This is the repository for all assets used in the The Art of Danmaku: The Basics of Touhou Game Mechanics and Elegant Danmaku Patterns panel at Touhoufest 2026.
Have you ever been at awe of the danmaku patterns in your favourite Touhou games which are visually complex yet simple in elegance? Even more, have you always wanted to make a Touhou game of your own, yet felt completely lost on where even to begin? Here, we'll explore the process of making a Touhou game and the most important part, how to construct bosses and danmaku patterns. While programming will be demonstrated, we will do our best to illustrate and describe concepts as simply as possible using at most high school mathematics.
