Touhou 14.5: 東方深秘録 ~ Urban Legend in Limbo. is HM sequel, demo at Comiket 87
cuc:
Our diligent Touhou news sources in Japan have been listening to D.N.A.'s Nae Radio stream, which is still ongoing at the moment.
The stream confirmed one thing:
ULiL will be a sequel to HM, rather than an expansion pack.
According to D.N.A., ZUN said this about the game: "it has become a very good game".

Pretty soon for another fighting game, don't you think? Anyway, can't wait to see pics soon!
Character speculation, anyone? Sekibanki, plz!
EDIT: I just realized... Having various characters in the series playable makes for an ideal 20th anniversary game!

Sweet =)

Well..... so long as it doesn't play like HM did, I guess that's cool....... Otherwise, meh, I'll just wait for Touhou 15......
I guess we will know more soon so Im not going to speculate too much. Who knows it could turn out really good.

Well this is a very interesting. Being a sequel rather than an expansion, will this mean an entirely new cast of characters or an entirely new story but a lot of returning characters from HM coming back? I can't imagine Tasofro making an entirely new game and entire cast of characters after all the effort they put in the last one and in such a short time span. (the last big game, SWR, came out in 2008, with it's expansion, Hisoutensoku, coming out a year later).
I'd rather it'd be a reworked HM game, because HM was actually pretty good in a competitive sense (no RNG bullshit like soku/SWR had) but the biggest problem was lack of deep mix ups and such. The flying gameplay was good, but unfortunately not many people were willing to get used to a new gameplay style for fighters.

Flying fighting games aren't new, mind you, but they are rare.
