Touhou Luna Nights Reviews

Great game. It's a little on the easy side difficulty-wise but still difficult enough to be enjoyable. The only thing I don't like is the lack of a reminder page of how to use unlocked skills (for when you don't play after a while).

- short (affectionate) but could be shorter - good boss fights - good music - best use of time manipulation I've seen in a game - unfortunately doesn't make much use of the fact it's a metroidvania, it's almost frustratingly linear regarding what order you need to do things - absolute-worst fast travel point placements I've experienced, which is funny considering this team's next game straight-up lets you teleport to individual rooms on-demand (PLEASE add that mechanic to this I am on my HANDS and KNEES)

It's one of the best Platform Touhou Game I've ever played. Soundtracks are straight up banger. The boss are annoying sometimes but it takes few tricks to complete.I love the pixel arts and how they Idle. I love this game! Straight up 9/10 for me.

A fun and satisfying game, it has perfect difficulty for my skills: not too easy, not too hard. The game has been beaten for 100% and I'm gonna try other Ladybug Team's games in the future.

Quick thoughts: A somewhat small game, but very enjoyable precisely because of how lightweight it is. The game is just challenging enough for someone who hasn't played action games in a while and has next to no sense of direction when it comes to Metroidvanias. The story is appropriately Touhou, light with a twist, and the fights are fun with just enough danmaku to feel like a challenge without feeling overwhelming. The music is great and the animations are gorgeous.

solid graphics and gameplay. it's just too short.

Very fun and visually pleasing game. I recommend grinding jewels and buying all the knives and clocks before heading into the first boss as the game becomes both a lot more fun and easier if you're not missing any items or abilities. Overall very solid for a fangame

Takes a while to learn all the mechanics and "git gud", but when you do, it is super good. Fun and engaging bosses, cool abilities and nice visuals. Story was non-existent, buying upgrades was pointless (I didn't buy a single upgrade/potion, yet I completed both the main and side stories...) and exploration was really frustrating. The biggest problem is actually exploration - every time you move between rooms, enemies respawn and if you are unlucky, you can get some kind of stun lock and die. Oh yeah, and the last savepoint is like 5 rooms back with 5 more to the next safe place (of course it's only the healing machine, not the savepoint)... It's a really good game, but it has its flaws. If you are looking for a cool challenge, I definitely recommend this game. I had a lot of fun.

this is hands down my favorite metroidvania of all time. not a single bad song in the soundtrack, the combat flow feels fluid and rewarding, and the art direction of touhou project translates perfectly to this type of game. the prospect of being able to pause and slow time being just barely enough to give you the edge against the bosses in this game is a really cool one, and the graze mechanic is super fun too. the levels all flow pretty well into each other, and exploring the different areas and finding hidden walls/doors felt awesome when it happened organically. my only complaint is that the game is too short. words will not do it justice. 10/10, absolute peak.

the only bad parts about this game is that it's very short and you can finish it all in a day or two and that you don't have a lot of teleport portals throughout the map which makes back tracking a little bit annoying but overall it's a really fucking good metroidvania
