then.
I don't understand this motive.

I don't understand this motive.

I stopped listing most bugs because it's easier to keep track of them in the changelog or fix them ASAP (which occurred with Umbreon's spell name being too long and stars covering up the lifebar and spell name; that was fixed under 10 minutes after Trickysticks reported it).

Most of the releases are not "Complete." Most releases are for feedback on how to improve before a more complete "demo" release. And while I understand your point about only releasing complete versions like most others, I take negative criticism too strongly, so I try to fix as much as possible before I label a project as "Complete."

MotK has bookmarking? O_O I thought it only had notifications and that new replies button.

The motive for moving everything to one place is to not have to update multiple places when I release something. Currently, all Youtube links (after I hit like 4 or 5 videos, I implemented this) link to my google sites subdomain rather than the bulletforge dl link. And everything else links here to MotK. But I'm not going to risk throwing my entire future of computer programming and engineering under google sites, so I'm planning to make my own website with its own domain name so that I can have one place to pool everything and link to. That way I won't have to worry about my DeviantArt, Youtube, Moriya Shrine, etc. updates because they will all link to one central place. (I'll still use MotK of course. Where else am I going to get publicity? XD)

So two more releases of PDD have come out.

Pok?DigiDanmaku 1.26 Beta Release
and
Pok?DigiDanmaku 1.27 Beta Release.

Within the next week, I should have bug fixed and stabilized most of Pok?DigiDanmaku. After that, there will be a demo release in its own release package, like with the 1.00 release.

The difference is that this time, the download on Bulletforge will be blank; it will state that "No Script Has Been Uploaded." This is because I will not be providing a patch; I will request that everyone redownload the entire thing. I will most likely include music for Stages 5 and 6 inside the package.

Whether or not I will release an official demo with Stage 5 is currently unknown; it depends on how much feedback I receive for it.

Anyways, just to give a few highlights of the next demo:

-Eevee is completed! Challenge 7 of the Eeveelutions! Each difficulty features a different cast of the Eeveelutions!
-Config.txt is available! You can now choose to turn off the Stage Frame and Background effects if your computer is a lag machine!

There will be other changes as well. Stay tuned!

Maybe you should screenshot a spell or nonspell?

Doesn't matter; I'll be releasing the entire thing very soon. The question is whether or not it'll work; I need to do a bit of testing first.
