"Castle of Shikigami 2" is finally coming to Steam!!
Hello, Shikigami fans!
We are pleased to announce that the second installment of the dramatic shooter that gained popularity in the arcades is now coming to Steam with +α elements!
"Castle of Shikigami 2" is scheduled to be released this December. Wishlist it right now in case you miss it out!.
Game Overview
Players choose one of seven (+1?) characters, each with different unique abilities, and use their shots, special Shikigami attack, and bombs to destroy the enemy. The unique backgrounds of each character are intricately intertwined, creating an interesting storyline for the shooter.
In between of total 5 stages, different demos (stories) will be played for each character, and when playing with two players, a completely different story unfolds depending on the combination of characters used, all of which are fully voiced (in Japanese).
New Features
New Entry Mode Revamped enemy placement in all stages, lots of changes that will surprise even the most experienced!
Brand New Translation We know everyone is waiting for this!
Dramatic Change Mode Operates with 1P switching between characters, and you get the same demo as when there's 2P!
Enjoy the storyline with the different personalities of each of the seven (+1?) main characters!
Fight using three types of attack methods: normal attack, shikigami attack, and special attack
5 stages in 3 parts (each stage x 3 parts + a boss in each part)
Aim for a high score with the TBS (Tension Bonus System), which allows players to earn high scores by getting close to enemies or enemy bullets.
Two player simultaneous play (local only)
Plenty of Steam achievements and trading cards available

We'll be in contact with our three winners, umami_chan, eternal166 and uzu51_ shortly in order to get their prizes to them.
And here's umami_chan's winning score:

Castle of Shikigami - Major (free!) Update
The team has been working hard on improving the game and thanks to your feedback we have a large update to release today. The details are below, but we still have more to come, so stay tuned!
Update Details
Added Slowdown option Accessed via the Options, this can be turned on or off. The slowdown is as close as we can get to the original console releases, but will vary depending on your PC.
Added Practice Mode Accessed via the main menu. New stages are opened once you've reached them in the main game. Each character's practice stages are independent, so unlocking stages for one character will not unlock them for the others. Scores are local only.
Fixed leaderboard issues Without getting into technical discussions, the problem here is that Shikigami's scores are larger than Steam's leaderboards can cope with, so the approach we took was to divide the scores uploaded to Steam by 10, while leaving the in-game scores faithful to the original game.
Changed Extend scores to match original game
Very Easy: First 100,000,000 and every further 100,000,000 points
Easy: First 100,000,000 and every further 200,000,000 points
Normal: First 150,000,000 and every further 300,000,000 points
Hard: First 200,000,000 and every further 400,000,000 points
Very Hard: First 250,000,000 and every further 400,000,000 points
As always, if you have any issues post-update, please post them here.
Thanks, the Shikigami team.
Castle of Shikigami: Major update on the way!
The Shikigami team have been busy working on an update to address some of the requests and issues we've been receiving from all of you. It's being tested at the moment, so we hope to bring you some good news soon.
However, as it effects the way the scoring system works and overall game difficulty, we will need to reset or renew the leaderboards when it launches. We don't make the decision lightly, but its neccessary in order to provide an even better gaming experience to you all.
Thanks, the Shikigami team.
Castle of Shikigami V1.0.10 Released
We have just released version 1.0.10 with the following updates:
Bug Fixes
Score Upload: Fixed a crash occurring when the score could not be uploaded to leaderboard
Added a warning message when the game detects Steam is offline and will not be able to upload score
Changes/ New features
Higher resolution font and new text rendering method
Characters have been added for name display
Score has been changed closer to the original arcade
With regards to scores, Castle of Shikigami has seen many versions and scoring varied from one to another. We chose to listen to fans and restore a score system closer to the original arcade version of the game.
Since new scores will be ~10 times larger than previous scores for the same gameplay, we chose not to delete the existing leaderboard as it will be surpassed as soon as top players play again.
We were certain kumi_Gckogasa05 was going to take it, until umami_chan swept in at the last second like some secret boss. Ele8901 put in a great showing too and we'd love some hints and tips about topping the 20 million points mark!
Random prizes go to _SOKURO in 8th and Zeqoe in 12th. We'll be contacting all our winners soon, so please hold on.
