Intro
Welcome back to another round of “Derxwna Makes Games”, starring The Badman themself, Derxwna Kapsyla! Today’s project was made for the Relic Castle Winter Game Jam 2. This project is called “Touhou Puppet Play ~ The Festival of Curses”. If you are familiar with my previous projects, The Festival of Curses is a soft sequel to The Mansion of Mystery. The Festival of Curses is a Fangame built off of the Touhoumon Essentials extension for the Essentials engine. Much like the other Touhou Puppet Play project I released, this will be a linear game with 6-ish stages, and one Extra Stage. Don’t worry, there’s no penalty for not clearing the game perfectly!
Features
- A game without features is… well, it’s pong? No, I guess even Pong has features… I digress! The Festival of Curses has its own batch of features which make it really nifty, if I do say so myself!
- A Touhoumon game with Puppets up to Double Dealing Character and Urban Legend in Limbo!
- A visual style from the creators of Touhoumon themselves, FocasLens, utilizing their Gensou Ningyou Enbu Asset Collection Pack!
- Not to mention music from the equally tallented a-TTTempo (from the GNE Ost), and Paradarx (A fairly popular Pokemon-soundfont arranger of Touhou tracks)!
- A fair amount of utilization of Golisopod User’s Mid-Battle Dialogue/Battle Scripting resource to make some quirky, if hopefully enjoyable, battles!
- Given that this is a fairly short game, made for a Game Jam, there isn’t a whole lot of super unique features that would be in one of my main projects. Still! I’d like to believe these will help it be a memorable experience!
