Touhou Dystopian

“The music often escalates during boss fights, reinforcing the rhythm of combat and lending an operatic energy to the battles.”

“Absolute gorgeous renditions of Zun's original tracks that both capture the essence of the original music, while adding that uniqueness that each Touhou doujin music circle has brought to their own covers.”

“The sound design completes the immersion with a driving electronic soundtrack that channels both modern roguelike momentum and Touhou’s signature melodic flair.”

“The graphics are very pretty, and I really enjoy a lot of the effects that the characters have (especially Flandre's ult).”

“It captures the energy and personality of the Touhou aesthetic—colorful, mystical, and brimming with supernatural tension—while grounding it in modern action gameplay that emphasizes reflex, adaptation, and experimentation.”

“The visuals are also a breath of fresh air and it's impressive that the models look as good as they do because more often than not that's hard to pull off with Touhou when you try going the 3D route.”

“Good gameplay and simple to understand, multiple characters (4, although some more would be pretty cool), and honestly a pretty good amount of content considering the cheap price. The only downside might be the optimization; it's not that bad but could use some work. It recently got a performance update, which means the dev is actually listening to feedback, so that's cool.”

“Technical performance is generally smooth, though a few users have reported minor frame rate inconsistencies or interface scaling issues on certain hardware, particularly handheld systems like the Steam Deck.”

“I will say though, the full release did well to improve the game's optimization because I recall when I played the demo I experienced massive frame drops from just looking at a tree or a single direction even though there didn't seem to be anything heavy going on graphically. Now, in the full game, those issues appear to be gone; well done, devs!”

“The game is beautiful, the combat is pretty polished and fun, the characters are well implemented and portrayed, and the random roguelike elements and gameplay keep the game interesting and replayable.”

“Speaking of, the amount of build variety and roguelike nature of the game seriously adds to the replayability factor, I could see myself sinking hundreds of hours into this game.”

“Its combination of polish, customization, and replay value makes it a standout example of how fan-influenced works can transcend homage and become distinctive experiences in their own right.”

“Good game, just finished all the seal difficulty. My only request/hope is that they can add more interaction with the story.”

“The narrative exists largely as a backdrop, conveyed through brief scenes and environmental cues rather than an evolving story.”

“Fortunately, the game doesn't really pretend to have a story aside from it being a Touhou game. It knows that you are here to beat goons up as an admittedly small cast of Touhous.”

“Kill things but with either one of the angry immortal girl, funny magician, serious gardener, or that Ronald McDonald vampire girl.”

“It's funny because this $10 game brings me way more joy than most of these $60/$70 titles.”

“Funny game.”

“The art style, atmosphere, and presentation are all great and beautiful.”

“Music features lots of great remixes of classic 2HO tracks, enhancing the game's atmosphere.”

“Enemy attacks have clear and contrasting cues, contributing to a clean and immersive combat experience.”

“Game runs great.”

“Runs great on the Steam Deck, albeit at 50fps.”
