2018 in Touhou Past and Future
nav':
I have precisely zero achievements or failures in 2018 (other than beating the Labyrinth of Touhou 2 main game), however I'm going to challenge myself with a couple of very basic goals for 2019: beat at least one of my extant scores and put some real effort into an EoSD scorerun.
Mellow:
Personal Favorite Achievements of 2018: I finally got a bit better at drawing, and controlling my character in touhou lol.
Personal Biggest Screw-ups of 2018: Probably just drama.
Favorite Achievements by Others of 2018: More touhou memes :P
Goals for 2019: Just art improvement! And writing.
[OPTIONAL] Challenges to Other Players: Play any touhou game of your choice whilst listening to Cirno's perfect math class on full volume. DO IT!
Suspicious person:
Personal Favorite Achievements of 2018: Quite a fair few for this year : finally got around playing UFO and getting 1 CCs for all shot types on Normal difficulties, finally gotten around to playing LoLK Legacy mode and getting a proper 1 CC for Sanae and Reisen, which I would consider pretty good since I haven't touched the game for what, 5 or 6 months ? And also getting my first extra clears with HSiFS and TD. But what I'm the most satisfied with is getting a Hard mode clear with HSiFS, with Marisa (Winter), which I also got after not touching the game for quite some time.
Personal Biggest Screw-ups of 2018: Doing TD's extra stage, reaching Mamizou, aaaaannnnnnd getting kicked out cuz apparently the game crashes at the end of her survival if you hadn't patched the game yet. Huh. Patching the TH games to their latest versions is not a reflex I exactly have. Apparently not getting your game to it's best version is bad, who knew
Favorite Achievements by Others of 2018: Eh. Dunno. But seeing Jaimers put a video of him finally doing LoLK's stage 6 certainly gave me a good laugh. Made my day.
Goals for 2019: Hmmm, dunno, try to get various clears and moving slowly upwards, difficluty wise ? I like to collect those "cleared" symbols. Not planning on trying score runs yet, tho. Seems a tad cumbersome.
[OPTIONAL] Challenges to Other Players: Maybe try to check out the various fangames this community has made or something ? There are quite a couple of cool fangames that aren't shmups out there, it should be worth it to try to check non-shmup fangames once in a while.
Crescendo:
Personal Favorite Achievements of 2018: Beating Kaguya on my second try... how? I'm still baffled since I'm usually an absolute disaster the first few times.
Personal Biggest Screw-ups of 2018: Was doing an attempt to 1CC SA. It was going great, bomb management was on point and I haven't lost a life yet. Believe I had 5-6 on me.
And then Orin destroys me and leaves me with one life left. :V
Favorite Achievements by Others of 2018: I'm still a noob at Touhou so... literally everyones achievements on here is amazing. Keep it up guys!
Goals for 2019: Still on my goal to Normal 1CC all the games past TH6, but I plan on starting Hard 1CC for EoSD, as well as tackling Flan once I finish. Also plan on keeping up learning danmakufu; maybe I'll actually submit scripts soon.
