Basic Gameplay[]

Touhou Danmakufu plays like original Touhou series.

There are 6 game modes: All, Single, Plural, Stage, Directory, and Random.

  • All lists all the available scripts.
  • Single lists all the available single-file scripts.
  • Plural lists all the available multi-file scripts.
  • Stage lists all the available stage scripts.
  • Directory browses the script folder.
  • Random plays one of the available scripts at random.

Scoring Rate[]

The bare score is not directly added to your score in Touhou Danmakufu. Scoring rate, which is shown at left-bottom of the game field, is multiplied to the gained score. Scoring rate fluctuates based on the following conditions:

  • Shot increases the scoring rate by bits.
  • Getting a spell card adds 2 to the scoring rate and the upper bound.
  • Losing a life decrease 25% of the scoring rate.

The scoring rate will increase up to the upper bound as cherry point of Perfect Cherry Blossom.

Character Statistics[]

By default, there are two characters to choose from, each of which have two styles of attack. The player decides which character to play and which attack type to use before playing a script. User-defined characters can be added in version 0.12 or later.
