Because tokens are a symptom of complexity and state tracking, we’d kept tokens in reserve for most of the game’s history. Yamame’s spreading Disease was a very strong case for them though, and here we are. Yamame has control over the diseases, with her spell card allowing her to destroy or create them as she pleases. If anyone complains that it’s unrealistic that you can’...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F5vsC4X8KgWhat is “card advantage?” Is it something you can eat?Card advantage is a concept that was developed in the early days of competitive Magic the Gathering as a way to abstract the exchanges of resources that happen throughout the game. In most card games, one of the most limited resources available to a player are cards in hand. In general, you consume cards from your hand to perform actions or to gain some sort of on-board advantage, such as items i...
Mountain of Faith
Kanako probably cast a dimension shift spell to bring the Moriya Shrine to Gensokyo, but I like to imagine it just fell from the sky.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F5vsC4X8KgAki Minorikobrings abundance to your Danmaku!! table. This harvest goddess is the only character who just gets an additional draw with her Ability. With her abundance of cards, she can also gift cards to her allies. Her Spell Card is even a Party!Whereas Minoriko brings abundance, Kagiyama Hinaremoves misfortune from your ...

Question: Card Advantage
Do you know what Card Advantage is in card games? Wondering if I should explain it in an upcoming post.
Phantasmagoria of Flower View
PoFV Tewi's Theme: Lord Usa's Elemental FlagShameimaru Ayawas the first card we ever wrote errata for. For those of you who have only played Danmaku!!’s base game, her Ability got limited to once per turn afterwards. That hasn’t changed in Big Box.Kazami Yuukafertilizes the flowers of Gensokyo with the corpses of her enemies. This flower master embodies the true essence of Danmaku!! with her Spell Card that resembles a blooming, deadly flower.Onozuka Komachiis the last remaining card...

Her Ability allows her to command all the fireflies to darken, and in that darkness her bullets invisibly move closer. Her Spell Card literally bugs players and makes them drop their cards. The bugs eat the cards and grow in power.I don’t think we’ve posted Mystia Lorelei’s art before now. She comes with a song of blindness and built in reflect shot ability. Goi...

【東方】チルノのパーフェクトさんすう教室 ⑨周年バージョン【IOSYS】Cirno’s Perfect Math ClassSince her introduction at the very beginning of Danmaku!!, Cirno has been something of a joke character. She was really bad at hitting characters directly in front of her. In Danmaku!! 1.0 we counterbalanced this by giving her a super powerful Spell Card. Perfect Freeze made another player lose their turn with the only defense being Bomb.Over the years this proved to be a m...

Immaterial and Missing Power
IaMP Suika's Theme: Oni's Island in the Fairyland ~ Missing Power (Re-Extended)This month brings us the characters from Immaterial and Missing Power, which is Suika by her onisome. Suika gets a buff in Big Box, as we overestimated the power level of getting a single free, invisible Power card. Suika instead vacuums up Powerups from other players, making her an excellent Final or Extra Boss. Her Spell Card, Gathering and Dissipating, gets a wording update and is surprisingly spelled that ...
Perfect Cherry Blossom
Today we're releasing the Big Box versions of the characters from Touhou 7 Perfect Cherry Blossom.Letty Whiterockmanipulates chill. Which 22 years ago didn't sound like it would involve lofi beats to relax or study to. In Danmaku!!, Letty can convert Winter cards into copies of another Action card in her hand. Pretty cool. Her Spell Card, "Cold Snap", says that no one gets to activate a Spell Card this turn. I looked up Mr. Freeze's ice puns for this post, but they're not...

As the first characters in the Windows series of Touhougames, these characters kicked off Touhouas we know it today.Rumiawields the power of darkness and will always have the honor of being the very first Spell Card user.

Crazy Butterfly: Eternity Larva
I hope you’re as excited as I am because Eternity Larva is our latest incident character!As part of our Big Box rules update, we were making cards work independently of which decks you were playing with. Eternity Larva’s old card worked with the mob deck, allowing her to set them up and knock them down. With the new rules this wouldn’t work. However, we knew we could count on the incident deck to be in play! This fairy that approaches god now buffs the most powerful force in Danmaku!!, the...

Small-fry: Ushizaki Urumi
"Please, won't you hold my baby for a moment?"Some of you probably saw this coming. Some of you have asked for it. Urumi’s previous ability was very binary. Once she gave you the Stone Baby you were basically done for. While that works for the ushi-oni myth, it doesn’t make for a very fun game.We mulled over several replacements, but ended up rejecting the concept of a global effect entirely. Her ability should function when you are interacting with her. We also rejected a “sta...

Big Box Big Update - Market Deck
Wolf of Black Market is the final expansion added to Danmaku!! and is exclusive to Big Box. With it comes the market deck and spirits cards. These add a market row to the game, allowing players to purchase the cards they need instead of leaving their draws in the hands of randomness. Some of the cards players can exchange for lean into the exchange process itself, giving them more purchasing power over the long term – assuming they live long enough to capitalize on them.The Market DeckThe mark...
Spider-Cow wants to give you a baby
Just wanted to share a preview of Urumi's art. I'm going to try to get the Market deck update/reintroduction out this weekend. Please wait warmly.
Bonus: Easy Mode Then VS Now
I found this image from the Alpha version of Danmaku!! and I love sharing such things. This is from the first working version of the game, before we had a style developed, and before bombs became abstracted into invocations. It's a bit odd how the effect is almost reversed, we were worried about the extra complexity spell cards added at the time.
Big Box Big Update - Lunatic Deck
The majority of the changes to the lunatic deck are either direct upgrades or new cards. Many of you had problems with endless cycling of cards between the main deck and lunatic deck and we agree, so we've removed Grimoire and Voile from the deck. We've replaced them with cards you would want any time. The new lunatic deck is all hits and no misses. We've cut duds like Focus and replaced it with an artifact level Defense card: Gale Geta. We also added new aggressive Spell Card level ...
Big Box Big Update - Incident Deck
Hello dear Patrons, and Merry Christmas!! Thank you for all of your support this year.On this festive day, we bring gifts of incidents!!Incident DeckThe incident deck, blood red and dangerous, was the first “expansion” to Danmaku!!. We originally designed it to be optional like later expansions, but quickly discovered that players loved incidents and would not play without them. Popular as they are, we are increasing the number of incidents from 24 to 40. That’s 16 base incidents, 4 from L...
Big Box Big Update - Main Deck
Hello dear Patrons, thank you again and again for your generous support. Today we have for you a working copy of the main deck and in the following days I’ll have updates to several other playable decks. Because I go into depth on these posts, I’ll be breaking up the posts and releasing them over the holiday.We wanted to smooth out some rough gameplay in Danmaku!! 1.0 and all of these decks have been updated with new cards and more variety of card types, as well as have had some unpopular ca...
