Urban Legend in Limbo (ULiL) is the 14.5th installment of the Touhou Project series and Twilight Frontier's 5th collaboration with Team Shanghai Alice. ULiL is basically a sequel to Hopeless Masquerade (TH13.5) and makes use of its predecessor's engine (with some tweaks here and there) for its gameplay. The DEMO of this game was recently release on the 29th December 2014 in Comiket 87.

So far, my impression on this game is pretty good.
I've hopped between HM and ULiL several times for control comparison, and I can say, I have a much better control of my character in the latter. A dedicated dash button (a 'la Soku) is also implemented which helps character movement tremendously and is a very much welcome addition.
The music is the main thing I'm looking forward to, and so far, I am quite pleased with it. Though oddly enough, the pre-battle theme is probably my favorite one out of the few tracks in this demo ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Bzbw8phalA ).

The occult ball gimmick is basically like the weather system in Soku, which activates every 20 seconds during the fight duration (or less with more mini-orb collected). I'm quite neutral towards it, though the few pauses that occur in summoning the occult ball can be a bit disruptive to the flow of the battle (and perhaps annoying to some people).

All in all, I'll certainly be looking forward to the game's full release.

Oh hey, the AI actually uses their spellcards this time. That's good ~!
