New Gameplay: Combat Stage Mode
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After her house was destroyed, Marisa took her remaining books and fled into an underground passage. Don’t let her get away! Alice personally ventures deep into the lair, chasing Marisa with special dolls imbued with everyone’s feelings, to defeat her once and for all!
★ (After clearing part of the idle gameplay content, a wanted poster will be unlocked in front of Alice’s house. Click on the poster to play the new content.) ★
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New Meeting Point Rewards:
★ Clear Normal difficulty of the new gameplay to get an extra 5 Meeting Points.
★ Clear Hard difficulty to get an extra 10 Meeting Points.
★ Clear Lunatic difficulty to get an extra 22 Meeting Points.
Meeting Points are used in the idle gameplay section.

Fixed a bug that could cause the clear time to display as 0.
This game uses AI translation, which may contain inaccuracies.
1. Easter egg characters only need to be unlocked once. After obtaining the corresponding achievement, the easter egg characters will be automatically unlocked in each game (excluding Rin Satsuki and the Yorigami sisters; some characters can only be automatically unlocked after reaching the corresponding specific stage).
2. The number of stages required to unlock the meeting page has been generally reduced.
3. Tewi Inaba added a new upgrade: Prank. It can simulate player operations to click Marisa's house.
4. Sanae's upgrade cost is reduced, and new content is added to Sanae's meeting options (double recovery effect when drawing a Great Good Omen).
5. Brave Cirno's doll quantity requirement is canceled.
6. Weak point damage is calculated separately in the leaderboard, and the weak point clicking efficiency is optimized.
7. Satori Komeiji's meeting content is optimized (changed from 2 weak points to 1, and all weak point damage is doubled, including weak points created by other characters).
8. Suika's Giantization upgrade adjustment: Attack power is reduced, but attacks can automatically trigger all weak points.
9. Enhanced Iku Nagae's BUFF application efficiency. Enhanced Tenshi's ultimate skill damage.
10. Reduced one additional anchor attack of the Seirensen.
11. Significantly enhanced Yuuka's counterattack magic cannon damage, which will increase with stages.
12. Adjusted the number of projectiles Marisa throws in the late game: reduced the number of bottles and increased the number of Eight Trigrams Furnaces.
13. In Overload state, Scout Kappa's interception speed is increased by 100%.
14. The initial upgrade price of some characters is reduced, and the price of early-game characters is lowered.
15. Aya's News added new reminders: 1. Hold down the left mouse button to click automatically; frequent single clicks are not required. 2. Saving is not performed during the tutorial; saving is only available during normal game progress. Saving is also not possible during BOSS battles.
16. Fixed the BUG where the rocket explosion effect at the ending disappears when bullet transparency is turned off.
17. After completing stage 14 and entering stage 15, if the game is not ended by upgrading the \ project, a batch of Shanghai Dolls will be added as support (automatically increases the player's Shanghai Doll production by 2 levels for free).
18. Fixed the BUG where Shikieiki and Komachi disappear after clicking \ in stage 15.
19. Marisa's recovery efficiency was incorrectly compared with the recovery team; it has now been changed to compare with the damage team.
Thank you for your support~ As a casual mini-game, there are still many immature aspects—thank you for your understanding. Seeing everyone's enthusiasm and love for Touhou, we plan to add some small gameplay features to the update schedule later~ We believe everyone has defeated Marisa and reclaimed all the books. Did Marisa really fail? No, Marisa will never give up! She seems to be plotting something, and perhaps the battle to reclaim the books is far from over.
