This was a delightfully civilized romp!! The train was brilliant to explore and the dialogue was at once gripping and hilarious, fan-friendly yet accessible. You could probably inspire a lot of people to play Touhou based solely upon the idiosyncratic juxtaposition of these extremely bizarre characters. I was too late to vote for this, but I would have given it five stars for Concept simply for how it could not have happened that way outside of the Touhou Universe. As for its relevance to pride and identity, I must say that I didn't buy it as much. Sprinkling homoerotic overtones does not really get at the heart of the issue of self-determination, but then again it was only a game, after all. I hope that Reimu did not hurt Marisa's pride too much. XDXDXD. R>G.

That was a lovely time. It had charming character interactions and organic progression to make that shine. The models and environment look lovely, making it a shame the walk cycle couldn't make it in. I especially loved the small stylistic details like the walls collapsing when you walk into a car and the silhouette when your character is behind something. It was also hilarious to see a murder mystery where everyone was fighting to claim to be the one who killed poor Reimu. One nitpick is despite the music fitting really well it looped quite awkwardly with a lot of silence and a weird cutoff when resuming, kind of hurting the tone every now and again. Anyway, great job through and through!

Great game, so funny too! And surprisingly we had no problem at all with the online coop, so that was such an amazing work there :D The music is nice, the visuals are awesome too :o

Well that was entertaining. I think the number one strength here is the visuals. Followed by writing. The music is top-notch as well. That's a heck of a story to think up, and I'm a sucker for over-the-top murder mysteries Phoenix Wright or Danganronpa style. I'd actually wanna see more of these.

Alas, the 'no walk animation' bug got me and Renko scooted everywhere. Controls and graphics are damn impressive for a three-day job (and it supports networked multiplayer?!). Maribel never blocked me in a corridor but I can see how that could end up happening. Nine character models, plus 2D portraits, plus the train and compartments, plus all the CGs...

...Bravo for time management, I have to say.

Only complaint on the visuals was Remilia's head not also being on fire.

Writing stole the show, of course. A murder mystery where half the cast admit to being responsible... every character feels distinct, from Niwatari to frickin' Sakuya just standing there. (Does Maribel get an extra set of dialogue from interacting with everyone? I only played SP)

Use of Theme is solid for 'Identity' given... well, the murder mystery and its resolution, and the LGBT side is represented for the obvious reasons.

Loved every aspect except Mary needs to get the hell away from my face in doorways
