The Genius of Sappheiros (Assorted Stuff #3)

So I’ve been without internet for about a week, just getting it back today. Since there’s been a few changes, and a few things I want to mention, I’ll make another one of these things. Inside is (mostly) The Genius of Sappheiros: a madly fun Toho RPG, Continuum Shift II (arcade), and I don’t know what else. Videogames.

“Blazblue: Continuum Shift” Valkenhayn Gameplay!! New Challengers Trailer [update w/ slo-mo video]

Slayer/Talbain mix. It seems like whenever he uses the werewolf, his meter drains. #wheresmyplatinum

New Super Marisa Land Download Link

Surely most people who wanted it have it by now, but I figured ‘why the hell not make a blogpost’. Also referred to as 6kinoko.

It’s been uploaded already to Mediafire, and I’ve mirror’d to Megaupload. Enjoy.

Touhou 12.8 Download Link! 「妖精大戦争 ~ 東方三月精」 “The Great Fairy Wars”

If it’s real that is..! I’m downloading it now to check, but who’s to say you all can’t as well? If it’s real, I’m getting multiple confirmations that this link is real!! Download speed is in constant flux, so when it’s finished, I’ll upload it to something more stable like Megaupload.

Megaupload link finished!! Download here. Enjoy your storngest game.

The Great Fairy Wars: TH12.8 screens and video!

Download should be around the internet sometime tonight/tomorrow, I’ll be sure to bring it out asap! But first!!

Get more screens here as they upload them, and the gameplay video is here. UPDATE!!: LIVE FOOTAGE HERE.

Valkenhayn (and Platinum?) Officially Announced, Sprites

Intentionally blurred I suppose, but there he is. Hard to tell what’s going on here, but it seems like he has his own meter for what I expect to be his werewolf-related drive. Pretty baller! Also, it seems he will be released in September, so supposedly, Platinum would be in October.

On the other hand, there’s this screenshot:

…which looks like it could be Platinum, if only because it doesn’t look like anyone else and the name in the corner seems like it. Hakumen is pretty obvious, so it doesn’t seem too difficult to tell if it was someone else.

More screenshots (and source) here.

Makoto leaked for 360, due today on PS3. Also: Unlimited Makoto Footage

So people with 360′s are downloading their Makoto at this very moment, and PS3 users have to wait till the afternoon for the Playstation Store to update. Makoto comes with all 24 colors, and her Unlimited form for no extra cost. How much you wanna bet Microsoft didn’t leak it early just so they could have it sooner than Sony? Well, as long as we actually GET IT TODAY for PS3 and Sony doesn’t screw something else up, then I’m fine with this.

Just a small bit with an Unlimited Distortion. (actually thought it was going to be more but hey.)

Tales of Graces F [PS3]+New Unnamed Tales Announced

A kick in the balls to Wii Graces owners, but an eternal kick in the balls to the western Tales of fanbase, since there’s still no english release set. They’ve committed to new ougi’s, story, and character costumes. Potentially, like Vesperia, new characters.

Also Radiant Mythology 3 in 2011, which is kind of cool I guess. No information on the new Tales game whatsoever, so we’ll have to wait to hear more on that.

Makoto Gameplay, moveset, and Astral Finish!

Makoto’s movelist and Astral Finish video, and impressions beyond the break.

“The Great Fairy Wars” Touhou Project 12.8! Starring Cirno!

From Kourindou, ZUN’s blog:

暑いです。

こんな夏にぴったりのゲームを作りました!
今回のコミケの新作はこちらです。

東方Project 第12.8弾(どこまで刻むのか)
「妖精大戦争 ~ 東方三月精」
です。
チルノが三妖精に宣戦布告を出してさあ大変、というお話。同名の書き下ろしの続きです。

実は「東方三月精 ~ Strange and Bright Nature Deity」第二巻を出す前からゲームを作る予定になっていたのですが(二巻の書き下ろし「妖精大戦争」はそのオープニングストーリーでした)、スケ ジュールや色々なアレから実現出来なかったゲームがようやく完成しました! (嘘、現在完成に向けて鋭意制作中です)
比良坂真琴さんに絵を描いて頂きまして、非常に三月精のゆるーい世界そのものといった感じにする事ができました(あ、もちろん角川さんには許可を頂いていますよ)

しかしてゲーム内容はというと
「チルノが、避けるはずの弾幕を凍らせて進む爽快ゲーム」
みたいな感じで。
遊びたいときに考えなしに短時間でさくっと遊べて、繰り返し遊べる歯ごたえある難易度、大胆なのに緻密なパターン、そんな感じになっています。





(*注 開発中につき画面は変わります)
別にストーリーやキャラを知らなくても遊べる、シンプルかつ大胆、そして自然なシステムで、遊び甲斐のあるゲームとなっていますのでゲームに興味がある方は是非是非。
もちろんコミケで出す物は完成版ですぞ!
あ、夏コミのブースは「二日目、東Aー28a」です。

ああ、まだ完成していないんですけど。

Personally SO PSYCHED, since, of course, it’s starring Cirno. On the other hand, I’m not nearly as psyched as I was for 12.3, probably because that was a fighting game. Either way, rad news! It seems the three mischievous fairies are finally going to be in a real game. Good for them, I guess.
