I found a TAS video of one of touhou games, so I decided to create the topic to post it. Touhou 06 EoSD Lunatic ReimuB 1,363,755,110 : Youtube Replay (link is 東方紅魔郷Lunaticスコア(夢符)) by ISM Touhou 06 EoSD Extra ReimuA 846,061,440 : Youtube Replay by kopiapoa Touhou 07 PCB Lunatic MarisaA 7,622,846,880 : Replay Touhou 12 UFO Lunatic MarisaA 5,157,654,050 : Replay by Ansa121 There is a bug in EoSD, the score can't go higher than 1 billion. This won't prevent you to watch the replay, but you can get rid of the score cap with these cheatcodes (They work with CheatEngine) : 0041B8B0-FFFFFF7F 0041B8BC-FFFFFF7F I'll edit this post as I find more videos.

Thanks for the post. Danmaku are pretty fun to watch TASed.

A pretty high percentage of the videos here (maybe 25% of the ones on the first few pages) are TASes of danmaku shooters. (Not many are as long as the one you just posted, though.)

Bullet hell shooter TAS videos are under a huge imperative to show off since a real time play perfect run is usually an amazing sight on its own. The first one doesn't disappoint, although a few in that next link aren't as ambitious. Then again, some stages are much better than others for showing off, especially the extra stages.

I remember seeing TAS of UFO which scores over 4 billion points with MarisaA on Lunatic. Here it is. (Replay file)

Ah, yes, that is the one where the score overflows (at 22:36) :-). Touhou is clearly TASable, but how is it done? Do people use modified versions of the game, or manual editing of input files? Anyway, it would be nice to see some Touhou tases here too. Why not simply accept them in the form of Touhou input files?

Do you know if the author intends to submit them here? While it looked to my untrained eye like there were some missed gracing opportunities towards the end, the ufo run was very entertaining, and I, at least, would vote for it to be published here. Touhou has huge TAS potential if done correctly, so it is a bit sad that all the activity is happening outside TASvideos.

Grazing is a bit useless during the final boss because it increases the value of point items, but you don't get many of them during the boss, so it's not worth it. Lots of Touhou players (and tasers) are japanese, so I doubt they intend to submit their runs here, sadly.

The TAS score record for UFO has been improved further ~3 months ago (forgot to post about it). Here it is. (replay file) And yes, the score is real.

Thanks! I also added a EoSD Lunatic and PCB Lunatic, and updated EoSD Extra. =)
