If you want to play the game in japanese language just set LANG=ja_JP %command% and you are good to go, the problems starts when you want to use thcrap(touhou community reliant automiatic patcher) on linux/steam deck. The problem is that it has to be forcibily wrapped in order to not lose steam integration
For the convience and ease of use try this script [https://github.com/tactikauan/thcrap-steam-proton-wrapper]
MarisaB is not patched :troll:
works alright - the D-Pad didn't seem to want to work by default (I played with the analog stick and older Touhous seem to do this anyways) and the configuration menu is garbled due to lack of Japanese (default configuration should be fine anyways - if you need to change something in it, you probably already know what to change anyways. the initial setup seems to be a sticking point, as you can accidentally launch it in windowed mode this way, but i guess i just got lucky). Game itself runs fine, nothing particularly wrong.
English support via Thcrap is a pain - I couldn't get the launcher to work natively, but the standalone package works with a workaround. By putting the standalone game translation in the main folder, if you rename it to "custom.exe" and rename the actual custom.exe to something different, you can play the English version by selecting the configuration option when booting the game. Handy little tip! I didn't count this in the actual verdict because it's a mod, however. The game, on its own, works fine. Modding it is just a pain.
Out of the box. 60 fps. No problems, but
It is Japanese game, so maybe some gui showed ?????????? on text because there is no Japanese fonts on Wine. But, it is not break deal.
Works out of the box
I was able to play the game in English as well using the thpatch Standalone Patches. Rename the original executable to whatever you want and rename "th10 (thpatch-en).exe" to "th10.exe". Edit ./thcrap/config/games.js (or if it's an older version, ./thcrap/games.js) to point to the original executable which you renamed. You can do the same for the configuration tool.
Custom wrapper script
In order to play with thcrap, while keeping Steam integration, use this wrapper: https://github.com/tactikauan/thcrap-steam-proton-wrapper
Requires manual controller layout and ticking the appropriate boxes in a configurator that only shows question marks instead of Japanese symbols.
Other reviews have described the required adjustments.
Swapped A and X buttons, because in my opinion adjusting the speed and bombs are more important to be next to each other (and more often used).
Text is partially cut off on the top
The first time I tried to start the game, it was crammed into the top of the screen.
Needs correct configuration which is near impossible to setup unless you know what each box does without text.
Changed d-pad and joystick mapping to "Joystick." Also turned off the back buttons and bound focus and fire to LT and RT.
Steam Deck doesn't support Japanese locale by default, so the initial popup is all ????s. Pick the right button, and untick the box to make the popup go away next time.
Text is slightly cut off at the top. Admittedly not sure if this is intentional, since I usually play with the English patch on Windows. It makes reading kanji a bit harder, but still readable.
Bind d-pad to function as joystick
Select the second option when booting Mountain of Faith, otherwise your game window will become tiny and distorted.
By default, the startup launcher and controller configuration launcher display error characters. This is also the case on Windows when launching Mountain of Faith from a computer not set to Japanese locale. The game itself displays text correctly.
The default controller config assigned by the developers doesn't function properly. Set your config to "Gamepad with mouse trackpad" and bind d-pad to function as joystick, and you'll be ready to play.
Other than the janky launchers and nonfunctional default controller configuration, Mountain of Faith plays perfectly.
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%
Used D3D because my GPU doesn't support vulkan. Had slight slowdowns while using full rendering, runs well using 1/2 rendering.
The game works fine, just make sure to go into the Steam settings and enable "Force the use of [Proton]"
Same thing I said previously. When using 1/2 rendering or 1/3 rendering, the input was fine.
When using the maximum rendering (the first first option, to the left of "1/2"), there was notable latency after keyboard input. Not sure if this happens on Windows, though.
Game works perfectly out-of-the-box, you just need to make sure about the window resolution you are using.
My video card is a bit old and does not support Vulkan.
Game crashes if you try to launch the game in a resolution bigger than your monitor and in full screen. Both the conditions need to be met, so launching in windowed mode or with a resolution smaller than your monitor in full screen is fine.
All details about the setup I did are available at https://gist.github.com/kazuyanakamura/85c85bc62ac5a10646c24b6b7cf7c134

Use PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% to run.
Vulkan is not compatible with my GPU.
I've installed the following fonts via protontricks: fakejapanese, fakejapanese_vlgothic.
I also have inserted the command LANG="ja_JP.utf8" on "set launch options" to emulate the japanese locale, so the game displays the japanese characters then.
