Well, I got the UFO demo version yesterday, and played a little (weirdest name ever). It seems like they took out the special abilities, or changed how they activate. Feels like MoF, with UFOs.
Speaking of UFOs, I keep running into bullets while chasing after them. I miss SA's ReimuB. =( Despite that, the UFO system is still fun. Innovative.
Let's see. If you don't want *spoilers*, don't read on, because I want to rant about the new stuff in UFO. ><
Boming in general has been improved. The bombs now do a whoooooole crapload of damage, especially Master Spark (YAY IT'S BACK).
Reimu's options are kinda nerfed this time around. Her needles are weaker than Marisa's lasers, and her homing doesn't always hit. They flutter. -_-
MarisaA - Illusion Laser, wins. It also helps to have that penetration when there is a UFO on the screen and 20 fairies blocking the way. I haven't really figured out MarisaB yet. It looks like some variation of Patchouli in SA, but no matter what I press, the option doesn't switch, and I die too much to power it up. >_>
SANAE OMG SHE WINS TOO. I find her options so enjoyable. SanaeA has very nice forward fire, and sideways homing, which is more accurate than Reimu homing. Just get used to catching items with the focus button. SanaeB ... um... confuses me. The spread is HUUUUUGE, and somewhat resembles Yuyuko's shots from IN, but then the impacts of the little dudes make weird explosions, and I'm not sure what they are supposed to do.
I've heard a lot of fanboys squealing about how Mannosuke finally has a male partner in Unzan, the clouds in the Stage 3 boss battle. That is a pretty hard boss, by the way, compared to ... Meirin, Alice, Keine-or-whatever-her-name-is, Parsee, etc.
Mouse girl is wtf, and tongue umbrella will invite a lot of improper doujin in the future.
Ok, I'm finally done. XD
Wait, one more. Music was not particularly memorable. Menu theme was just weird.
