Seihou 2 稀翁玉 ~ Kioh Gyoku - Perfect Clear (NMNB) (Yuuka)

Описание: A clear of the game without dying or bombing.

Kioh Gyoku came out in 2001 and was the 2nd game in the Seihou series.
Otherwise knows as the sister series to Touhou, since both series originated from the original Amusement Makers doujin group that ZUN was also a part of.
All the music in this game is also done by ZUN, though apart from the last boss you don't get to hear any of them because everything dies so fast.
He also drew the art for Yuuka, who very much exists in this game.

Kioh Gyoku is Seihou's take on a versus Twinkle Star Sprites-like, like the Phantasmagoria's are to Touhou.
It's a strange game for sure, it feels more like a tech demo than an actual full game.
Lots of basic features seem missing (like difficulty selections, or like... an ending) and it has that vibe of something that doesn't feel quite finished. It's also insanely short, clocking in under less time to beat the game than it takes to even put ads in a Youtube video.
Though part of the short length is that the AI just dies if you so much as look at it funny. The AI for anything but the last boss just seems incapable of handling anything you throw at it.
They also make you fight only 3 of the 6 main characters, which I don't understand, they could have added 3 more stages to the game and it would have been fine.

The first three stage opponents are randomized from the main six, in stage 4 and 5 you always fight Morgan and Muse.
Out of the main six Erich is definitely by far the worst opponent. His special fires extremely fast aimed lasers that are really hard to react to and can kill you in like two hits.
Morgan is extremely obnoxious because her special is spawning huge bullets right on top of your hitbox. Muse mostly just takes long but is otherwise not that bad.

This game is all about grazing. Grazing charges your meters and it also sends garbage to the opponent. You can chain grazes together for a big attack.

Yuuka is quite good because her level 1 charge attack can kill all enemies on screen at once and send all their revenge bullets to one spot to graze.
