Well that's because there is no demo and seems like he don't plan to release one. The game itself is good and gets pretty hard in the later stages :D. Only bad thing is that it is a Comiket only release I really hope Zun makes a reprint for doujin shops.

Dodging pattern and making photos at the same time is really a neat game idea.

If this game is anything near as accomplished as his others, I'd be surprised if it doesn't get a broader release.

The idea sounds so incredibly fun. Like the Zero/Fatal Frame of shooters. :D

I'd seriously love it if someone could get ahold of the OSTs for the Touhou games.
The world would be a better place if there were less shooters and more dot-eaters.

You can use a software to rip out the in-game BGM, or play them directly without ripping them out, if you want.

And forget about other fan made Touhou OST. They're mostly made of crap and lose.

Man, this game is one of the most addictive shmup. Really cool idea/gameplay that's never been done before. Highly recomended.

Damn...those are some very stunning visuals.

I'd like to buy this game someday.

But not now, my school's finals are in a week and a half, and I can't let a newly acquired game distract me from getting high scores on my finals. :wink:

As Landshark says - is it possible to buy from anywhere? I'd like this to add to my Imperishable Night cab.

Uh...no. And not ever, unless ZUN changes his mind about it.

Or you can just by the original OSTs released by ZUN. :wink:

I don't think its for sale on online shops yet... but it should be available eventually at Himeya or paletweb. Your best bet for now is having a contact in japan who went to that last comiket (last week).... other than that there is always the net :? :wink:

Shoot the Bullet can apparently be preordered now at Paletweb and Himeya.
As always, Paletweb is the cheaper solution.
