The 3rd, 2nd and 1st place winners of the tournament got to respectively pick a music track, a stage, and a character to be in the game. We got
Inchlings of the Shining Needle ~ Little Princess
Pandemonium (Mystic Square)
and Yuuka

Praise the first-placer.

The game looks really good and your progressing at an amazing speed.
But please don't overwork yourself, kay? (I've been told that myself and know how it is to be passionately working on a project.)

I wasn't able to participate in the tournament because I had to go home since I live an hour away, but I think I was one of the first people to play the demo after it was set up, so that was really cool. During the one match that I played, there was some thing with Sakuya floating above the corner of the platform for about 3 seconds and another where I was kept in hitstun for around 5 hits with her side-smash(at least, that's what I think it was). It was pretty cool to talk with you, too.

Colticide · « **Reply #274 on:** September 21, 2014, 01:40:54 PM »

Damn I wish I knew before hand, would have been fun to watch. How many people participated?

Ozzy · « **Reply #275 on:** September 22, 2014, 06:31:21 AM »

I was watching the stream for the game at TouhouCon and was quite impressed with how it's coming along!

Do you have any plans for music to include in the game? Incidentally, a friend of mine and are interested in possibly helping create tracks to contribute to your game, if you would like. They would probably be mainly arranges of Touhou songs, but I think we're also capable of original tracks. I can show you a few samples of what I'm capable of if you'd like, as I'm actually making the OST for a Touhou fangame of my own.

Colticide · « **Reply #276 on:** September 22, 2014, 11:11:44 AM »

I think Komiji Records is helping make music right now if I recall.

Saijee · « **Reply #277 on:** September 22, 2014, 10:59:05 PM »

This was my first ever Con, and I have to say, thanks to everyone who was there for making this the best part of my life I have ever experienced. Between the Tournament, and just talking 1 on 1 with other touhou fans, and 1 on 1 with people who were actually FSS fans, it was awesome.

I'll try to post videos still, though for now I am going on a hiatus for progressive dev videos, since TSSB was my priority for the past 20 days, I need to catch up on schoolwork at least for the next 2 weeks.

Coming soon, are some videos where I recap my expirence at TouhouCon in general, another where I talk about my experiences in the gaming room with the tournament and address some of the twitch comments. A repost of the TSSB tourney stream, and posts of the music provided by the Scary Sheet Ghost used in the Alpha that was in the tourney.

I finally got around to shortening her knife!

Yookie · « **Reply #279 on:** September 23, 2014, 01:22:04 PM »

Huh, I never saw the length of her knife as an issue.
It looked good before the change but either is fine.

Saijee · « **Reply #280 on:** September 23, 2014, 03:05:57 PM »

I also saw no issue, but I kept on getting complaints about it from various people.

Saijee · « **Reply #281 on:** September 24, 2014, 06:42:52 AM »

When I get at least 3 characters done, I want to make a seg on my website that copies the format of Sakurai's official smash page:

Loving the authentic look of it! Also great choice of using a bat for the symbol, really fits!

Saijee · « **Reply #283 on:** September 24, 2014, 04:10:58 PM »

Thanks, speaking of authentic:

Personally I'm not too keen on the idea of voice-acting since that can go horribly wrong.
I'm thinking of the voice-mod for SWR here, which I personally really don't like but that's also due to some sound-clipping issues that thing has which here won't be happening.

But it's also something similar to a book -> movie adaptation and the book's characters' and locations' appearance. Most people have their own idea about how someone in a book looks
and in the same way most people have their own voice for each character in their head.
I know there already have been many works with voice-acting for Touhou but just know that you should be really careful with it.

Saijee · « **Reply #285 on:** September 25, 2014, 07:47:23 AM »

I thought the Soku voiec mod was bad. I am very specific when it comes to voice direction, and wouldn't allow for anything on that level to pass.

Colticide · « **Reply #286 on:** September 25, 2014, 11:03:32 AM »

You also planning on adding a announcer voice like SSB?

If I recall it was very hit or miss for me. Personally I would be ok with voice acting for the most part as long as it is toggleable.

Saijee · « **Reply #288 on:** September 26, 2014, 05:04:54 PM »

IMO the first requirement to good VA performance is that it must not sound annoying. And yea it would be togglable.

Sagus · « **Reply #289 on:** September 26, 2014, 07:30:41 PM »

So, the only thing left to do for Sakura is her spellcard(s?), right? Do you already have an idea on what it's going to be?

Saijee · « **Reply #290 on:** September 27, 2014, 12:50:55 AM »

I am actually trying to get a few other things in to the game before getting there, right now, specifically, blade trail effects. And yea I have a few ideas for her spell cards.

But I also need to implement 3 other new abilities into the game.

Saijee · « **Reply #291 on:** September 28, 2014, 09:38:07 PM »

For anyone who want's to help out this project, since I've been getting a lot of messages about that topic, I made this video:

Colticide · « **Reply #292 on:** September 29, 2014, 02:09:39 AM »

So would you suggest that we post things here? I've been working on something for a few weeks but it's not quite ready yet.

Btw I just need a reminder but the confirmed character so far are Sakuya, Reimu, Tenshi, and Yuuka right? That's all the one I remember, it's for the thing I'm working on. (whether it'll be good or not is beyond me but I still want to try)

Saijee · « **Reply #293 on:** September 29, 2014, 03:50:57 AM »

Anywhere that I can read/find then you may post.

Those are the confirmed playable. Though other characters confirmed to appear:
Meiling appears up front in the stage "Meiling's Gate" (the SDM gate)
Utsuho appears in the background of the stage "Blazing Hell" generating her blazing sun.

UnendingEmpire · « **Reply #294 on:** September 29, 2014, 03:55:59 AM »

So the confirmed characters are Sakuya, Reimu, Tenshi, USC (I typed SDM at first

)
The confirmed stages are Pandemonium, SDM gate, Blazing Hell

Here shortly, I'll have a Magus Night remix/arrange/whatever up for you in the might-be-less-likely-than-I'm-imagining event that Marisa will be in the roster or somewhere. Now I'm heavily tempted to take a whack at Dolls of Misery, too...

Saijee · « **Reply #295 on:** September 29, 2014, 04:30:18 AM »

Don't forget Yuuka! She got into the roster thanks to the Tourney Champion: LoreCreations.

As if anyone else could be our USC

Well, I've got your Magus Night remix here. Complete with ZUNpets, a symphonic metal kind of motif, key changes, and a loop point halfway in. YouTube uploader was being an ass, so I had to stick it up on Mediafire instead. At least now you don't have to convert it

I like the way this is sounding. Not too fond of the guitar instrument used but it's not bad. The strings and choir go together well with everything surprisingly and I can definitely get a symphonic vibe from it. The ZUNpet, though, I'm a little iffy on. When it's together with the rest of the instruments it sounds about as epic as usual, but when it's by itself it sounds very.....dry if you know what I mean. It reminds me of what happens when I try to use the Touhou Soundfont ZUNpet without any added reverb. Is that what you are doing for the ZUNpet instrument in this song?

Ultimately, I think it sounds pretty good but could probably still be a little better.

I like it, the beginning was a bit jarring and sounded rough but once you got other sounds in it sounded pretty good.

Grr... My parts gonna have to wait, got the flu and my throat is in no condition to do what I wanted. What kind of game modes are you gonna have?

Saijee · « **Reply #299 on:** September 29, 2014, 04:56:12 PM »

Yea it sounds very nice and clear.

Modes?
Single
-Training
-Story (Short Stories, that allow you to play as any character for character specific short stories)
-Adventure (The game's mains story that only lets you play as the main characters)
-Break the Targets

Multi
-Stock-Time Match
-Shoot'em Up: Kinda like multimen, except defeated enemies drop point and power pellets, and the player with highest score in time wins.
-Master Fighter: Players are awarded for stringing together true-combos, longer combos multiply the points gained. First to reach a goal wins.
-Stamina Battle: HP based battles on stages that have no ring outs
-Co-op Story Mode
