Title: 東方偽現越 ~ Lost the Leader
Post by: Chronojet ⚙ Dragon on September 16, 2014, 03:27:33 PM
Oh, goodness... Another project x_x
People are making full games nowadays and I feel kinda left out... No longer!

This one's gonna be made in Danmakufu ph3, just like how I believe most others are right now...
Times will change, before I left I completely refused to even learn ph3, so... yeah!



Current Version:   α2.00
Download here. (http://www.bulletforge.org/u/miransu-uwabami/p/lost-the-leader-trial/v/alpha_200)
Stage 1 only. Normal mode only. No main menu script made yet (core Danmakufu menu used instead)

Information
東方偽現越 ~ Lost the Leader is created by the small group "Team Alt. End," using Touhou Danmakufu ph3 as the engine.
All characters are property of Team Shanghai Alice and we do not intend to claim ownership of them in any way whatsoever.
Note that all music and character arts available in the data have been investigated to be free for use in non-commercial works.

How to play:
1) Extract all files from zipped folder
2) Navigate to "Lost the Leader" folder → "th_dnh_ph3" folder.
3) Open th_dnh.exe
4) Select "All". There should be only one option from then on - keep pressing confirm key until game starts.
5) ?
6) Profit.

There was a trial version uploaded, but I have it unlisted and will be uploading another one soon.
> If you do not mind being spoiled, here it is. (http://www.bulletforge.org/u/miransu-uwabami/p/lost-the-leader-final-stage-trial/v/trial) The video is also unlisted too, but you can watch it if you want. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl2xMJyH5QE)
The reason for this is that I made the final stage before going in order, which was a big mistake on my part...

But for now, stay tuned... Updates to come.

Saw this posted on the Touhou subreddit, looks nice from what's there so far.

When I try to beat Flandre by using bombs most of the time, the program crashes.

Is there a specific point it does that?

It's when her health is low and she starts using the Massacre Le Maul spell card.

I'm having a really hard time replicating this....

This error only seems to happen some of the time because it did not happen to me yesterday. Do you want me to post the problem signature?

Please do. Hopefully it'd help track down the problem...

You just made Flandre a stage 1 boss without reason, just like Yuyuko. Why? :(

Post by: Chronojet ⚙ Dragon on September 27, 2014, 07:45:36 AM
Woah hey, slow down there. Unlike Flandre here, Yuyuko did have a reason to be a stage 1 boss. Or at least, in Ten Desires, she did. She lit the way for the heroine. x3

Flandre is more of a demonstration of the new timeline that Marisa finds herself in... a timeline in which Reimu had never existed.

Yuyuko's reason in TD was because the Heroines, except Youmu,  thought being that it's spirit related, they'd check on a certain a prior incident causer who lives in the Netherworld.
Yuyuko's reason for Youmu was essentially a "You shall not pass" kind of thing, which has been in the games since IaMP, if either of them wants to leave, they have to fight. (At least from my observation.)

Ex and final bosses become stage 1 bosses! The shocking horror!

On a serious note. I am quite sure Miransu has reasons for it. Just watch warmly for the full game + plot to arrive. Hard to judge the story based on 1 stage/boss :V

Concealed the Conclusion made Flandre a stage 1 midboss but I don't recall anyone complaining about that.

Besides, all it might mean is that Flandre isn't using her full strength. Or it could actually be for a completely different reason that's special about this game. It will all make sense I'm sure.

Thx for explanation! Also I like Flan's stage and boss song!

I'm looking forward for it! Can't wait to know the music's names, because I'm excited to extend them!

That reminds me.

I forgot to add the little effect that scrolls the BGM name across the bottom of the screen (top right in the case of PCB), so those will be available, hopefully, by the next trial.

Speaking of which, the next trial version will include Stage 2, and if I can get enough time, an alpha main menu.

Stage 3 will be held off for the time being, as I AM making a separate project with another user. (@ people I've talked to about that project: No spoilers, please.)

Stage 2's boss is finished. The midboss and stage will be in progress soon.

Since I've been making music in some of my spare time (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,17546.0.html), some of my attention has been diverted from Lost the Leader... Making a full game OST sure is hard!

After a not-so-short hiatus, I've begun coding stage 3.

When I try to beat Flandre by using bombs most of the time, the program crashes.

This is fixed.

Stage 3 is almost done -- Another demo will be released once the stage script is finished.

Unfortunately, the main menu will have to wait for another demo, or the full script, depending on whether there needs to be another demo or not.
