This game is the first of a series heavily inspired from Touhou Project and Len'en Project gameplay-wise. This is a much darker and lore-intensive universe than those two games. This universe is focused about the story and lore.

The two protagonists are Hanase Koma, a gentle and kind girl with an hatred against some types of youkais. And Miko Shiko, an understanding but sadistic girl with a heavy focus on protecting the integrity of the world of Myara (but doesn't care about the mission she's given).

During this adventure, the protagonist you play as will face very different foes who will sometime try to stop your progression or just play a bit with you.

The Story

In a part of Japan that was sealed away in another world around 1925 in which the technology stagnated since then, the Myara Protection Agency (sometimes called Hidenobu) located in Kumamoto city, who's job is to protect this world from any danger, suspects that something is up at the top of the Lunar Mansion Mountain. A weird magic scent is being perceived from the very top of the mountain. You are sent by Hidenobu to investigate about this mystery and maybe find a way to resolve it.

During this journey, you'll discover something terrifying and put you in the center of a vast and strange story.

A word

Yes, I know, there is no replays in this game. In the beginning I wanted to do them but after a long thought about it I decided not to due to a lot of reasons. Sorry for that! Maybe in a future update!
Anothing thing: If you wonder why the stages get a lot more short the farther you get into the game, story-wise it's because up into the mountain there's not really anyone nor any fairies/yokais. Development-wise...I used nearly all my ideas for stages after the 3rd one heh.
If you have any problems with the mosaic effect on the game, just disable it, it's supposed to work for some resolutions but if the one you have set is blurry, you can disable it. (there is nothing affecting the gameplay with this option don't worry.)

Warning

Some artworks contains light gore representations (stage 4 boss), proceed with that in mind. This game is NOT suited for children.

Smartscreen warning

This game could trigger a windows smartscreen popup or your anti-virus but do know that it's a false positive, I couldn't sign the executable, sorry about that!
