If you want proper feedback you might want to post in some Touhou\/danmaku community. Myself, I could only capture 'Under the Muffin Tree' and had to use continues to clear the stage.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Excellent (if highly derivative) danmaku game. Outside of the unfinished state of this game, I can't really tell the difference between this and a Touhou game - it has everything a danmaku game needs and it's all done right (as far as I can tell - I'm no danmaku expert). The difficulty is absolutely brutal, though (significantly harder than Touhou in Lunatic Mode, assuming this represents the early game). I don't think I've used the Pizza Sauce Mode even once, considering I was way too busy not dying repeatedly to check if I can use it yet.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The bullets look nice, but the placeholder enemies and solid gray background make the game look pretty awful. The lack of audio takes away a lot from the experience, and even harms the gameplay on some occasions - not hearing the bullets being generated makes the patterns harder to predict, and the lack of sound when you die makes it far, far harder to bomb in time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I didn't really see any significant link to the theme."},{"author_name":"Aumni","author_uid":"42308","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 5:31am","epoch":1429680360,"text":"I really enjoyed the gameplay, especially the difficulty of it.

There's no audio and some temporary sprites because of time constraints.\r\n\r\nThe game takes some inspiration from the Touhou Project and Pokemon series. It is about the protagonist Jolly, who goes to a restaurant and then bullets happen. He uses bubbles to attack, and also enlists the help of basic kitchen utensils against many food-using enemies.\r\n\r\nControls (non-menu controls customizable):\r\n    Arrow Keys - Move (navigate menu)\r\n    Z - Shoot (confirm on menu)\r\n    X - Use Bomb [while having at least one] (cancel on menu)\r\n    Shift - Focus [move slower, show hitbox, attack type changes]\r\n    C - Pizza Sauce Mode [While plate meter is filled at least once]\r\n    Escape - Pause\r\n\r\nFor information about the mechanics, detailed instructions are available here: http:\/\/pastebin.com\/uMfQM3Ss\r\nHopefully it shouldn't be too hard to figure out the game without them, though.","title":"Barrage Restaurant ~ Bountiful Food"}
