チルノレーシング・幻想へのロード 「Cirno Racing - Road to Genso」



BunBunMaru news office brings you another preview of a rather interesting game that I have stumbled upon quite a while ago, but never actually found good informative source for.

The game carries the the name: Cirno Racing which was presented on this year's Comiket C76. And as you might have guessed, it is a racing game. Unfortunately, again this is mere a preview. There are rumours being spread about a possible demo being available soon. I hope to write an more indept article if a demo is released for free by the developers

I am hearing suddenly various rumours about this game either being an april fool joke or canceled. But if I don't see anything written on their official site about this. Kind of late for an april fool joke in my opinion.

I've seriously been waiting for this for some time now. I hope we get it at C77.

If this is real I will LP it and act like a 6-year-old whenever playing as Cirno by making various car sounds the entire time.

Genso is actually a real word, you know. Considering they're already in Gensokyo, I think "Road to Fantasy" is better. Maybe 'Illusion' instead of fantasy if you want to be literal.

Anybody know if this game is scheduled for playable demo or whatever by this upcoming Comiket?

|D Definitely been waiting for this game.
... Wait, they updated? Last update says 2009.7.23. I don't see any difference from my last visit... but meh :V *went hyper again, thanks :3

I have an old thread about Cirno Racing... buuut I'm not encouraged to post there and necro it =x=

I sooo hope it's no april fool joke ;_;. It looks too awesome to be an april fool joke... wait... o_o;;

AHAHAA LETTY RIDES A TRICYCLE.

And Kaguya's car is the best. XD  Also, the Koumakyou crew.

This looks fun.  I hope it's not another one of those "preview video only" things, and actually gets released (and that it works in Wine).

BTW:  Art list 1, Art list 2.

... Ah well, it's been exposed xD

They make the weirdest race tracks. Also a no-loop track at that. Heh, that's Gensokyo for you.

... And I doubt this will ever work on Windows98SE =x=;; (guessing that game will at least need DirectX 9's d3d_33.dll, which my dinosaur OS doesn't support)

You need to update.  At least to Win2k, unless you need straight DOS support for something.

Anyway, it seems like they might be doing a trial release next summer.  Hopefully it's not another Touhou vaporware game with a pretty video.

You heard me. It was on the same webpage where you clicked on the art lists.

And the notice you saw for the trial release had been up for a long time, so it was a reference to LAST summer.

Wait, sorry. so the whole game is fabricated? or just the art links? Careful how you answer, angry mob might abuse you >=P

Seems like it was either a fabrication, or the people making it gave up on it and never said anything.

Seemed like a lot of work for a fake, but if anyone is familiar with Enjoy April Fool's Day,
Japanese people seem to like to waste work.

Seems more like one of those forgotten projects than a joke, after reading through the website a bit more thoroughly. No one seems to be mentioning it on the front page, though.

Just another forgotten project that could have been cool...

The whole game is fabricated. They just drew a bunch of concept art and ideas and made some screenshots.

Of course, there was another notice saying how it's status could change at any given time...

What a waste of time its not even funny. I'm sure the people who did put this out gave up anyways.

If I'll update this old PC to Win2k, I'll go straight to XP. Eh, I'm too loyal for Win98SE to change ^x^

Too late for me =.=

Artist tend to draw game concept sketches, it seems. He's full of ideas, just not enough human force or whatever reason to complete even one, I guess...
