Touhou Mother (InstanceTopic, 22)
From Compile Worlds
Touhou Mother (Or Touhou Seiboroku, which means Star Mother Record) is an RPG Maker 2000 fangame by S-chan which is a crossover between the Touhou and Mother/Earthbound series.
Just like any Touhou doujin work, it's filled with references and memes. Even to an obscure 2ch joke character from a game that never saw the light of day.
Notable references (outside of Touhou and Mother) include Metroid, Pokémon, Castlevania, Cave Story, Yu-Gi-Oh, Metroid, Metabots and 2ch. As a Touhou fangame, it's natural to have over 9000 references, as seen here.
Yes, it's getting a sequel. You excited?

My plan at the moment
is first to beat up Porky
then to beat up the Starmen
then to beat up Kaguya
then to beat up Kanako
then to beat up Cirno
and then everything is right with the world!
Characters
Reimu's Party
- Reimu Hakurei, the resident medic protagonist with pretty offense stats. Has PK Dream and uses bombs, not psychic powers.
- Marisa Kirisame, the resident Glass Cannon, with awesome magic and speed, but pitiful physical ability.
- Yuuka Kazami, who's much slower than a two-toed sloth, but that makes her badass, because she critical hits quite a lot and wears a lot of dangerous equipment. Now with a straw hat.
- Mima-sama, the one with nearly everything. Nearly. Pretty much the only one with the ability to kill shields, thus saving everyone from
Enteithe Only God.
Sanae
- Sanae Kochiya, the "Player 2" shrine maiden, has a couple of arcs in this game, which are all a big parody of Metroid. Pretty weak, though Suwako gradually upgrades her equipment, and she's eventually able to fight Kanako, though ends in a draw...
Just as planned!
