The primary color scheme of the bullets instantly turns me off. Looks ok though.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, maybe the developers are trying to make the visuals less disorienting throughout because of the amount of bullet hell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytOHXR39YW4

Same here. I'm guessing that maybe it's specifically the yellow that turns me off, but I don't know...

Otherwise, it looks pretty cool.

I just keep thinking of Trix cereal.
Does looks nice in general though. Maybe there's an option to bring up the background brightness a little more, since it seems like some cool detail in it.

Yeah they need to tone down the brightness of the bullet hell because the background detail looks pretty good.

Looks hard as balls, touhou master race need only apply?
Wasn’t thrilled about the character designs or music, but the enemies, backgrounds, patterns, etc all looked good.

Actually the bullets remind me of Sengeki Striker.

Some really nice Touhou looking patterns. Those primary colored bullets still kill it for me though.

I kind of like the colors. They look like gumballs.

Please don't buy this game.

1. This is a bad game in game play according to some top experienced players in China who have played this game before (The game has a old version long before the steam ver.).

2. When a player give a bad comment on steam, he got heavy attack.

And they said in the comments that stg community is shit.

If you care about the game play, there are a lot of goods. Don't waste your time.

At least BGM is good I think

The style of bullet looks like ToHou or Cave, but there is not slowdown when massive bullet coming, playing the Hard difficult, it is so horrrible.

no slowdown is a great idea but it needs to be balanced for it

Touhou gets by just fine without any slowdown. It's pretty much just CAVE from Mushihimesama onwards and games trying to be like CAVE that really embrace slowdown as a game mechanic. Hell, even Crimzon Clover: World Ignition, which in many ways is a love letter to CAVE, doesn't have slowdown (though the original doujin version does, and the NESiCA version has a bit thanks to the hardware not being able to keep up).
