1st clear on MoF and my 5th official Touhou shmup clear!
This one was pretty complex to collect items often, becuase it can sometimes imply in sacrificing shot power for item magneting and power bombs!

Mountain of Faith is a shmup by ZUN and Team Shanghai Alice in 2007, which is the 7th entry of Touhou in the windows era and the 10th main game overall in the Touhou franchise.
It´s one of the few official Touhou shmups to feature a Type-C weapon variant for a character.
Compared to the previous entries, this one replaces the spell bombs system with the Power Bombing mechanic, in which sacrificing some shot power deploys a power bomb (later reused in Subterranean Animism).
Also, MoF does not have a graze count, tho you can still perform grazing.
The scoring system is based on the Faith meter, which has a refillable gauge and a numeric value (minimum 50,000). As long as the gauge is not empty, the player's Faith value doesn't decrease, but the gauge slowly depletes unless the player is defeating enemies or collecting point items. Point items also partially refill the gauge, and Faith items increase the Faith value. The Faith value directly affects the point value of point items and spell card bonuses.
