Scarlet Devil Mansion
"The Scarlet Devil Mansion – Remilia’s home. From Touhou Project.
I’m bad at drawing."
[Stage original release: 20.05.09]
–Overview–
The Scarlet Devil Mansion (紅魔館), where most of Touhou Koumakyo (紅魔郷) takes place. Draw elements from the fighting games mostly and the red moon from the original game, but the stage itself meant to represent Koumakyo only.
This is my first stage, as so it was given a very basic form, based on the Kalos Stadium from Smash for. The reason I chose the Kalos layout is because I always prefer legal layouts, and the Kalos one seems unique but kind of unused one. So it’s its chance to shine, or at least a little more. I really don’t think the stage looks any good as it very lacking overall. But I never mind it. It’s simple and with no gimmick at all – just as the game it’s based on, and as I like it.

–Songs–
★ Septet for a Dead Princess (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil) [music_loop]
★ U.N.Owen Was Her? (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil) [music_loop2]
★ Locked Girl ~ The Girl’s Sealed Room (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil) [music_loop3]
★ Lunar Clock ~ Luna Dial (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil) [music_loop4]
I thought this final choice was "okay". Mostly because as the time passed, I start seeing Locked Girl not as good as other songs. In fact, I wanted to add Meiling’s theme instead, but I felt the songs need to represent the inside of the mansion (despite my stage bringing you outside of the mansion, technically), that is why I ended up choosing Patchouli’s theme instead. I really wanted to bring stage themes too, but I felt the need to represent bosses instead, reason why every song is a boss theme. Adding the fact boss music fits better for battles (obviously), I didn’t see reason to bring stage music at the end.

Because of the recent update, I thought I have to update this. So, I added the Basic form. The original form based on the Kalos League stage remains as the Aether form, while the new Basic just remove the platform, basically creating a Final Destination layout. So it is its Omega form. :T

Rework to all the graphics. While almost everything go update, it’s the same design. No other changes were made. The layout is the very same, as so is the limit of the stage. And the music is also unchanged; I want to keep it untouched.
