天下制覇

As usual, I’ve been slacking when it comes to Comiket stuff.

The two promos above are Hitsuji Shitsuji Meat Sheep from Top Arts Plan, which formerly brought you that crazy-ass River City Ransom-esque Kunio-esque Touhou party brawler. Now it is making Meatboy clones with an anthropomorphic sheepgirl sending her legions of sheep to their doom. It’s certainly a step sideways. The latter of the two is the aforementioned Touhou Sky Arena expansion adding Flandre, Udonge, Moukou (eventually), and apparently a whole lot of electric guitar. And since I’ve been slacking super hard lately, we move right on to…

The Devil of Decline from Strawberry Bose, previously known for The Genius of Sappheiros, a SaGa clone (recently translated too). While nearly graphically identical, it uses a revamped sort of equippable stand system, although some of the shikigamis look a little… weird. The latter is Night Veil of the Mysterious Moon from Desunoya, who has done a number of decent, if unremarkable platformers in the past. Aside from the fairly lame looking bosses and the kind of bland graphical style, it doesn’t look half bad though.

In less exciting news, there’s also the sequel to The Light You Saw, which was pretty much Just Another SHMUP^tm, but it is pretty. And finally, there’s Dystopia, an SRPG which appears to be a clone of Alicesoft’s Mamanyonyo of all things, although I know I’ve seen that general style before too.

And lastly of general interest, there’s Gatling Cat’s Sanae and Momie with Ibarakasen, another sort of genericish but fun-for-at-least-an-hour-or-so Touhou platformer from them. Mikan Douwa’s Heroine Carnival, which looks like their previous Touhou Pocket Wars vs RPG expanded into a full RPG. No PV for that though, just various screens.

There’s the usual lesser creatures too, like Gensokyo Tower Defense… 2! And a Virtua-on clone with horribly modeled SRW characters battling it out on what could charitably be called polygons. Now then, back to doing nothing on a Wednesday. Although that stupid Hoshikaka OVA is supposed to be out by now…
