Hi! I came across your game while poring through Rust gamedev materials (as it so happens, I'm also making a Touhou fangame. Yours seems to be farther along than mine despite a shorter development period 😅).
I happened to notice that you're using assets from the official games (such as these sprites from Wily Beast and Weakest Creature), presumably as placeholders. Unfortunately, this is against the Guidelines for Touhou Project Fan Creators (English, Japanese). Specifically:
Your Fan Content should NEVER have:
...
Anything that is extracted from official Touhou Project games.
I'm not sure how big of a problem this is since this project seems to be early in development, but I thought that this might be good to know if you weren't aware of it already.
Incidentally, the use of Touhou characters may impact the license, since any artwork containing them likely can't be redistributed commercially without a license from ZUN. It might be prudent to state that the character designs are the property of Team Shanghai Alice and are not covered by the LICENSE file.

Thanks for the heads up @PatchMixolydic.
I switched the license template to GPL to make sure that any derivative work remains free to use/share and modify with the additional notice:
Teki is a free unofficial fan-made game based on the original Tōhō
Project series by ZUN. The character design assets are the property
of Team Shanghai Alice and are not covered by the LICENSE file.
As for the mentioned sprites (used in the PlayerSelect screen), I'll look for replacements asap.
