Touhou Scarlet Labyrinth Release (EoSD 20th Anniversary)

[buskerdog]

Today is "EoSDay", the 20th anniversary of Touhou 6! To commemorate the occasion I released a short fangame that re-imagines the early stages of the game.

It's a metroidvania-like twin-stick shooter where you explore the Scarlet Devil Mansion and fight in bullet hellish combat, and it even features a boss fight! The music was arranged by Forger343.

You can find the game (and additional screenshots) here: https://buskerdog.itch.io/touhou-scarlet-labyrinth.

The planned idea was a game where you could explore the entire mansion and fight all of its iconic residents in homage to Touhou 6, but I never would have had enough time to finish all of that by the anniversary date, so instead I focused on just the first part of the game. I also had to cut down on certain other quality enhancements. Nevertheless I received some very positive feedback, and I may update the game in the future to encompass the complete idea I had originally envisioned! However I may also decide not to, it depends... Still, I hope you all enjoy the experience I prepared!

Happy EoSDay!
