HYPER SNOW DRIFTER
A downloadable snowy STG for Windows
A refreshingly snowy Touhou STG featuring Narumi Yatadera!
With the power of love, peace, and bullet golems, tame a chaotic Forest of Magic and thaw freezingly dangerous attacks!
Winter in Gensokyo has arrived, but the ordinary jizo Narumi Yatadera just can't get a break! With Marisa busy with an adventure elsewhere, the Forest of Magic is holding a days-long celebration full of partying, drinking, and freezing frogs, and she's sick of her sleep being disrupted!
Destroy enemies quickly with her simple-but-effective Fire Blast shot-type to obtain Pink Stars and increase Gold Value. When the time is right, unleash Narumi's Bullet Golem, allowing her to obtain valuable Gold Stars, clear bullets, and gain additional lives through racking up high scores!
But beware: the dynamic difficulty system (Rank) will not go easy on skilled players as enemies become more and more aggressive! Plus, two familiar icy bosses await with the most dangerous of winter-y danmaku attacks...

Why is the name based on Hyper Light Drifter?
I... actually have no idea, it just appeared in my mind. I haven't even played the game!
