As someone who's been working with DMF forever, this game doesn't look as bad as you make it out to be. Balance and polish are non-existent, but a lot of your complaints about the danmaku itself are undeserved.
@Onthenet9999 I was being overly rought for the sake of humour. Some of the ideas are interesting (Hands of Time is a neat concept, poorly executed) but cards like Scissor-Sweeping Beams just reek of laziness. You'll fail the first time around - not because it's difficult, but because of a cheap gimmick. (Not saying ZUN isn't guilty of this too - hey there, Honest Man's Death!)
In all the game feels like it had potential, but it was only half-finished, and a good bit of that half was lazy.
Cheapness, I agree the lawn gnome sucks. But concept, it's on par with another Touhou fangame, which has a final boss in the form of a Reimu's apparently giant, disembodied head.
It would appear Periphery of Power was never actually 'finished'. Either way? Goddamn.
It's sad - a couple ideas may actually be salvageable - the 'clock' card for instance, if faster with smaller bullets, for instance, could work decently and I could see it being used. But it really does feel like a first attempt at scripting that someone decided was somehow worth releasing, when it never should have been.

You're such a fucking retarded whiner, jesus fucking christ. I like how you accidentally admit that you hacked the damage of Master Spark though.
I want you to choke to death, preferably with my assistance.
