they said it couldn't be done
A saga 8-months in the making... we've finally cleared the Extra Stage for Touhou 8 - Imperishable Night!!! In the Touhou series, an Extra Stage is an extra difficult, extra long stage & boss fight you unlock only by clearing the main 6 stages of the game with no continues. A 1CC, a one-credit-clear, finishing the arcade mode with only one quarter - so to speak. And now we've done that with three Touhou games! Certainly, it can only get easier from here... right... ? ? ?
(if you'd like to jump straight to the winning run, it begins at 0:51:55!)
A bit of a cut-throat edit, but I wanted to capture the arc of learning such a tough stage while still having it at a watchable length. In the process of learning this stage, I started playing and 1CCing these games on Hard Mode, instead of Normal Mode! We've grown so much as Touhou Gamers... Up next, we're taking on Touhou 10 - Mountain of Faith!
touhou thursday forever. first try every time.
