Can I Beat Touhou Without The Bottom Of The Screen?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
- In Touhou games, you spend most of your time in the bottom half of the screen since it's where the dense bullet hell spreads out and leaves openings. But what if I prohibited myself from moving to the bottom of the screen? Would I be able to beat a Touhou game this way?

Besides the low in-game resolution, the recording also occasionally glitches a bit because these games don't behave nicely with Windows 10, not much I can do sadly.
Its ok shyguymask
shut up dennis
I know it sound kinda dumb and that you won’t see this reply but you should try playing stardew valley you would be a legend at this game
yurr finally a video with your favorite character
Microshaft Winblows 10: Adware Edition (Winblows 11 Upgrade Nag update)
This really puts the 'hell' in 'bullet hell'
From a normal hell to lunatic hell
The frogge overlord is here
Hey PerlDrop! I love your videos!
first time hearing the touhou soundtracks in years and its still as great and nostalgic
2:29 Those bullets scare me a lot despite the tiny hitbox, and yes, we all probably have died to them if anyone has played touhou 11 (Yuugi's ''Storm on mt ooe'' spell card)
To clarify, I meant the smaller bullets Kyouko shoots in an arc mostly upward.
@Shyguymask Yeah, the way you put it made it seem like you don't get hit by that bullet type specifically
Unfortunately, there are plenty of difficult patterns that use that bullet
Also what did you expect having to stay up close to the top half of the screen? Of course stuff like that will be way more of a threat
5:29 Wow, nice in-character reaction! It's like you're actually acting as Youmu herself!
Thank you for spreading knowledge of touhou, your posts are a big part of why i gave it a try and i became a fan
Wow! I didn't expect a Touhou challenge from you! Its a happy surprise for me to see this
Congrats!
If you didn't know, Kyouko has two safe spots on Normal mode (with Reimu but should works with the others). On her Echo Sign "Mountain Echo" spell, stand in front of her, your feets on her Life Ring. Most of the time, she can't touch you.
On her Echo Sign "Power Resonance", sit slightly above her right shoulder and you're safe.
It's not that much but it save runs and is an easy refill for Transe.
Hopefully, Miko is not immune to bombs on her last spell as it used to be on old Touhou.
This man doesn't have any limits doesn't he.... Keep up the good work.
of course he has limits, he was limited to the top screen duh
@@cloud8521 you know what good point.
Youmu's chargeshot suddenly makes me think of the subweapons from Bullet Heaven [I forgot if this was a thing in BH1 as well as BH2]...
Lance is my favorite shottype in both BH games because of his high damage up-close.
Mine is NoLeg's shooting star ability from BH2 where you could stack stars in front of the boss to quickly erase its Health Bar. These stars are also quite uselful to deal with spread out swarm of enemies
@@adoorwithstaronit8573 Yesss I always used NoLegs with the stars, it's so good
@@adoorwithstaronit8573 | I _might_ have seen a similar weapon in someone else's MoF Reimu gameplay, where you could park the Yin-Yang Orb somewhere.
i dont like people coming up with challenges but man your videos are entertaining
true bro
Some youtube challenges are boring to watch but shyguymask never makes me bored
There's a lot of great Challenge videos & channels if you dig around!
@@Shyguymask also true
Its about to get real wild
Boy oh boy, I sure do love watching challenge videos for games I have never and will never play!
I've been surprised to see Shyguymask doing a challenge video of a Touhou game. That series was my childhood.
How exactly was touhou your childhood anyway?
Well you actually played the game, which is an up from most other touhou fans
Glad to see Shyguymask's touhou video after seeing so many of his commentaries under some touhou-related videos
My god it's a touhou challenge for real this time
very intersting, i truly did not expect it to be possible
Now im curious to know how many other touhous can be beaten without the bottom half, if any at all really (cause just from memory i'd say MoF would be impossible solely thanks to kanako's last spell)
Well even if other official games are impossible there’s always fan games. No I will not shut up until Danmakufu gets the recognition it deserves.
If you like touhou I recommend a youtuber called "yatsuzume" he beat all touhou games to date on lunatic without bombs nor deaths.
Sometimes he goes to the top of the screen cuz it's easier to dodge certain patterns, that's the minority tho
MoF is possible (and easy) thanks to the glitch, otherwise good luck
A good amount definitely is, simply because of the absurd amount of resources those games provide. UFO, MS and -HRtP- might not be.
@@josearias719 all Windows games. I don't think he has PC98 LNNs.
@@longlivethe9989
9 yatka 🤤
This is one video I’ve been waiting for after seeing his comments around on touhou videos
Oh boy this makes me want to get back to my attempts at beat Mountain of Faith while staying above the PoC line. GGs on the run!
I didn't expect to see Touhou from Shyguymask. Wow.
I couldn't even beat this game normally. How?
Skill
It's a stressful (but fun) game that requires practice!
@@Shyguymaskyes indeed
"I'd love to see other people try this challenge in other Touhou games and on higher difficulties"
Oh boy, Touhou 6 Lunatic top screen only here we go >:)
surely
Idk if it was sarcasm or not (though it's ok either way!), but I have faith in myself I can someday achieve that, wouldn't be the first time I accomplish a weird and difficult Touhou 6 challenge, heh
Try touhou 9 😊
This was probably one of my first introductions to actual touhou gameplay, so a sincere thanks for rocketing me into shmup autism!
okay, you gotta admit, i was pretty close on guessing what the video is gonna be, although i did not expect Wily Beast and Weakest Creature, this also means i will have to give my Strange Shovel to Shyguymask
when you
okay i watched the video my bad, still gonna give the shovel though
9:09 did you choose to skip the life piece fairies here? Could've netted you +4 pieces and so an extra life
edit: nvm forgot miko drops life pieces as well lol
i barely can beat touhou 13 on normal mode, and you do this by being limited with top half of the screen, what a madlad
This was a tun challeng
For a bullet hellhole it does have great music
that's a given for the genre
I mean, this fandom is slowly descending into madness, and I love it.
Common Touhou W
This was a very zun challenge
11:40 is this the first time Shyguymask ever sweared?
Technically, I have swore (for real) in one or a few of my oldest videos from the Diep.io era.
@@Shyguymask ah, ok. Looks like I forgot about that
Sorta guessed it was going to be a Touhou challenge, but thought it was going to be a no bomb run or something like that. Damn this is truly next level.
Iirc someone beat Touhou Bomb only here on YT
this is the only way to make touhou 13 hard.
pog is this the first time you are bringing touhou in your main channel?
Technically no. I've showcased a Touhou fangame a few months ago.
nice to see a touhou challenge here now
that big of a portion of the bottom half is brutal, i was expecting like just 1/4 of the screen to be covered
Better to stay up top than hug the bottom of the screen, man i suck at shmups
Gotta try the same challenge but with lunatic 🤔. Maybe doing the entire series as well (excluding spin offs and 9 + 19).
Literally the only time where Futo is the hardest Stage 5 boss
Shyguymask is playing touhou, dream come true
pretty original challenge!
I totally agree with you saying the game was harder with this challenge being harder than hard, cuz first it's a very restrictive playstyle and I also found out th13 is the easiest touhou on hard I played (th6-18)
also youmu is good if you know how to play her
i never though shyguymask would make a challenge video on the best rythm game in the world: tetris.
i love your content so much sgm
So kamikaze bomibing isn’t exclusive to fan games huh. Anyways if I tried to do this challenge with any of the bullet hells official or fanmade I would most likely lose So props for beating it.
Well that was interesting
How do you keep track of not staying in the bottom half though?
Aside from that one mistake, you really followed that rule religiously (I would've made the mistake of going below multiple times)
During all the time I played including when practicing, I used a screen marker to draw a line right where the white line under the "Graze" text is.
hello shyguymask, I really love ur content. i was wondering if ur ever gonna play item asylum again? If not how come?
I got bored of the game.
@@Shyguymask alright thank you
Ten desires stage 1 is honestly my least favourite part of it, it feels like a chore
Besides Yoshika I love the rest of the game but I never liked Stage 1 and I don't know why
@@Shyguymask Stage 1 of TD is probably the worst stage 1 in Touhou imo, it drags out a lot, with it being possibly being the longest stage 1 and having the longest stage 1 boss in the series
@@ing5998 at least It has great music
@@spidermacho123 It has good music that's true, and it does make the experience better thankfully, though I personally prefer other stage 1 themes
My favorite PvZ youtuber does Touhou content as i start playing it? The universe is in harmony ❤ Thanks for the great video!
Bro went from a UA-camr doing challenges to a UA-camr+Touhou fan doing challenges
-Gensou Shoujo Taisen with certain characters banned-
crazy video idea
half-ghost,half-human,half-screen
Nice ig
Listen, Skyguymask. We joke about you being the best gamer with challenges like these. But this is Touhou. I repeat, _Touhou._ And you survived an extra challenge. In *_Touhou._* It's official. You are now the best.
No LNN tho
Shyguymask when I said : Lemme play CIU (Chicken Invaders Universe)
awesome
11:36 Cirno:"I'm so proud of fairykind! 😭"
Btw, this gave me the really cursed idea of a "Touhou Advance".(Basically, if Touhou was on the GBA, with slightly more screencrunch than this.)
First official touhou vid, no turning back now
Cool
YOU
@@Shyguymaskwho?
@@D-bicer6758 he says cool under a lot of videos
@@lemxnn0ok thanks for the tip
It's hard to read the subtitles when the focus of your view is literally the top of the screen lmao
now imagine doing that for EE lol
If i were to play a touhou game, what should i pick?
Touhou 7 imo. The game is very kind, and in my opinion the easiest game in the series in normal mode (i'm not saying it won't kick your ass though, it's your first time.) The ost is one of the best and the bosses are memorable and fun.
PCB (The 7th game)
I’d love to see the inverse of this challenge!
It would be too easy and unimpactful.
The "hardest" spellcard for this would probably be Icicle Fall. With the blind spot banned, you can't rev up the memes. Then again, assuming Normal, you weren't getting access to the meme blind spot anyway...
A better challenge would probably be no vertical movement at all
@@youdonotcare I agree!
Wow, new interesting challenge for Touhou!
The youmu guy upload
VIDEO 👍
I SAW YOU TODAY AT THE AI GENERATED SPONGE LIVESTREAM LOLLL
An EBF5 summon tierlist would be interesting (no bosses or uncapturable enemies)
Putrid worm would be s tier
6:16 i hate when i run into the enemies hitbox and die too
Youmu
0:29
I haven't played this game, but just off of a hunch I gonna say, you don't _have_ to be *_"bad"_* to miss that, do you?
You are a masochist trying to complete this as Youmu.
She's actually the most fit for this challenge!
huh, weirdly coincidental in the middle of me re-entering the touhou fandom.
completely unhinged 10/10
babe, wake up, new shyguymask video
Hey SGM, I know weird question and u probably forgot but I actually started watching you ever since your bonk io videos, and have been watching your videos ever since, and I want to know if you want to return to bonk io for a video or two, it would be nice for the nostalgia to come back in and your reaction to all of the new stuff over there.
A few years ago I made a Bonk 2 montage, but I don't plan on making more Bonk.io videos, sorry.
Do touhou 8, the game is known to be pretty easy, but some cards can be brutal.
Also touhou 16's extra stage main gimmick is staying at the top of the playable field.
ofc this is the youmu games smh (jk ily sgm)
How does he do it????
Suffering and practice
@@Shyguymask WTF
shyguymask doing the a touhou video aa
no clue what the game actually is, I have never heard of "Touhou" but I'm sure this will be an enjoyable watch
touhou is a bullet hell game (also ignore that bot reply)
Despite me knowing a lot about Touhou, I've NEVER played the og games (i feel guilty)
TOUHOU????
the power of x button
thank you
reimu homing shot
youmu damage
Touhou: *Intimate difficulty*
I look forward to the day you can 1cc Lunatic
I could see myself pulling it off "skillfully" in WBaWC with Youmu Otter lol
playing touhou normally is already hard enough as is
Do you know anything about Detara? Left and didnt leave a clue.. I hope he is alright
TOUHOU CHALLENGES TOUHOU CHALLENGES
impressive
awesome sauce youmu is hot
HOLY SHIT SHYGUYMASK PLAYS 2HU?
Can you beat Touhou 6 on Windows 10 on full screen at 70000+ fps?
Can I beat Touhou was challenge enough man cmon
do mario and luigi dream team bros
Finally finished it, eh?
Okay, ive thought touhou is an ecchi fanservice series
that's what happens when fan content reaches mainstream more easily than official content
lmao
I wish you gave an explanation for what all these mechanics are, as someone with no familiarity with the game I found this pretty hard to follow compared to many of your other videos
The Trance (The game's main gimmick) is outright confusing by itself when playing for the first time. I kept wondering how I could clarify on a few game mechanics inside the video, but unfortunately I couldn't figure out a way to do it without feeling like it'd harm the pace of the video.
I will try to give an explanation while keeping It as brief as possible.
When you shoot and kill enemies, Divine spirits come out, Blue ones increase score, Grey ones increase your trance gauge, Green ones give you a bomb piece, and pink ones give you a life piece.
Trance mode activates automatically when you lose a life, but If you have a Full trance gauge, you can activate It manually without losing a life.
Trance mode itself makes your character invincible and your shot gets stronger for a short time.
When you have trance mode activated, Green and pink spirits are worth Double the life/bomb pieces. Basically, this means you get more lifes and bombs.
I think that's it.
@@spidermacho123 I think blue ones still increase the trance gauge to a lesser extent but yeah.
