Just show us a screenshot of your work at this point. Why are you all like "we have rebuilt the colossus of rhodes and we need YOUR help"

because they need it, if you see they need a writer, someone knowledgeable of touhoulogy, a connoisseur of gensokyo lore, that knows every aspect of japans culture and religion in the game, what better place than this to find one

Thank you! Besides just trusting myself on Touhou lore is a terrible idea as i could either go off to much head canon or might need someone to tell me or correct me on how a level looks


Besides i could use help on getting Touhou 20s level references, as the most we have at this point is a pyramid, but I can't really say for sure how it truly looks in there
So I can't promise it looks fully accurate without any canon or sources to really know what it looks like inside, sorry

And ya i figure here when i first came would have people who understand the characters enough to know how to model
Why was i so depsrate?

Sad story but the last models i had for Touhou 6 were AI generated by a person and were all 40 dollars each so that's why I was secretly seeking out someone to replace them for Touhou models without ai AND TRUST ME i can show you how bad the backs of them look and how some of even the hair and stuff gets messed up

So all in all i wanted a better solution to this, so i wanst stuck with ai models

And other than that, I wanted someone who can stick with me consistently to model, so I didn't have to worry about styles changing if a modeler I was hireing before hand was gone

It just would really look strange if I hired modeler after modeler and the touhous looked to different ya know?

So if anyone reads this does this make my plea look more understandable?
 
May i also add that who better to ask to model Touhou characters? Than people who are around here who would know both the fronts and backs of touhou characters, by the way

always have in hand downgrade things, dont be afraid of cutting rss from where you consider, as well changing from 3d to 2d could be more of a blessing than a burden or a downgrade for the game,

for where you could found someone to work i could not tell you much, but if you really want people to work on what you want to do, be direct and honest with your posts, "i need these people to help me with this" clear and simple whether money man, i mean its touhou, many youngers and not so youngers want to make projects with touhou girls, because its easy, you dont have to pay anything and it gives good visibility, but you have to be clear and direct, people will appreciate that, even better if you can describe rolls like "need a level designer, someone that has played the original games got some time in the comunity and can help us with the designing of our levels and characters" just as simple, trust me, if you make your posts very clean, clear of what you want, even better than the payment people will aprecciate something more concrete, that you show them you know what you want to do and how, that will help you atract more honest people that would really help you...

also, bro this is not the 2000s, i hope that you were just not thinking on get in touch with people just in this threat, i mean if you want people to help you look for other groups of developers on reddit discord look in other hubs that are not for touhou but for development, or even if its for investors xD unlikely you will found of them here, we struggle with sustening our own shrine :KoishiSip: consider a kick starter, but yeah you will need more than just 3 scale model so consider that too, work in your inpretion... well good luck man...

Hmm, that sounds like a plan. Funny story, how I came here was from one of those places that told me to seek out help in a fan thread, might have misread it, but I'm fine with just showing progress as things go on here

As for the above, I've done a lot of that already. In fact, I watered things down to 1 playable for a reason. The old style was too chaotic, so I had to move it to just 1 story, 1 playable to make it a lot easier on myself, not just models-wise, but combos-wise (Thus they were scraped to plot characters in the sequel since I didn't like the idea of how messy the first was gonna get tbh)

My hope here as of rn is to seek advice on: characterization and locations, since I'm not really sure where to look for some places in Touhou
Besides, I might want to have some scripts reviewed, so ik if I'm getting a character right or wrong, it's gonna take trial and error, but I'm cool with that, I can take criticism

Kickstarter-wise, once I have a demo out ill give it a shot id rather do that once I have gameplay to show people so they can see where the money is going, so it's not just a good pitch that sounds good without any proof
 
Will admit it tho i do need to be clearer. I'm new to forums, so I gotta maybe work on note-taking before posting. I'll do that next time. I'll also take time to edit the start and thread name to make things clearer once the playable is arted? ill show that off even in the thread start, so all can see then when the model is made that will be showen as well!

You may of miss read game line-up does not = the story goes across all those, that's just plans to do with the very models after there's not gonna be story boarded till I finish the first and 2nd one anyway

I do understand where that misunderstanding comes from but after the sequal it, they are their own things

And please be more patient, like I said, this will be a while, besides it's meant to be made within the span of like 2-3 years,

Ik your doubtful, probably because you have heard of things like this before that never saw the light of day, but please, I urge you to have patience with me, as next year will be the year gameplay is not only showcased, but ill have test demos out for everyone here to try!

So please give me time

I think it's a pretty ambitious project
I think this is valid criticism

Thanks and no worrys i can understand where the criticism comes from. I just have to point out a few things about it that might have been misconstrued, because as i replyed its not a mega thing. The first 2 games are the only ones that will line up story-wise. After that, it's just gonna be their own stories and stuff, which will not be started till i finish the first 2 as id rather make sure i focus my manpower into the now rather than the then

And ofc no worries like I said to the other one in reply i have watered down things immensely for the very reason before coming here, by the way

You know that you are not allowed to crowdfund fangames as per TSA guidelines...
 
Do not worry, I have not set up any crowdfunding campaigns at all, even as of yet, and I will not in the future either
There is a Ko-Fi, but that's not a crowdfunding thing and is only for donations, and also i use it pay the artist (With my own money, there are no donations yet and no one is forced to donate it is an option, but any and all donations will only go to my own characters)
 
I deeply apologize, I had no idea I fixed a lot of things up. I really am sorry tbh
Speaking of, here's the koi fi. If anything else here breaks those guidelines, please let me know, and I will rush to edit it

I wanna make it very clear to respect teh guidlines any donations here only go to songs for my characters or art, and these will only be for fun


In-game stills will be a self-paid thing (if you recall Touhou and how they have stills)

So ya hope this can comply with the guidlines i wanna be as transparent as possible

Oh I see sounds good
 
oh ya and for those who wonder, the model styles will go as follows:
Low poly for touhous
And for my character, who is the playable
Detailed and gritty (This is also why he will be expensive)
(As you can see, its ment to show the clashing styles)
(I figured low poly can fit touhous whimsical magical feel)
And as I said, next year I'll be providing test demos for people to try. Once that happens, feel free to be as critical as you wish (like feel free to let me know of any crashes or so and i will be sure to note all of it down)
As for any stuff as of rn
2 days till the 2nd half of the underground map (Chireiden)
Then August shall be the bamboo forest map (with enetai in the middle)
I shall be back in a few weeks with screenshots of Chireiden's updates. I look forward to showcasing the progress per! Thank you for your patience!
(And yes once the ui is ready ill show that 2)
 
Alright, the 2nd half of the underground map is in production
Screenshots will come within 2 weeks
Thank you for your patience!

(To be clear this will still be levels atm)

(But also models that are made along the way thos will take about 1 to 2 weeks per but ill show progress on them)
