Afterword Shanghai Alice Correspondence vol.1 Team Shanghai Alice Leader ZUN 2002/08/11 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spoilers are present, so for people who haven't cleared the game, read at your own discretion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ But it's just extra writing.

Omake Afterword ==================================================================== Nice to meet you, this is ZUN. For those who have already met me, then this isn't the first time we've met. This C62 Summer Comiket is my first time as a participant. I hope you enjoy the games I make from now on. In some sense, I suppose this would be considered my maiden game? Embodiment of Scarlet Devil is a game made by a danmaku moe artist for those who are danmaku moe. These days, the independent and commercial shmups have been slowly, but silently, evolving at a rate that was unthinkable only a few years ago. However, to narrow the scope to only danmaku shmups, I'm feeling a bit dissatisfied with the direction that it's currently headed. The main issues are the rapid inflation of difficulty, games that have only a lot of bullets, effects that are fancy and beautiful, but are not easy on the eyes; and games with new systems that don't require dodging bullets. That is my opinion. Many of them are usually fun to play as games, but even though that might be fine as it is, in some instances it might give the impression that "Dodging bullets is not fun; of course there are going to be a lot of bullets in an shmup." If they don't try to find dodging bullets fun, why don't they try to reconsider why they would play a shmup if the enemies' shots were gone?
