Kekkai
by H2Sxxa
Kekkai is a Forge library for developers who build Touhou-style danmaku spellcard content on top of DanmakuCore.
What it does
Kekkai embeds DanmakuCore and offers an API that lets developers register spellcards without handling the underlying bullet engine directly. Its patches extend DanmakuCore, adding functionality the base library does not provide on its own.
The mod is aimed at developers who want to create Touhou Danmaku content for Minecraft 1.12.2. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Installation needs Minecraft Forge; MixinBooter is an optional dependency. The source code, issue tracker and wiki are publicly available, and the code is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, making it open source. First published on 2023-08-09 and last updated on 2023-10-24, the latest Forge file is 1.2.2 for 1.12.2. The author notes that no English translation is currently offered.

Touhou-style danmaku
