--- Quote from: Arcorann on April 20, 2017, 01:39:43 PM ---* The game is described as a "return to the beginning" with a "simple feeling" according to Google Translate (an actual translation would be appreciated). The only indication of what the system might involve is the meter on the lower left of the screen.

I had just started playing LoLK again, too, and was speculating to myself yesterday that the next game will likely be some "back to basics" angle. But I was really not expecting an announcement this soon. Holy moly!
And yes, given the "SUMMER" in the background of Cirno, I'm guessing each character has its own season. Aya will likely be autumn.
TresserT:
WAIT I just realized I was right...
TD: PCB, DDC: EoSD, LoLK: IN, HSiFS: PoFV
Which means... Spoiler: No Mima this game, but TH17 will be a return to MS!!!
binbinbake:
Maybe ZUN wants to go back to the usual Shmup-system he used, so there might not be a Pointdevice Mode in this one...?
Suwako Moriya:
Sir Amat, do you happen to have the Smug Aya Face handy? I need it for reasons.
Drake:
It's been a while. The weather over here has suddenly gotten hotter.
On the last day of Golden Week (May 7), I will also be participating in Reitaisai.
The work I'll be presenting this time is below.

Touhou Project 16th
「東方天空璋 (Touhou Tenkuushou) ～ Hidden Star in Four Seasons.」
I'll be selling the trial version at Reitaisai (if I make it in time). The full version is planned for Summer Comiket.
Please speculate about the story from the screenshots. Doing a 180 from the last work, I'm going for a really light and refreshing feeling, I guess?
The protagonists this time are; Reimu Hakurei, Marisa Kirisame, Tanned Cirno, and Aya Shameimaru.
What kind of adventure is this even supposed to turn into, I wonder.

Something like this.
Right now I'm in crunch time, so the screenshots are highly likely to change, but it'll probably stay an STG.
I'd sure like to release the demo for Reitaisai.
This time I'd like to return to my roots with something that simply aims to make you feel good to play. No twists; the somewhat fabled "ordinary STG" might be the thing we need right now!
And with that, IT'S TENKUUSHOU-TIME!
