Touhou Project is a series of 2D vertical-scrolling shooting game made by Team Shanghai Alice, and some spin-off games made from collaboration with Twilight Frontier. Despite being just a 2D shooting game (like Space Impact, my friends said), the difficulty is awesomely making my eyes burning. The bullets are spread through the whole screen based on some unique-yet-deadly pattern, often called "Danmaku" (lit. means Bullet Hell). Here's the example of one Spell Card, the pattern executed by each boss on every stage in the game.
