FabricNeoForgeServer-side onlyGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.21.4 – 26.1.2

What it does

Danmaku combat is the core of the mod. Weapons and abilities inspired by Touhou fire bullet patterns that can be customized, and the danmaku effects can be adjusted to suit the server. Moon Dream World dimensions and new structures tied to Gensokyo give exploration a setting of its own, with fantasy-themed blocks and decorations to build with.

Touhou characters and fantasy creatures appear in the world, and some can be recruited as companions. A cooking system and progression mechanics round out the content, and the mod includes Touhou character skins, Fumo-related textures and a model of Marisa's hat. Server owners get the mod through a server-side setup and install.

Architectury API and Fabric API are required, so both must be installed on the server. The mod is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 1.21.4 – 26.1.2 and 26.1.2 as the latest build. It is a fan-made project and is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
