Favorite Fangame Ever!
« on: September 04, 2010, 01:37:08 PM »
:D Do you have a favorite fangame? Maybe from this forum site or maybe just outside of this site (japanese, english etc)?

A Mario redone fangame with a favorite character? A new fangame of Touhou with original character, crossover and etc etc??

Is it a fangame of a completely different series??? Post here you're favorite fangame and maybe why other than that fact it has you favorite character ^o^!!

My favorite fangame has to be Touhou Fantasy made (and yet to be complete) by Xenomic, cTc for obivous reasons and Phantasm Romance (despite having no plot whatsoever).

I also have a PW fangame I like bvut at the moment the name is blank in my head.

I love New Super Marisa Land and PatchCon. Both are adorable games with great music.

I don't know if I'd call it my favorite fan game ever, but I do enjoy Fortune Star Panic. I'm a sucker for puzzle games.

Beyond that, the demo of Eastern Starlight Romance is really nice.

I haven't played a whole lot of fangames, but I think my favorite still stands as Komajou Densetsu ~ Scarlet Symphony. It has awesome character redesigns, a wonderful soundtrack, and the gameplay is fun. Plus it features my favorite Touhou group, the SDM cast.

Other than that, I've been having a good deal of fun with Labyrinth of Touhou, though I usually don't play RPGs. While the original art is...pretty ugly (thank God for Special Disk), the soundtrack is solid and the boss battles can be about as hectic as the original games (for different reasons, of course).

- Phantasm Romance 2.5 Plus, made by Len (I'm looking forward to Phantasmagoria Trues, from the same author)
- PatchCon, made by Tasofro
neku: now for something important.
Translations.
How much time do you guys think it will take for HM to be translated? Besides everyone's story modes and the whole menus, there's also the fact that the way HM's programmed is different from all other games. I bet it'll take two months.

lusvik: I don't mind about playing HM in japanese. The language of punching other people is international.

New Super Marisa Land
Genius of Sappherios
PatchCon (I guess, I don't play that as much as I did before)

But, I love Kakutou Densetsu more than I do the above three. It's like mugen and river city ransom had a baby or something. The community that was behind most of the character/stage creation and such used to be pretty decent several years ago, now it doesn't seem like there's much talk of it anymore. Looks like I'm a little late to the party with this one...

If it counts, Moemon is also a favorite fangame of mine, it's actually the only reason why I was able to pick up and play Pokemon games again.

So many people like patchcon... I'm honestly not sure if there is simply something I am not getting about that game. Please confirm. Basically you have 3 types of units per stage, and you tell danmaku to engage the flying enemies, mel?e to engage the danmaku, and flying to engage mel?e right.. There is not much strategy besides that and replenishing the characters you lose (the right element I mean).
Or does more happen further in the game?

Anyway my fave is touhou labyrinth.

It might be more the sheer insanity some battles can get once you have a lot of units and a lot of enemies at once, plus there are a lot of different units with different skills so it's not just some rock-paper-scissors thing.

Pretty much this. It's a simple to learn but the hard to master kind of game. And the zerg rushes in higher difficulties are terrifying and amusing at the same time. And the voices...good lord..the voices. So freaking adorable.

My favorite fangame... hmmm...

Well, it's not out yet, but there's a Kirby one that's looking /very/ promising whose name escapes me. (I think it's Cosmic Chaos or somethin' like that)

And I've got a soft-spot for Touhoumon Emerald (AnjiruSensei's Normal/Hard version etc.) and New Super Marisa Land, if only because Suwarisa looks so damn cute.

And Touhou Labyrinth's a great game, too. It helps give me that grindy, RPG-y, dungeoncrawler-y kick when I'm too lazy to play Persona 3 or Digital Devil Saga (or, in the case of P3, too lazy to plan out my days and whatnot).

Not sure if this counts as a fangame, but Desktop Dungeons is pretty fun/hellishly difficult~

I started the development for Kirby Cosmic Chaos a few years ago! :D Though I left the team to start my own project.  My friends are still continuing it and even added Cirno and Marisa to the game as Kirby's helpers.

I wonder how I overlooked Mystical Chain...

But yeah, that's another good one.

Touhoumon, but that wins by default since it's the only Touhou fangame I've played. I've seen videos of MegaMari, but the concept of dodging danmaku in a sidescroller makes me want to crap my pants.

MegaMari, probably.  Genius of Sappheiros is turning out pretty awesome, though.

Megamari is my first, and still one of my faves even after how ever long it's been. Komajou: Scarlet Symphony is also fantastic, even if the unlimited flying bugs me. When ever I play, I don't even use it (you can actually get through the whole game without it!) Genius of Saphieros seems pretty good to and I really hope there's an English patch soon.

As for non Touhou, ALLTYNEX Second and anything by Astro Port.

I haven't played many fangames.
Only Mystical Chain and Touhoumon, with a few other flash games.
I never cleared either of them though.
Mystical Chain because I failed in Stage 5 Lunatic and didn't want to bother with building up those companion points again.
And Touhoumon because I accidentally overwrote my save file while I was on six island.

I didn't want to overwhelm everyone.

Also: The trick to Rumia: Watch her shoes or her ribbon. And if you're going for Der Secret, remember her ribbon is on the (your) right side of her head when she's facing you.

Still working on it, but I gave Onthenet a beta version for his birthday. Keep an eye on Rika's Garage, since a demo release should be fairly soon. I wanted to keep it mostly secret so the hype wouldn't backfire, but meh...
As for the topic, I actually have no idea. I haven't played enough Touhou fangames to really pick a favorite.

I recommend Koumajou Densetsu and MegaMari, personally.
