I have an touhou idea, but does it work? I need help

[Gwynebloom]

A bullet hell Touhou game, but more advanced in the style of Touhou.

The idea goes beyond a simple Touhou, but rather to try to make it more interactive and with more story and the possibility of not only having bullets on the screen, but... BOOBS. Now, seriously, probably sexual attacks at inopportune moments, and even, for example, if we play as Reimu and certain bullets hit her, her clothes will tear and all that. But also having attacks where, if you're careless, the enemy, who in a normal game would dodge and keep his distance, here jumps on you and tries to rape you.

Although of course, it's a Touhou, the idea is to balance the spiciness with the fun of a Touhou and its music.

The protagonists would be female, with Reimu probably being the first and Marisa the second, but it's likely that all the known waifus could be played.

I thought the story would be with a waifu who caused all the trouble, like a new succubus enemy resulting in new enemies to fight and moments where the Touhou characters have to face each other... but even without clothes! Among the ramblings of what I thought of ideas, I might include the player as a coach and as a piece within the game and its story and interact and socialize with waifus (like Touhou Lost World). The fights are more between women, I mean, imagine Reiumu against Marisa and well, everything escalates to something sexual. (maybe like touhou 9 i thinked)

I think I could program something like that; I thought about using Unity or Godot.

However, art is something I'm not good at, and I know that pixel art or 2D drawing is something I don't do, and ai art is something I honestly don't like... and as a writer i need help too.

So, I need advice for that and to see if the project is viable (I know it's possible, but I don't know if it's viable knowing that I can't do art).

as you know there is alreay 3d and 2d game on f95 site who does that
Unreal Engine The Parasites [v0.1.2.5.0] [Rab-Bit]
Unreal Engine Spermapocalypse [v1.2.4F] [VulKhan]
Unity The Outcast Tribe [v0.2.9] [WegildDev]
VN Ren'Py The Dance with Fire [v0.0.2.5] [MoonFire Games]
RPGM Hazel's Journey [v22c2] [Famished]
and many more

None of those are what I'm suggesting at first glance, I suppose they'll have bullet hell minigames in the style I'm referring to?

if you looking for artist you should post it on recruitment-services , there you can find more people that is interesting in helping.
i will recommend you to make a prototype before you find a artist to make anything, since you don't even know if you can do it as i see you are a writer learning how to coding and game design .

but is there not alot of fan art for Touhou , can't just use it first ?

alot of people that only have ideal and want to find people to do it for them, and no one like it, so you should ask your self why will any one help you , is not about money only.

and you need advice for that and to see if the project is viable , is what does viable mean to you, earn alot of money? can be done in coding? can be done by you alone? all i can say with out knowing the detail is this, you will only know when you try it .

nah is not about money, I don't plan on selling or anything, if it becomes something relevant just a subscriber and that's it, but it's not about money, but more about whether it's viable for me to create all that alone, although yes, I require an artist... Yes, I'm thinking of using Touhou 9 sprites directly to create the engine base and for the H or visual novel scenes, that is, conversations, portraits and such, directly koikatsu, but the issue is pixel art, I don't think it's a good idea to make a koikatsu render fly and shoot... so for now I'm thinking of using Touhou 9 sprites but only for testing, not for the final result, I wouldn't like to use original resources from official games, but I would like to maintain a similar but original style.

only for portraits and vn situations i thinked on koikatsu, not for the gameplay, i really want a anime style or cartoon, not 3d like hs2

there will be artist willing to help making art for fun and free if you can make the game more then 50 %. alot of people love to ask artist to draw , but they don't understand drawing is harder then writing and coding since you can't really reuse drawing.

so i will recommend to make the game with place holder, and when you have something to show, ask for artist , i am sure you will get a artist to help but it will be very slow if you not paying, since the artist will do it for fun. and you should be thinking of getting a few artist over 1 artist basically asking artists to donation if you have no money to pay, i a artist, i don't mind donation some art but donation 100 of art will be hard( if you need that much) .

The idea is the typical fight-or-get-raped platformer, but as a bullet hell. I personally don't think those things mix well, especially due to how much concentration tohou requires and how the sexy stuff as you described will be little more than distractions.
