Touhou: Blossom Blade

A remaster of the origin point for the doujin circle Ankake Spa, creators of Touhou: Scarlet Curiosity and Touhou: New World has hit the scene! Konpaku Youmu stars in a stage-based 3D bullet hell action game with an emphasize on simple but satisfying controls. Story Konpaku Youmu works as the gardener, security, and swordsmanship instructor for Saigyouji Yuyuko, mistress of Hakugyokurou. One day, upon Youmu scolding her mistress for slacking off in her training, Yuyuko told her "with your lack of skill, there won't be any training." Yuyuko then challenged her to prove herself by defeating the shrine maiden who'd resolved Gensokyo's incidents time and time again: She was to go and defeat Hakurei Reimu. Youmu wasn't happy with this, but showing awareness of her inexperience, she accepted her mistress's conditions and set off for Gensokyo. Will she be able to overcome the dangers awaiting her, defeat Reimu, and prove her skills to Yuyuko? Gameplay Use Three Skills to Clear Stages and Beat Bosses! Youmu has three skills that each have their own strong points – movement, area damage, and range, as well as high-damage Spell Card. They'll come in handy when clearing stages if used well! For example, your dash skill can help extend your jump range as well as do damage, and your ranged skill can defeat troublesome foes waiting on the other side of gaps. Farm Combos to Turn the Tides Continuing to hit enemies will raise your combo counter, granting bonuses to your score and skill recharge rate. The latter bonus lets you use your skills much more often, making battles much easier. Difficulty Options Play on Easy, Hard, or Normal; whichever suits your skill level. Music Touhou: Blossom Blade features Touhou arranges from Shoichiro Sakamoto, AKA Sound Sepher, to make stages feel even more alive. What's New to the Steam Version? Each Skill Has its Own Button! Previously, you toggle between between Youmu's three skills as you fought, but the skill controls have been updated to be more intuitive.
