{{nihongo||稀翁玉|'''Kioh Gyoku'''|lit. "''Rare Venerable Orb''"}} is a vertical-scrolling [[danmaku]] [[shooting game|shoot 'em up]], and is the second official game in the ''[[Seihou Project]]'' by "[[Shunsatsu sare do?]]" (at time part of [[Amusement Makers]]). It was released specifically for the [[Windows|Windows operating system]] around December time in 2001. It is a unique game where two players indirectly battle one another by charging and releasing charge attacks and bombs upon the other player, similar in the style of ''[[Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream]]''. | |||
Kioh Gyoku | ==Gameplay== | ||
{{Main|/Gameplay|l1=Gameplay|/Strategy|l2=Strategy}} | |||
''Kioh Gyoku'' is a vertical [[danmaku]] [[shooting game]] with massive emphasis on grazing streaming bullets, where two characters engage in danmaku gameplay within individual and separate play areas (aka. [[Wikipedia:Split-screen|split-screen]]). Upon meeting certain conditions, players are able to unleash a variety of character-specific attacks upon their opponents in an attempt to whittle down their remaining health points. | |||
In Story Mode, the player will face five opponents, each more capable than the previous. ''Kioh Gyoku'' also features a Match Play Mode where the player may face off against AI opponents or compete against other players, as well as watch AI vs. AI matches. | |||
Kioh Gyoku | ==Name and Concept== | ||
''Kioh Gyoku'' may have been based on the same vein of ''[[Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream]]''. Also, some of the art in this game was done by [[ZUN]], where he only drew [[Yuuka Kazami]]. | |||
The name {{lang|ja|稀翁玉}} is named after the Japanese-translated name of a cactus: "copiapoa krainziana". | |||

There is no story included with the game, and thus the only dialogue shown is winning quotes. | |||
== | ==Music== | ||
{{Main|/Music|l1=Music}} | |||
The soundtrack for the game was originally made with the Roland SC-88Pro [[w:MIDI|MIDI]] module. However, before the game's release, ZUN arranged and re-recorded the tracks using a different module. | |||
The music of this game includes 10 tracks composed by [[ZUN]], available in two separate versions. The WAV version is based on ZUN's later arrangement of the soundtrack, and it's the first time ever ZUN used <tt>[[wikipedia:WAV|.wav]]</tt> recordings for the music. The MIDI version is based on the original compositions, and will only play correctly on a SC-88Pro. Recordings of the MIDI versions made using this module can be found [https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,18989.0.html here]. | |||
Each theme (apart from the title theme) is designed for one of the player characters specifically, due to the nature of the game. | |||
Later on, ZUN remixed "''Lovely Mound of Cherry Blossoms ~ Flower of Japan''" ({{lang|ja|桜花之恋塚 ~}} Flower of Japan) and "''Enigmatic Doll ~ God Knows''" ({{lang|ja|エニグマティクドール ~}} God Knows), and included them in ''[[Dolls in Pseudo Paradise]]''. "''Enigmatic Doll ~ God Knows''" was renamed to just {{lang|ja|エニグマティクドール}}. | |||
