Posted this on our forums, but figure it's worth clarifying here as well: Don't let the "Touhou" name fool you, as this isn't a mainline Touhou entry. Rather, it's a fan game made by another company, and it is -- for all intents and purposes -- another game in the Napishtim/Felghana/Origin line of Ys titles.
Like, straight-up, it's basically a spiritual followup to Ys Origin (multiple playable characters and all), but set in a variety of outdoor areas reminiscent of Felghana. And it's GORGEOUS -- I actually think that visually, it surpasses the games that inspired it, with some of the most colorful, detailed 3D backgrounds I've ever seen in an indie title. It joins the ranks of games like Astebreed in proving that indie does not necessarily equal pixel-art 2D, and in the right hands, indie 3D can truly be breathtaking.
What, you think this is all we've got? Come on, now! You know us better than that!

Figure I can pop my head in once more for this.

What push? You mean the untranslated release of a mainline game? Yeah, great effort.
This is as much a Touhou release as Jack Bros was an SMT game.
As long as Zun doesn't want his games being localized, there will never be anything more than a niche fandom for Touhou here. Stuff like this is not helping, and XSeed shouldn't settle for his table scraps.
