Hello, everyone! We are thrilled to announce that Gensokyo Odyssey is celebrating its first anniversary today! It's been an incredible journey so far, and we couldn't have done it without youour wonderful community. Your passion and support have been the driving force behind this project, and I want to thank you for making this game the success that it is, and it's growth thus far. As one of the things to celebrate this milestone, we've put together some of the Behind the Scene footage from the cutscenes of Gensokyo Odyssey! Enjoy! [previewyoutube=JTeHiTMII0Y;full][/previewyoutube] Also, for today only, we're bringing back the 2021 Ren'py version of Gensokyo Odyssey! For those who dont know, Gensokyo Odyssey was first created as a small game for the 2021 Touhou Game Jam, developed in under 72 hours. Against all odds, it won 1st place as an underdog victory, and the rest is history! Ever since, many players have asked about seeing the original version that started it all. And so, we're excited to offer a limited-time chance to experience (or re-experience) the jam entry that launched the game! You'll definitely be able to tell it was made in under 72 hours, though. The game will be available for download on Windows and Mac here for today onlyso dont miss your chance to play it!
On the Gensokyo Odyssey discord server, many people have asked for many different kinds of merch to enter the lineup, so today we're holding a poll for what the new Gensokyo Odyssey merch should be! There are a few options there like a Mad Alice fumo, Gensokyo Odyssey Logo shirt, and more. If you want to check the poll out for yourself, you can click here for the server invite. But don't vote for Kakkoi socks. Please. While its fun to revisit where Gensokyo Odyssey began, we're much more excited about where it's headed! Weve got a lot of updates and new content planned such as the Laundromat and beyond, and we cant wait to share more with you all soon. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and support over the past year!

Hi, everyone! A lot of things have happened since the last game update which was only a month ago, and I'd glad to finally be able to share some things with you! In preparing for the Laundromat update, we've added a few things to the game, the centerpiece being something I've been meaning to add since the game's release... The Gallery! Now, you can see what characters you've met and faced off against, and see who's left for you to meet! And as you play and progress through the game, the list will expand.
Additionally, you can also click on them to learn more about these characters, including some stuff you may not have known! All progress you've previously made in the game has been carried over in the Gallery, so it's up to date! The gallery progress you've made stays with you even if you start a New Game, and you can check it out anytime in the Main Menu.
Along with this update, some minor bug fixes have been added, Eirin's fight has been made slightly easier, and a softlock case during Kakkoi's second fight has been fixed. I would also like to announce that Gensokyo Odyssey has been granted eligibility for Steam profile items/points store! We've made a nice selection of profile backgrounds, animated stickers, and emoticons for you to enjoy and decorate your Steam profile with! You can check all of them out in the Points Shop at any time!

Along with this, we've released a set of trading cards! Try and collect them all! Everyone who bought the game will automatically receive a few card drops.
Thank you for your continued support and love of the game, and I hope you enjoy it to its fullest extent and have fun!

Hi, everyone. Today is November 14, a special day for both me and the game. It's my birthday, sure, but it also marks when Gensokyo Odyssey began development 3 years ago. Three years is of course a long time, and yet, it feels like yesterday when I was just starting to envision the game and characters like Kakkoi. It's been quite the journey, filled with challenges, learning experiences, and joyful moments, and seeing all the work and love everyone put into this game finally be shown and playable for everyone to enjoy is very rewarding. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support and enthusiasm for Gensokyo Odyssey. Seeing your kind comments, fan art (especially the fan art wow), and excitement for the game has been incredibly motivating and heartwarming. I'm grateful to have such a wonderful community around this project. While there's still much more to come for Gensokyo Odyssey, I'm proud and happy with what we've achieved so far. I hope this project continues to bring joy and entertainment to everybody, and I look forward to seeing where it will go in the future.

Kakkoi's Money Laundromat Sneak Peak

Much like Gensokyo Odyssey itself, this tiny minigame that was meant to be a small joke cookie-clicker type Easter egg for the game is growing into something bigger. I don't want to spoil a lot of it, but here's a little sneak peek at some screenshots.

Kakkoi Fumo Plush

Yes, it's happening. I've been asked many, many times to release a Kakkoi fumo. I've considered it many times, but the cost to produce them is high and isn't something I can pay for out of pocket. And even so, don't know if there would be enough interest in them to make it worth the cost. So heres the deal-- if we reach the fundraising goal of $1000 by around a month from now, I will release and produce a Kakkoi Fumo plush. If we don't reach the 1000$ goal, those who have donated will not be charged and the plush will not be made. I've made a Kickstarter campaign where you can pledge money towards the goal and receive Kakkoi fumo(s) and exclusive Gensokyo Odyssey merchandise. This technically counts as ordering for the fumos too, so if you ever in your life want or plan on buying a Kakkoi fumo, now is the time to do it. Usually, fumos cost around 60$ now (or from scalpers, around 200$), but those prices are with the main intention of profit and use artificial scarcity to drive prices higher. If I make a Kakkoi fumo, I'd like to make it more accessible to the average fan, so for those who pledge in the Kickstarter within a month, the price to receive a Kakkoi fumo is 30$. After that, it will go up to 40$ and stay there if produced. For more information you can check out the Kickstarter page. So there you have it! If you want to see a Kakkoi Fumo become a reality, pledge to the Kickstarter and help us reach our goal. Thank you for considering and supporting us on this endeavor!

Hello everyone! It's been a while since the last game update (we are far more active and informative on the Gensokyo Odyssey Discord server) and I've come with a lot of news regarding the game. First off, the game update itself. This update is v2.0 and includes quite a large amount of changes.

• Subtitles added to all the cutscenes, you can turn them on in the Preferences menu
• 3 new achievements in the fights
• A new "overtime" phase has been added to the secret boss, giving an alternate way to defeat them
• Dialogue has been added to Kakkoi's boss fight (MORE LORE!! YAHOOO!!!!)
• Resolution now defaults to whatever resolution you'd like to set it to
• New dialogue has been added to the Blackjack Minigame
• Fixed a softlock when playing Blackjack immediately after beating the game for the first time
• Bug fixes on some fights
• A few more QoL additions that I forgot to mention

This update also introduces the Russian localization of the game! For the first time since the game's release, people who aren't fluent in English can enjoy the game. This is the first of what I hope to be many translations of the game. People from all over the world deserve the chance to be able to enjoy the game, so if you'd like to localize the game for your language, feel free to contact us at gensokyoodyssey@gmail.com
In other news, I'll be adding a new post-game minigame, Kakkoi's Money Laundromat. This has been mentioned on the Gensokyo Odyssey discord server and is more frequently discussed there. Kakkoi went and gambled all her money on blackjack. Idiot. What better way to get her money back than to "take back" what's rightfully hers, in the form of a daring robbery? Or two? Or ten? Or as many as it takes to get it all back? With a little style, a little cunning, and a lot of adrenaline, Kakkoi... wait, if people see her robbing again they might remember her, and the police most certainly will if she gets caught! That's right, we're gonna let Okuu, Kakkoi's trusty right-hand and muscle, do the robbing. After all, she likes blowing people up. But with all that new hard-earned moola, you can't just go around town with bags of cash! Luckily, Kakkoi has the perfect solution: money laundering! Set up a few front businesses, open a casino or two (maybe even gamble your cash there!), and voila - clean, legitimate money. Upgrade Okuu's heist skills by teaching her what and what not to do in robberies, persuade other characters and their businesses to join you via charisma or blackmail, pimp out your room, and watch your fortune grow. Just remember to keep your schemes discreet, because if the police catch on, it's game over! Stay one step ahead of the law... and your own greed! I have a much larger content update planned after development on this is complete, so stay tuned. Other than that, have a good day and a happy Halloween in advance! (please dont scare the children with a kakkoi cosplay)

Hello, everyone. This week's update is meant to make some of the game's hardest fights (barring the secret boss) easier. - In Yukari's second phase, Healing is doubled to 20 HP - Hisoutensoku's damage is decreased - In Kakkoi's first fight, the chances for her to steal MP is decreased - Fixed a few text errors Last time I spoke to you, I mentioned hypothetical major Kakkoi-related content in the future. In that time, I've heard from a few people directly that they would love to see more of her. However, I'm not sure if that sentiment is shared by the majority of players, and I don't want to oversaturate or force Kakkoi onto those who aren't interested. I think it's important to show restraint and not overwhelm the community with too much Kakkoi content. I also have plans to translate the game for Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian speakers, and I would like to focus on that before delving into major new content. That being said, if the demand is there and enough players are interested, I will definitely consider creating more content featuring Kakkoi in the game. I may start a poll on the game's Twitter Account regarding this in the near future, so please keep an eye out and let us know your thoughts. In the meantime, please share the game with your friends. Your enthusiasm and feedback means a lot to me and helps me make each update better and more enjoyable for everyone. Thank you all once again for your continued support and stay tuned for more updates in the coming days.

Hello, This is one of a stream of small updates that will be released throughout the coming days. - Tutorial boss fight fix - More character voice blips - Bug fixes in fights - Secret way to skip a certain boss There may be major Kakkoi-related content in the future, but that depends on if people are interested in seeing it. I don't have a census of how many players like Kakkoi and want to see more of her, so please let us know however you'd like. In the meantime, expect a couple more small updates to the game.

[ 2024-07-13 15:30:58 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hi, everyone. I've been a little busy this week with the logistics of the Kakkoi posters, so I haven't been at my computer much this week. However, I did get around to fixing a few bugs some people mentioned. Here's a patch update fixing some of those things: -Fixed cutscene skipping with Esc key -Fixed some of the minigames -Fixed up byakuren fight - Rinnosuke does not talk about Kakkoi posters. He does not. Trust me

Hey guys, how ya doin? It's ya favorite mafia gal Kakkoi WHO 100% PAYS TAXES I DO NOT HATE THE IRS
Now I gotta tell yous all bout the new big update for the game, lotsa shit added. Lets start with the big sutff. MP got a little rework, you find yourself saving up to use specials all the time? Now the cost's been lowered by a lot! Fights are more fun now, but what's the catch? Ya gotta complete a little minigame to deal that extra damage, each boss with a different unique special Most bosses got their own special minigames, have a sneakpeak at a few in these tiny ass pictures


Whole lotta new stuff added to post-game blackjack, got a lot more shit to talk about now. And if yous lookin to make some good money flippin cards, I straight up told the casino to hand out decks with easier hands and they said sure LMAO idk how that worked I guess they're fuckin magicians or something. But yeah whole lotta new shit after you beat the game
In the normal story, some dialogue's been added too idk what Kron was thinkin cause the game's long enough as is, bro me and Okuu were up all night beatin the final boss halfway through Okuu says "hey that looks like me" and I tell her to drink seltzer water So maybe even with new dialogue yadda yadda yous replaying the game, and ya tryna skip through the text by slappin your keyboard like a fuckin maniac, right? Not anymore! Now ya can hold "X" to skip all that text I mean you already beat the game not like you need to see that shit twice Volume slider's been changed to be a lil bit more balanced so nothing can ever blast your eardrums Some of those cutscenes that everyone loves got some new stuff in em, for example, a voice cameo by Drewski on Youtube love that guy and notably some special shit in the final cutscene, but I can't spoil that at all yous gotta see it for yourself Now we gotta talk about the secret boss, we made is so that now all ya gotta do is-- WAIT WHAT. FUCK YOU MEAN MOKOU DIDN'T PAY HER GODDAMN 200 BUCKS SHE OWES US Alright mfs me and okuu gotta fuck some bitches up see ya LETS GO

Hello, everyone! I'm working on a very major update of the game This update will include:

• Adding unique special minigames for most bosses
• Greatly expanding and refining post-game Blackjack
• Refining and adding to some cutscenes (including a cameo from a certain Walfas lover)
• Balancing some fights
• Adding more dialogue
• A reworking of the MP system
• Reworked volume slider
• Many bug fixes
• More leniency towards requirements for the Secret Boss route
• Making the game more speedrun/replay-friendly
• Post-game art gallery
• Much more!

This update will go live on Friday, June 7th at 2pm EST. If you are planning on playing or replaying the game, I suggest you do it then.
The 64 song, 3 hour long soundtrack is now availably on Spotify and other streaming services! It is also available on iTunes, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora, and many more. If you don't have any of these services, it's also available on my channel for free.
The overwhelming majority of Touhou games (and fangames) are only available on Windows. But, of course, not everyone uses Windows. All three operating systems have their advantages and disadvantages, and people choose them accordingly by preference. I don't see it fit to punish people for their preferences by gatekeeping this game for Window users only. I think that anyone who wants to play this game on Steam has every right to do so, regardless of operating system. This is why I've released a Linux port of the game. Gensokyo Odyssey is now available on all three possible OSs; Windows, Mac, and Linux/SteamOS, making Gensokyo Odyssey one of the only Touhou-related games to be available on all three.
That's all I have right now, be ready for Friday!

Hi! It's been a month since the release of Gensokyo Odyssey. I would like to thank everyone for the high praise the game has received this past month, which has greatly exceeded my expectations of audience reaction. I have poured years of work into this project, and it means everything to me that it has been so well-received. I want to thank all the players for your support and feedback, which have been extremely helpful in improving the game and making it even better. I've recently finished a semester and now I am able to return to further refinement of the game. We're working on adding: - Adding unique special minigames for most of each boss - Expanding post-game Blackjack - Refining some cutscenes (including a cameo from a certain Walfas lover) - Balancing some fights - Adding more dialogue - More leniency towards requirements for the Secret Boss route
As for releasing the soundtrack on platforms like Spotify and other streaming services, I've received many questions regarding the status of this. I've been working towards release for over a month; well before the game's release. Unfortunately, in my pursuits I have been thoroughly convinced that many distributors do not provide service congruent to the demands of the public. Despite my efforts, it seems the time when the soundtrack releases is at the mercy and leisure of these distributors. As such, I cannot promise or provide an ETA. Rest assured that I will continue to strive for a timely release for the enjoyment of the people. For the time being, the soundtrack is streamable on BandCamp, playable on YouTube, and downloadable on Steam. There may be more frequent updates on this matter on my Twitter page in the future. https://twitter.com/Kronington Thank you for your patience, and stay tuned!

A minor update to the game before a major one next week, - Puck movement is now set on a toggle; you only need to click your paddle once to start/stop moving it, rather than continually holding click down to move it - In fights, you can now press L twice to reset - Save system fixes - Softlock fixes - Minor fixes to the secret boss - Kakkoi's arm is tired from throwing so many grenades; grenade speed nerfed Stay tuned!

Hope you enjoy it! - Yuyuko Special Minigame - Made grenade attack easier - Made Yuyuko's attacks easier - Made final gap attack easier - Volume slider in Preferences - Various save file and bug fixes - More blackjack dialouges - Made secret boss easier to access - Removed Herobrine or something idk
