Update
We need an update
Not compatible with modern versions of iOS
Don't buy, this app is very buggy
It’s ok but wish there were checkpoints
It’s fun but wish there were checkpoints so you don’t have to start over from the beginning
Broken on iOS13
The controls on iOS 13 are huge, cover the screen, and don’t respond properly, making the game unplayable.
Controls are too big and not optimized for large iPhones
Needs update. Controls take up half screen when playing iPhone XS Max and iOS 13
Excellent retro shooter
Please make sure you keep updated for latest iOS developers, thank you
R-Type 2
It's SO FREAK'N GREAT having both this and the original R-Type available on my phone. These two games were the first shmups that I ever played and the fact hat I'm playing them almost 30 years later is a testament to how incredibly amazing they are. And... thousands of people are in the same boat as I am - so, if you're questioning yourself while hovering over the 'buy' button, I'll just say this:;: DotEmu has done a FANTASTIC job porting this over to the touch-screen. There's plenty of options and the relative touch controls are P E R F E C T. You can also play with a virtual joystick if that's what you'd like, and they included the option to move all the buttons around and resize them. It also has MFi support - so if a controller is more up your alley, you're set. You can also change the video settings so that the aspect ratio is 1:1 to the original. You can toggle the graphic filtering on and off and you can also add scan lines if that's your thing. They've also added an unlimited mode so that you can play all the way through to the end with an infinite amount of continues - as well as an Insane mode that you can unlock after beating the game on Normal. All of this to say - THIS PORT IS PERFECT! If you're an R-Type fan, there's no reason you shouldn't get this. If you're a shmup fan, there's no reason you shouldn't smash that BUY button. And if you're curious about one of the best shoot 'em ups of ALL TIME - you needn't worry about getting an inferior version - in fact, I choose to play this version rather than the PlayStation version I have sitting under my TV - it's THAT. GREAT. THANK YOU IREM AND DOTEMU!!!
iPhone X support needed
Game plY is how I remember it. However, the lack of X support has a huge issue. The left 1” if the screen is not used and therefore it’s easy for your finger to drift into that unrecognized part of the screen which means you’ve lost control. Please add support.
Love it 👍
What surprises me is that I've never heard of this game before. All I knew was Contra growing up this game is awesome.
