It's been a while. Work got me real good, physically and emotionally, so haven't had much time to do anything else.
Anyways, the demo for this game was released on Steam some time ago, and I only learned of it because the main creator, Mr Blue, asked Haru TH to upload extended versions of the game's music as a sort of advertisement. Needless to say, it works!
Crimson Paraselene is the first game in the 獣伝 (Juuden, Beast Tales) series of danmaku STG, which centers around the world of Lunamara, seemingly inhabited by furries/anthros and youkai alike. The game is not that hard on Easy, but the main gimmick of grazing and youkou (gauge items) to gain resources (focused for bombs, unfocused for lives) is a bit tough to get used to, since similar to Touhou LoLK, you need to put yourself close to harm's way to actually get enough graze to earn resources in Easy mode. But it's workable.
Being a Marisa main, I immediately took to Caroline, straight firepower FTW. And easier to use. Ashter is interesting as a character as well, but his shot-type requires some getting used to, I feel. Nothing wrong of course, and at least both Ashter and Caroline can be mastered.
I must say though, this is the first Touhou-like game that is just straight up Western furry. Every boss character thus far exudes that feel, Sarnari especially. I like it, as it's certainly feel novel in its presentation, and the story and characters are also interesting. Looking forward to be able to play the full version of this game, whenever it comes out. Goodness knows I'm thankful for a new STG Touhou fangame that I can read and appreciate the story for off the shelves for once.
Also Hidaka Suimyak returns as a composer for this game, and I must say, I LOVE his works here. They're different from his works in Taikan IEFH and FNPC, and really fits the characters and stages well.
