About the Game

Touhou Renkyouto is a linear top-down bullet hell title starring the green-eyed Parsee Mizuhashi. Adventure through five original levels, from the Underworld to the surface and back again, to solve an incident involving stray spirits causing chaos, and maybe help Parsee realize her love along the way.

Story

"It's festival day in the Former Capital. The perfect day to finally confess my feelings to her!"

However, all is not well when Parsee encounters a few errant spirits ruining the festival and her confession along with it. She has to be the one to solve this seemingly simply incident, but what of the incident within her heart?

"Don't worry, it'll be fine! Nothing could go wrong in such a nice day."

Will she make it in time before the festivai is over? Venture forth to the oft ignored parts of the land of Gensokyo, from the streets of Former Hell, to the Forest of Magic, the Garden of the Sun and the Palace of Earth Spirits.

Gameplay & Features

Touhou Renkyouto is a bullet hell fangame based on the world-renowned Touhou Project. Unlike many other bullet hell games, Touhou Renkyouto focuses both on verticality and horizontality. You'll be free to explore the 5 levels included in the game, save for the occasional bullet coming your way from any direction. Every level has unique enemies with unique bullet patterns to learn and (hopefully) dodge.

After defeating an enemy, you'll get to collect the P-points dropped by them to power up Parsee's attack. With enough P-points, you'll also be able to get out of a tricky situation by bombing your way out and clearing the screen of those pesky bullets. At the end of every level is a tricky boss fight, each complete with several intricate bullet patterns, which will require all your wits and P-points to beat.

At the end of every level, you'll be able to buy a new items from a pool of 14 unique items. Your friendly neighborhood scam artist trader will provide you with the goods. Use these well to navigate through the difficult later stages (or don't, if you're looking for a challange)!

A word from the developers

Team Minty&Cabbages is a small two-person team with lots of love for the Touhou Project. We did our best to give an enjoyable experience whether you're a fan of Touhou or you're just someone looking for a shoot 'em up.

Arzvet did the programming, sound design and the character pixel art.

The Cabbage Preacher did the character sprites, stage art, dialogue and gametesting. "I hope that this game will be enjoyed as much as the John Brown Isekai."

We hope that you'll have a good time playing our game.
