Progress report / release date announcement


I've been really silent about the game, but that's just because I'm spending as much time as possible finishing it!

The status for Hotline Sanzu right now is:

  • All non-boss stages are finished!
  • Most of the soundtrack is finished!
  • ...and basically none of the planned story content (cutscenes, portrait assets, etc) exists.

My plan is to get the game done by August 11th, which is Touhou Project's 20-year anniversary. Rest assured, unless something goes incredibly wrong I will have something available for download by then.


I've tried to address most of the jam version complaints (skippable scoring screen, more Touhou enemies/weapons, enemies reacting to more noises so you can't just trivialize EVERYTHING with stealth) but there's still time to do more changes if needed - if you have encountered any bugs/gripes, speak up now!


Here's some (incredibly low-bitrate) gameplay footage of one of the new levels:
