Description

A simple cheat feature such as "unlimited lives and bombs" for the shooters would be very useful to have.

Among other reasons, I personally need it to record videos of the game stories (since I do not possess the necessary play skills).

"Just use skip mode then". I would, but skip mode de-syncs the dialogue from the backgrounds, which add to the aethetics of the story mode.

"What about cheat engine?" It is counterproductive to have yet another process running in the background. Also, cheat engine has a steep learning curve and is not very intuitive to use. Besides, all the Touhou code tables are fragmented all over different web forums and need some deep digging to discover.

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating how the shooters handle lives, bombs, and game state, then determine how a cheat mode could preserve dialogue and background synchronization. Done would mean an agreed implementation scope and a working unlimited-lives-and-bombs feature for recording story videos.
