I can't seem to run the demo...what file do I click? I don't see any executables, and the batch files dissappear after a second.

Achii · « **Reply #34 on:** July 14, 2009, 12:05:28 AM »

I think it's win32 or win64 depending on your OS

You need to have Java 6 installed. If you still get errors: Open the .bat file in notepad and add a line with the word "pause".

Loli Belmont.
DO EEEEEET

Dizzy H. "Muffin" Muffin · « **Reply #39 on:** July 14, 2009, 06:33:30 PM »

Yeah, but add a Belmont where, exactly?

Suikama · « **Reply #40 on:** July 14, 2009, 08:28:21 PM »

Extra Boss?

Zengar Zombolt · « **Reply #41 on:** July 14, 2009, 10:22:12 PM »

Super-sekrit character, so you can do a "What is a man?" sketch with Remilia.

~~Let's make Loli Belmont some person roaming around the mansion randomly and looking for Remilia and Sakuya complains that's her job? or something...~~

or she's just near the entrance of the gate warning on you

Dizzy H. "Muffin" Muffin · « **Reply #44 on:** July 15, 2009, 02:53:39 AM »

I was thinking an NPC who'd be a "rival" for Sakuya. Maybe a late boss, kinda like Lady in Devil May Cry 3 ... Though the more I think about it, the more I feel kind of opposed to the idea. Shouldn't we be worrying about more important things first?

Achii · « **Reply #45 on:** August 11, 2009, 06:26:31 AM »

Hey guys, I was doing some round about sketches when someone showed me this

We got upp'd :<

I just found that too and was about to post it... :<

I wouldn't worry too much about that, personally. It's doing "Castlevania (i.e. no particular ties to canon), except with Reimu and sort-of Marisa." We're doing "Touhou (i.e. fan-created backstory of canon), with a Castlevania setup."

anonl · « **Reply #48 on:** August 15, 2009, 08:32:00 AM »

Just means we've got to be a bit more original.

On that note, the game design still has a few holes (what kinds of magic besides throwing knives does Sakuya get?) and things that are semi decided but only appear in this thread. It would be better if we put concrete design proposals on the wiki. That'd also protect against loli-Belmont thread derail

Note: Google code wiki's can only be edited by project members (but non-members can add comments to pages). Anyone can PM me with a google account email and I'll add them as a member.

Achii · « **Reply #49 on:** August 15, 2009, 01:45:38 PM »

How exactly can we add to this wiki? :x

Google code only allows project members to edit the wiki, so I need to add you as a member first. But I need your gooogle account email to do that...

In appreciation of 09/09/09 I've put together a new (Cirno themed) release.

The test stage of older versions has been replaced by a small snow stage with Cirno as the final boss. All new content has been created in the span of maybe 3 days (thanks to the awesomeness of my level editor and the awfulness of my art).

Download (Gameplay Video)

Download is a self-extracting archive (requires Java 6).

Great work, the 'sun' killed me, haha~ I also like her attack that fills the entire field (the sparkles)!

Achii · « **Reply #54 on:** September 12, 2009, 05:58:32 AM »

Haha that's amazing!

Also...Tir, by any chance you can sprite? I made a few animation templates for the sprite but I really lack the time to work on the real Sakuya sprite

Tir · « **Reply #55 on:** September 14, 2009, 01:15:57 PM »

Yes I can (I did the little sprites in the F/SN minigame you saw) but I'm not a pro, so you'll have to give me an example and might have to touch them up here and there ^^.

Achii · « **Reply #56 on:** September 20, 2009, 10:44:33 PM »

Ok then, although, I'll wait till you're not sick anymore D:
Everyone is getting sick nowadays T_T;

I'm just wondering for the atmosphere approach we're doing, I was randomly brainstorming for enemies and even asked someone to help me and we came up with dumb but funny concepts, then I just realized. Are we going to work on a serious tone here like Castlevania or the cuteness and fluffiness of Touhou?

Let's not take ourselves too seriously. Part of the appeal of Touhou is its cast of weird characters.

Achii · « **Reply #58 on:** September 25, 2009, 12:18:38 AM »

Hm if that's the case, it should be easy. I'm going to post the enemy concepts that was given to me, but I was thinking that due to the fact we shouldn't have original characters, I thought about how to recycle the cast. For example:

Meiling a lot of show time, such as in the entrance and garden boss
Patchouli and Koakuma is in the library
Dungeon for Flandre
Remilia for the Dining Room, her room, then the clock tower.

Then for the stages it'll be,

The gate entrance -> You can't get in the front door due to the barrier even after defeating Meiling.
Find an alternate entrance by going through the garden, just as soon as you found out a way, Meiling comes in again and stops you. You can wander about the mansion, and you can either go in the dining room first and face remilia but can't proceed on for a while as you will need a key then fight Koakuma and Patchouli in the library and get thrown to the dungeon or the vice versa.

After this, should we include puzzles? What achievements should we have? One thing I could think of is having a complete the map achievement by roaming around the mansion and unlocking special rooms.

For weapon upgrades, I was thinking you get different kinds of knives and the ultimate weapon would be some magically enchanced knife or something that breaks after the Remilia final boss battle or something!

Dizzy H. "Muffin" Muffin · « **Reply #59 on:** September 25, 2009, 02:06:49 AM »

I recommend not doing any achievements or anything yet, just wait until the game's practically done before including 'em.
