Dang, this is a real neat concept. A bit jank and difficult here and there, but controlling multiple characters is always a challenge to design so definitely a creative puzzle game.

Also couldn't help but think about the smol Youmu and how walfas is the one behind the smol vtuber style so it all comes back to Touhou babyyyy

Very cute, but the controls felt quite floaty for such a tight and punishing game. I would often walk into bullets, because Youmu wouldn't stop in time.

This is an interesting puzzle game! Somehow I manage to make Myon go outside of the border on level 1, perhaps that is a bug.

I streamed the game here around minute 103 if anyone wants to watch:

Cutest Youmu of the jam. I feel those purple ghosts chase her phantom half too fast.

This game is great. I love the blend of action and puzzle, where you can either be smart or quick. It's nice that it's mostly grid based, since the ghost snapping to the grid (and the bullets being grid aligned) gives me confidence in that it'll block the walls of bullets I'm rushing into. It's also great that the ghost's normal movement is not grid based, since that lends itself to better action gameplay. The difficulty is just right, too.

Minor nit-pick is that I think it'd be more intuitive to control if the ghost stayed in place when scrolling the screen and not moving the mouse. It's not like the ghost is synced-up to the mouse cursor anyway, since it gets stuck on objects.

I would play a full game of this.

A really fun puzzle game! I was surprised that the difficulty suddenly became difficult, but I quickly got used to it!

The animations are just too damn cute, I love the visual style of this game. It’s got an fun control scheme that lends itself to the kind of multitasking in this game with Youmu and her ghost half. I’ve seen similar controls before (I even did a jam game with something like it) but the fact its in a puzzle game makes me realize it’s got more potential than just top-down action.

The game’s also real hard, lol. I think you know that from all the times the game told me to git gud.

Really liked the gameplay and puzzles! The puzzles were really fun and I think this walk & block concept is awesome. The difficulty was a bit much for me though haha, was not the best at it.

The puzzle game is crazy in a good way!
But it was a bit difficult to navigate through the menu because the buttons overlap the screen.

Cute Youmu puzzle game! the concept of phantom blocking danmaku is nice.
