I was laughing my ass off until I watched the video in the 2nd link. Most man children never try to go this far with their works...

BA DUM TISH
Haha I see what you did there xD

No matter how much I try making up a constructive criticism for this "Thera" game, I can't stop laughing at the awful graphics and sound.

Okay... This is confusing... I just can't describe the game without getting depressed by the slow music or laughing at the stage where you have to fight cakes.

Anyways, I'm not going to bother getting this game, I want to keep my sanity intact.

Holy shit his voice. Shut the vid in 3 seconds. Sounds like he's been inhaling helium.

ChainsawGuitar, will you kindly explain what you meant to us folks who don't have the intestinal fortitude to make it through this video?

I never laughed so hard in quite some time. I'm almost 100% positive that this is a joke. The music should be obvious to this lol.

The music is instant classic. Or even better - instant legend.

It's kind of depressing in a way. I just hope he isn't thinking this is gonna be the next big thing. Also, what video are you guys talking about where he talks? I can't find one anywhere.

This IS Touhou, isn't it?

I played Touhou once and I remember it looking like this. Sounded a little better, though.

AAAAAAAh BulletBall! That guy is so passionate. Too bad it's for such a worthless endeavor. If only he could put that towards something worthwile.

But BulletBallExtreme on the other hand kicks ass!

I've never got why people play these games, they all look bloody awful.

edit: Apart from Space Phallus which I'd buy on JAMMA in a heartbeat.

The thought did enter my mind considering it appears he's changed the music from slightly upbeat midi music to that goddam depressing tune in the trailer. Also the 2nd boss, a girl with bats wings is called Batsy.

However I thought Ild best be polite in my posts just incase the guy really is serious and any bad critism would break his fragile mind. I shouldnt have bothered, as im sure that reading this thread is a 1st class ticket to a padded cell with enough drugs to kill a horse :lol:

We don't have a shmup MUGEN yet, though.

I was going to cut the guy some slack, I thought maybe he was just a kid, but I guess not.
