À propos de ce jeu

Juuden Youshuugi ~ Crimson Paraselene (獣伝妖秋儀　～ Crimson Paraselene) is a bullet hell shooting game inspired by Touhou Project, featuring characters from various artists. The game takes place in Lunamara, a mystical land where the moon is closest to the Earth, inhabited by beasts, magic users, and youkai.

It is the first game in the Beast Tales (獣伝) series and is being developed in the Unity game engine by Supermoon Studio.

Story

The moon's revolution around Earth has been halted, creating a week-long full moon directly over Lunamara. This unnatural event caused the moon's influence on nature in Lunamara to intensify, resulting in a forest of bamboo springing up overnight, and non-stop high tides. Lunamara will be in serious danger unless someone intervenes...

A fox and a lion went out to investigate the source of this incident, following the only clue they had: pockets of sunlight and moonlight that rained from the sky.

Basic Gameplay

• Use the arrow keys to move the playable character and avoid enemy bullets. You can move the character in 8 directions.
  
• You will lose a life if your character gets hit by an enemy bullet.
  
• Hold the shot key (Z) key to shoot.
  
• Press the bomb key (X) key to use a bomb. Use these to clear bullets.
  
• Hold the slow key (shift) to focus your character's shots and make them move slowly. Use this for more precise movement to avoid bullets.
  
• Collect blue rupees dropped by enemies to earn points. The higher your character is on the screen when you collect them, the more points you earn!
  
• Collect red rupees dropped by enemies to increase your character's shot power and deal more damage to enemies! Be careful, your character will lose power if they lose a life!
  
• Bewitched light items, or "youkou" (妖光) items will appear when you shoot down enemies or graze bullets, appearing as either moons or stars.

Characters

Ashter Balker
(HowSplendid's character)



“Lunamara is completely covered in glittering stars and moons. They must be made of some kind of magic, because they’re changing the environment around them. Someone’s gotta head out and find out where they’re coming from! This’ll be a great opportunity to explore more of Lunamara. There’s still so much of it that I haven’t seen, and maybe I’ll find some treasure along the way!”

Caroline Soulfire
(HowSplendid's character)



“We’ve had a full moon in Lunamara for over a week now. Rain thinks it’s the work of some youkai who are up to no good, and these stars and moons in the air might have something to do with it. I don’t see what the big deal is, personally, but she’s offering me a tome that will teach me thunder magic if I go investigate. How could I say no to that?!”
