鏈縁无現里 ～ Evanescent Existence - Unreal Mode 1cc (Tsubakura)
373From the same guy that makes those April Fools PC-98 Touhou remake videos.
Evanescent Existence is the first game in JynX's Len'en Series, with two games free to download and the third being released this Comiket.
Unreal is the highest difficulty in the game and it's quite a thing.
Tsubakura, the shottype I'm using, is unlocked by beating the Extra stage with the normal shottype Yabusame. Whereas Yabusame's specialty is screen coverage and homing with a powerful shotgun, Tsubakura's specialty is powerful forward focus attacks.
The stage 3 boss therefore changes depending on what character you're playing as, as you'll always fight the other main character.
Stage 1 is quite difficult with Tsubakura as she's too weak at low power to effectively kill everything. Her level 3 power is also awkward in that it's actually weaker than her high level 2 power. This is of course offsetted once you reach level 4 and 5.
Yes, the controls are reversed on the final spellcard of the stage 3 boss.
It doesn't translate well in video but the first spellcard of the final boss pushes you down and the second pulls you in. There is a same effect going on on her bomb spellcard.
You actually get a screen clear for collecting a 1-up, which you can use to cancel the first two waves of her first attack. I kind of messed it up.
In general for stages you want to quickly speedkill everything as you'll quickly get destroyed if you don't.
1cc'ing Unreal Mode unlocks Absurdly Extra Mode.
I haven't had this much trouble unlocking an extra stage in 5 years, it's quite nostalgic.
More games should do this.
