The trial version of ` ` Toho Demon Beast-Wily Beast and Weakest Creature. '', The latest work of the barrage shooting game (STG) series ``

And on May 20, 2019 (Monday), the free version of the download version also started on the web, so the editorial staff who do not usually do barrage STG challenged.

The following movie is where I actually played a trial version of 'Dong Bang Devil-Wily Beast and Weakest Creature.'

I played the trial version of `` Toho Demon Beast-Wily Beast and Weakest Creature. '' With difficulty Shiba Inu class (normal)-YouTube


The trial version of “Dong Bang Beast and Weakest Creature.” Is distributed free of charge on Steam, and can also be downloaded in ZIP format from the link on the blog of Mr. ZUN, the head of the Shanghai Alice Mausoleum . The capacity of the ZIP file is about 183MB.



When you unzip the downloaded 'th17tr.zip' using the standard Windows expansion function or software such as Explzh, the folder 'th17tr' appears. Click 'mnt' folder in it.



Open the “cdrom” folder in the “mnt” folder.



Then click on the “th17tr” folder.



Click th17.exe.



Since the resolution selection screen appears before the game starts, click “Start Game”.



When you start the game, it looks like this. In addition to the keyboard, operation input supports gamepads. Select “GAME START” to play the game.



First select the difficulty level. There are four levels of difficulty, from the simplest to 'Lamb (Easy)', 'Shiba Inu (Normal)', 'Sabertooth Tiger (Hard)' and 'Dinosaur (Lunatic)'. Since I am not very familiar with the barrage STG, I chose Shiba Inu.



Choose the character (your machine) that the player controls from 3 people. Hakurei is a shrine maiden (Miko)

Reimu Hakurei and ......



Marisa Kirisame , the “very ordinary wizard”



I am a resident swordsman and a swordsmith

Youmu .



Select the animal spirit you want to depend on from: 'Wolf Spirit', 'Otter Spirit', and 'Swallow Spirit'. Depending on your choice of animal spirits, your attack style will change, so choose according to your preference.



The red frame in the image below is your machine. A small white spot that overlaps with your aircraft is a hit decision. Move with the direction key and press Z to attack. Also activate the spell card (

bomb ) with the X key. When you activate the spell card, the enemy bullets disappear and you become invincible for a certain period of time while launching a powerful range attack. However, spell cards are limited in the number of times they can be activated, so it's the last hand.



When the Shift key is pressed, it becomes “slow”, the movement of the aircraft slows down, and the attack also changes to a barrage of fire forward. Useful for carefully passing through enemy bullets or quickly defeating durable enemies.



If you defeat the enemy, you can get a red 'Spirit Up Item' and a blue 'Score Up Item'. The more enlightened items you get, the more shots you get. The score increases as you score higher items.



Spirit-up items and score-up items will flow through the screen and disappear, but you can get them automatically when you move to the top of the screen.



Also, “animal spirits” and “item torpedoes” that are slightly larger than the spirit-up items and scoring items may appear. The following image shows the appearance of a wolf spirit item.



Acquired animal spirits and item torpedoes are displayed in the lower left. If you get 5 items, you will be in “Roaring Mode”. There is a time limit in the lowering mode, and a gauge is displayed below your aircraft.



Even if you hit the enemy ’s bullets in the lowering mode…



Enemy bullets disappear extensively without losing your aircraft. However, if you use a spell card or hit your own aircraft, the lowering mode will be canceled regardless of the remaining time.



Also, if you collect 3 or more of the same type of animal spirits, 'Wolf Spirit', 'Otter Spirit', and 'Swallow Spirit', you will enter 'Runaway Lowering Mode'. For example, the wolves' runaway roaring mode makes the shot incredibly powerful and has a wider range. Anyway, in the style specialized for offense, you can wipe out the enemies coming in.



Otter Spirit Runaway Lowering Mode is a mode that pursues defense. When the otter spirit rounds around your aircraft, it not only damages the enemy, but also counteracts the enemy ’s bullets, making it possible to deal with heavy barrages.



Steller's Runaway Roaring mode makes the diffuse shot insanely powerful as shown in the image below.



The automatic tracking diffusion shot can be wiped out even if a large number of enemies come out. If you only need to pay attention to enemy bullets, it will be very appreciated for beginners who are unable to locate and hit not only enemy bullets but also the enemy itself.



Unlike spirit-up items and scoring items, animal spirits keep floating on the screen for a while, and will change to different animal spirits in a certain time if you are away. For example, if you take a distance without taking the wolf spirit that appeared ...



The wolf spirit changed to an otter spirit. Therefore, even if it appears, the strategy is not to take it immediately but to leave it until it changes to the item you want.



Marisa attacks forward with magic.



When Marisa's Runaway Roaring Mode is activated in Marisa, a thick laser is emitted in 5 directions.



Youmu, who excels in swordsmanship, had a bullet that slashed like a crescent moon.



When it slows down, instead of firing a barrage like Reimu or Marisa, it ceases to fire and puts it into a “for” position.



If you hold the throw for a certain amount of time and press the shot button after enough, you will push a large slash forward. Although this slashing is very high in attack power, it is difficult to use because it cannot attack while it is standing, and it can be said to be a little tricky character.



Depending on the animal spirit you depend on, not only the performance of the game, but also the character of the character changes, so the conversation between the game changes. For example, Reimu, whose character was brutally addicted by the wolf spirit, makes a rough statement to one side of the boss, Reika, that “I ’m a stone? ......



If you wield a Steller's eagle spirit that is a high-flying character, you will spit out a line of sight from above, saying, 'You are laden with stones in such a river.'



The barrage STG had only the image `` a game that shoots a lot of enemy bullets while desperately avoiding it '', but when you actually play, you remember the enemy's appearance position and attack pattern and timing There is fun in assembling the strategy in yourself. The barrage that seemed unavoidable has a clue that can be captured somewhere, so even beginners not familiar with barrage STG enjoyed it.

Character interaction and music are of course attractive, but the response of the part of how to go through the barrage is rather than just “shoot and shoot”. Since it is a trial version, only three stages are recorded, but the product version will increase the volume, so you can expect enough.

By the way, when I tried to challenge the most difficult dinosaur class, the editorial staff unfamiliar with the barrage STG is still in a state of not even clearing one side. Still, there is the pleasure of the barrage STG such as 'avoid bullets' and the strategic nature of 'advance the game in consideration of the type and timing of taking items', and it is not difficult to just push it out, it is difficult I felt that it was adjusted to the content that I wanted to play again and again.



The appeal of the Touhou Project is not only its game characteristics, but also the music that plays during the game is one of the popular elements. Select “MUSIC ROOM” from the top menu.



The BGM that played in the game is played, and you can read the explanation by ZUN.



In “MANUAL” ……



You can see game stories and more detailed system explanations.



Click on omake.txt included in the “th17ty” folder that contains the game itself.



Character settings were gathered. Please check with your own eyes what kind of setting it is.



The regular version of “Toho Onigata Beast? Wily Beast and Weakest Creature.” Will be delivered on Steam from September 10th, and the price is undecided.
