Hello all, this is /u/james7132.

A bunch of Touhou fans, including me, have been working on a Touhou x Smash Bros project, and we've reached a "playable" preliminary demo.

The demo can be found/downloaded here: https://github.com/HouraiTeahouse/GensoShojokosen/releases/tag/v0.1.0-pre-alpha.

This is more or less a showcase/proof of concept. All we have right now is a almost entirely modeled Marisa character, navigating through a WIP of the Forest of Magic stage. There aren't many character animations right now, and while we do have a up-tilt, down-tilt, and neutral jab animated, they don't deal damage or knockback just yet. However, the standard "stock match" is implemented. Players do die. as they are knocked into oblivion, and will respawn accordingly until all lives are exhausted.

We did also get alternate color schemes working. Though since we don't have a functional menu just yet (it's in the works), Marisa's colors are randomized on start.

There are probably going to be lots of bugs. Please help point them out, either here in the comments or log them as issues on the Github repo.

If you want more frequent updates on the project, please visit the MotK thread. It's under the RaNGE board.

EDIT: Small Poll

Does /r/Touhou want us to post a snapshot of our progress every month or so? or would you rather wait for us to finish stuff completely then show it?
