So I finally broke down and downloading one of the games (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, because I'm a slave to doing things in chronological order), and I guess I have to ask if there's any advise for someone who doesn't play bullet hells much.

And my favorite song is Beloved Tomboyish Daughter, followed by U.N. Owen was her?. That might change if I heard more songs.

There is a retexture patch, which, in addition to making things look real awesome, also includes the option of making your hitbox permanently visible. Helps, although my record is still getting to Stage 5 on Easy with all my continues. I suck.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Thanks man, that looks a lot better. I kept the hitbox invisible, 'cause I'm a nut who likes a challenge :P

Ooh, nice. Thanks for that.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I love Flandre's theme, but Keine's theme is cool too.

Fake Edit: Cirno's got some phat beats too.

No, of course not, that would be stupid, but I was mislead to believe that right in front of Cirno was a safe spot.

I used to have more trouble with Icicle Fall then prefect freeze, if that was the last one (Was it? What was the last one).

Now Hong Meiling's attack that makes a windmill pattern, always got me. Wouldn't be that hard to dodge, were it not for the fact that trying to watch the bullets it trippy and distracts you because they appear to be jumping sideways. Hated that one...

Last one's Diamond blizzard. The real problem with her is her icicle shotgun though.

Yes. Her first nonspellcard :/

Really? Hm.
But Hong meiling.. Her first non-spellcard thing always caught me out, and rainbow wind chime was 'fun' to dodge though. I always get scared at her last spellcard, and so I bomb when I don't need to..

What really gets me every time is Princess Undine. That's the only time when I'm guaranteed to bomb.

Hm. Patchy isn't that bad.. Non-directional laser is annoying, but other than that, her spell cards are okay.

The only one I can reliably dodge is Philosopher's stone on easy modo :V
