I'm very mixed on this game, so I think I'll just list off my pros and cons to make it easier. Though, overall, I'd say it's more good than bad, and generally one of the better Touhou fangames. Don't let my grievances discourage you from getting it, you might enjoy some of the stuff I didn't! (Does contain minor spoilers) Aspects I enjoyed: - The combo potential of Tenshi's moveset is probably the best part of the game. Combo's feel cool to land, though not being particularly difficult, but sometimes you do have to fight the enemy placement and weird positioning more than the actual enemies themselves. There's a good bit of variance and routes, so you can get pretty creative, ESPECIALLY for a side scroller. - Pretty much all of the boss fights are highlights of the game. The difficulty did vary a lot, Nue being halfway through the game and being by far the hardest fight in my personal opinion, but even the easier fights are at least fun. - The art and soundtrack are both great. The sprites looks amazing, and I love how they somewhat imitate the art of the early fighting games, in which Tenshi originates from. Though, one note, the character portraits can be kinda sexualized (not too crazy, mostly just some of the characters clothes seeming to be vacuum sealed to them), so if that is a turn off, I'd look out for it. Aspects I disliked: - The game doesn't really tell you squat on what you're supposed to do a lot of the time. It's not the worst, it does kind of nudge you in the right direction sometimes (though said nudges very in effectiveness), but it never really naturally points you in the right direction. It kind of just assumes you read through the notes and understood them perfectly, and by the end of the game it's not to bad, but the start can be rather confusing. - The level design varies HEAVILY. Sometimes it feels great to go through, but other times it will hit you with offscreen enemies, weirdly tight platforming, and terrible enemy placement. I wouldn't really consider the game that hard, but it can be a pain to get through at points. - The systems could really use some work. Primarily referring to the weather system, but the combat system could use some work too. It mostly feels great, but certain things like the sword and dash being tied to the same cooldown, the projectile being the same button as the melee's can be really wonky, and the spirit gauge feels like it doesn't really need to exist. Back to the weather, it's a cool mechanic, but can be really annoying due to it being tied down to enemies. Sometimes it's used in an interesting way, but sometimes it feels very intrusive. It's nice when its only every once in a while and the puzzle is actually cool, but a lot of the time it just feels like "oh great its weather time again".

Amazing. Combat feels great, movement is fine. The level design sometimes feels a bit shit and can be a little aggravating, though it's mostly good; the boss fights, however, are incredible. Handedly worth the money.
