R.TYPE

This was one of my favorite games when I was growing up and I am totally addicted to this new version. The only reason I’m giving it four stars and not five is that the touchscreen controls are buggy and frequently get jammed where you cannot move the spaceship, especially if you are touching two controls at the same time.

you guys should make it accessible and controllable via the bluetooth and connected to lighting porn joystick addon such as howliwo L1 Pro.

It’s R-Type… what’s not to like? The controls work pretty well. I was able to play through the first stage on the first try (as I usually can), and then the creepy things on the second stage got me (as they usually do). So feels like R-Type to me 😉

Doesn’t work well on iPhone 12, kinda sad cuz this is on of my childhood games but I guess oh well.

Controls are pointless on iPhone 12 Pro Max. They cover the screen. Should be a free game…

Controls are completely out of whack. The buttons are all over the screen. Just awful and really disappointed this was one my favorite games growing up.

The app is very buggy

First off, there are actually checkpoints. Old R Type games didn't have checkpoints, and depending on the version, the only way to continue was with a password, if you could at all. In this version, when you beat a level, it saves for good. This is more necessary since it's mobile, but it easily makes it my favorite way to play R Type now days. Still a really hard game though, and it easily takes me an hour of trial and error to beat each level, but I want to keep trying because I'm having so much fun. It also has controller support, and that is how I usually play it, and the touch icons go away with the first button you press on the controller. At such a low price, I recommend it to fans of the genre that want a great shoot em up on the go.

I was super excited to play this. Just purchased it. As I’m playing, not even 30 seconds into the game, the little spaceship teleports from the left side of the screen to the far right side of the screen, crashing into the enemies. Probably should fix that.

Controls are broken. Doesn’t support entire screen. Can’t move controls off to the side and they cover the game so you can’t see. Also, the buttons are too large! Please fix!
