Strange Challenges

[Lopsidation]

ITT we post the weirdest Touhou challenges possible.

(Easy) UFO: Dodge the snowflakes in the Music Room until your favorite track loops.
(Variable, Normal-Lunatic+) Kaguya's last Last Spell (any difficulty), Marisa, no focus, never stop firing.
(Lunatic) Heaven and Hell Meltdown from the middle of the screen, no focus. Marisa makes it especially hard.

[Helepolis]

Imo you should play and try 1cc Mountain of Black death squares.

[Drake]

1cc Subterranean Black Squares with the focus button constantly held down with a rock.

[Kanako Yasaka]

1cc SA easy while staying above the PoC the entire time.

[Bananamatic]

VoWG capture with a DDR pad

timeout Hell's Tokamak in the middle with night vision goggles in a dark room

[Drake]

1cc SA easy while staying above the PoC the entire time.

I want to do this now.

ReimuC/MarisaB for backwards shots  :V

[DgBarca]

Good luck on KOI3S and Heaven and hell meltdown

[Kanako Yasaka]

KOI3S is entirely possible, especially TaS. :\

[ebarrett]

Can't ReimuC just, err, bomb the hell out of Heaven and Hell Meltdown?

[Drake]

this is pretty really hard

[Bananamatic]

this is pretty really hard

<-st1 gameover
this is shittakingly hard

[Serela]

Doing it in practice mode without TASing I think should count simply for the fact that Utsuho's first 3 cards (And plenty of other cards in the game) basically require completely bombing through. Maybe with a limit set for lives lost on each stage.

Heaven and Hell Meltdown+Hell's Artificial Sun are actually totally doable, and Orin's Stage 6 card has a safespot that isn't hard to find, and can let you capture it if you have at least 3 power. This is a really cool challenge. Replay coming up after I manage to clear Stage 6 in practice.

[Drake]

I went ahead with the other stages. They are also impossible.

derp

do something else

[8lue Wizard]

1cc SA easy while staying above the PoC the entire time.

ReimuC, beat Yamame with 0.4 lives, 1 power. GO'd by fleeing midboss Parsee. (timed out first attack 'cuz I was out of power)

This is actually kinda fun.

Did SA Stage 6 while above PoC with ReimuC. Cleared with 2 lives left. Pretty fun! Messed up Blazing Star and got lazy on the last noncard. Can you safespot Blazing Star where Utsuho shoots the yellow bullets? I know you can on her first card, although you die when she shoots suns.

I also tried using MarisaB; her Metal and Earth shots seem WAY stronger then ReimuC, as well as her bomb. I beat it with her too and saved the replay, but it was far more lazy and less skillful then my ReimuC run, so I didn't upload that one. With MarisaB its much easier to just bomb through the entire thing and not actually try very hard.

[DgBarca]

Never do that again
(may desync on stage)

[Helix ⑨]

'Lunatic Insanity mode': Play on lunatic difficulty, crossing your arms over (shoot button with right hand and movement with left hand), while having the monitor turned upside down and listening to every possible UN Owen was Her remix possible with the volume at maximum.

[Bananamatic]

crossing your arms over (shoot button with right hand and movement with left hand)

I'm left handed and I play like that all the time :V

[Helix ⑨]

you actually sit there with your arms in an X shape? o.O

[Bananamatic]

Want a video?  :V

[Alfred F. Jones]

StB no-focus, no-charging (comes with no-focus, really) run. Any scene in level 8 or higher.

I recall that someone did Kaguya's 9-7 this way.

[Helix ⑨]

Want a video?  :V

that would be awesome

[ebarrett]

StB no-focus, no-charging (comes with no-focus, really) run. Any scene in level 8 or higher.

I recall that someone did Kaguya's 9-7 this way.

8-3, 8-5, 9-4 and EX-5 should be reasonably doable. Not that I'll actually try.

Also if someone did Kaguya's 9-7 this way they were cheating since 9-7 is Eirin's.  :V

Oh, my bad. 9-6.

... you know, Seamless Ceiling of Kinkaku-ji. :3

1612 pictures. I've only captured it once.

ONCE.

ONCE.

OOONCE.

[LHCling]

StB no-focus, no-charging (comes with no-focus, really) run. Any scene in level 8 or higher.

10-7

Only so many of these are possible...

[CK Crash]

-Beat some danmakufu scripts after pressing page up to increase the FPS.

-Beat SA on any difficulty, vertical only. Yes, that means bombing on Kisume.

-Devil Sign "World in Nightmare" after taking a bunch of pictures during the invincible phase.

-Elixir "Mercury Sea" no photo timeout.

-SWR/Hisoutensoku arcade mode 1CC using only one move. (Preferably Patchouli's ↓→ butt slide attack for added silliness)

[LHCling]

1cc SA easy while staying above the PoC the entire time.

Stage 2 is the biggest problem. Parsee will eat away at your Power and Lives until you can't even capture anything. This leads to loss of Life Fragments, which leads to a quicker death. Stage 3 is certainly interesting though... Guess I'll just do random Stage runs instead  :V

Stage 5 and GOAST WHEELS.

[Chainsaw Guitar]

-SWR/Hisoutensoku arcade mode 1CC using only one move.

That's already been done before in IaMP. (Sorta/not really, but it's not too big of a challenge.)

I imagine It'd be a lot easier in SWR/UNL because of the super lenient graze times.
