R-TYPE II for Positive User Reviews

Don't flinchThis could use a speed option to dial it up or down 120%-70%..Version: 1.0.1

Fun GameGreat game with fantastic gameplay. It's a shame that's it's too short, like 30 minutes. The bosses are fun and exciting. Overall, DotEmu did a great port..Version: 1.0.2

<3A serious flashback from my younger days, this is an amazing game once you get used to the finger movement! Thanks for this!.Version: 1.0.1

Like when I was a kid...The original arcade game came out when I was a kid. Love this!.Version: 1.0.1

Same nostalgia here!!My cousins and I played A LOT of hours of this game. Map one is spot on..Version: 1.0.1

Just good ol' fashion fun! 😀Remember buying this and playing it when it first came out. Still as good as it was then as it is now..Version: 1.0.3

RetrotasticLove this classic, nicely converted..Version: 1.0.1

Best appThis is the best £1.49 I've ever spent loved this game on my old console and love the app :-).Version: 1.0.1

Good but there's a flaw...Needs to stay awake when using a MFI controller..Version: 1.0.3

Excellent follow-up!A great continuation after so many years!.Version: 1.0.1

Great Game!Miss games like this! Definitely worth the money!.Version: 1.0.1

Takes me back...To my youth, just how I remember it. Awesome!!.Version: 1.0.3

Great game, even if you didn't play the old SNES oneIt's properly adapted to the touch-screen platform, and it's a great, challenging adventure to play. It's really fun, go buy it.Version: 1.0.1

Awesome game...Fun game highly recommend it!!.Version: 1.0.1

GoodLove the game and i used to play it all the time but now for some weird reason my ship cant be killed and i beat the whole game in 20 minutes... Can that be taken off?.Version: 1.0.2

Awesome!!!Rtype the original shoot'em up! Great conversion, only missing the joystick!!!.Version: 1.0.1

Holy flashback!!!I can't believe this is available on my iPhone. I loved playing this when I was in my twenties. Now I'm just living in amnesia land trying to remember how I conquered this back in the day!!! Thank you..Version: 1.0.3

Please Fix ItR-Type Final 2 got released and you haven't given us an update on fixing the controls. They are all over the place completely unplayable..Version: 1.2.0

Subtracting 1 starDon't ask me to rate with a modal view. That's lazy. Make a cute little button or something..Version: 1.0.1

ExcellentGreat controls, great graphics, simply awesome, if your an R Type fan this is a no brainer. 10 out of 10.Version: 1.0.1

A true shmup classic, but there is a better sequel!I enjoyed playing this years ago, Still a challenge.I hope that the developers can bring the amazing R Type LEO to ios. That is a proper 5 star game and I will get that without hesitation!.Version: 1.0.3

No tunnel intro, but...The rest of the game is as good as I remember it. Take some time to fiddle with the virtual dpad size and position (the finger drag setup seems too inaccurate) and it's a great conversion!.Version: 1.0.1

Great emulation!They made this game so well for touch on the ipad. Should be my next time waster and addiction!.Version: 1.0.1

Rtype 2Mint, used to play this on ps1 then ps2, app works well and is a great game.Version: 1.0.1

PerfectionAn absolutely perfect port of one of the best games of all time..Version: 1.0.3

CoolBetter than original. If they make a third one then I would buy that as well..Version: 1.0.3

Nostalgia!Playing this game brings back great memories! Feels great. If you never played it... I think it's still worth a try! Love this game..Version: 1.0.1

Fun NostalgiaNice to see the port. The controls need a little fine tuning, but otherwise it's the same great game it's always been. Unfortunately, it's still as challenging as it's always been, and having your fingers blocking your view doesn't exactly help..Version: 1.0.1

Excellent retro shooterPlease make sure you keep updated for latest iOS developers, thank you.Version: 1.2.0

Surprisingly good portI don't have faith in touch controls for old classics but this surprised me. It's not perfect and it's not exactly the same but it is enough that I'm having a lot of fun reliving the game on the go! The controls would benefit from a sensitivity setting. Otherwise, graphics are smooth, only minor slowdowns occasionally when lots of stuff is happening. You can set the graphics filter and interlaced modes on or off. Nicely done and well worth the .99c on the holiday special!.Version: 1.0.3

Excellent portEDIT II: The bug has been fixed! Great work :-) EDIT: The latest update has a huge bug in it that makes the game unplayable. Please fix ASAP!! My original review text follows: I have not yet tried this using a 3rd party controller but I am very pleased it supports them. The native controls come in two flavours. The D-pad based one is, personally speaking, unworkable. But the other (where you slide your finger across the screen to position the ship) is actually very good. It's not as precise as Cave's Deathsmiles -- or, to be more accurate, it feels like it needs to be a tad more sensitive to match up to the tight manoeuvring required by this game. Graphically and aurally, this port is spot on. This is a fun but extremely challenging game..Version: 1.0.3

I just shouted swear words10/10 just like I remember it.Version: 1.0.3

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..Version: 1.0.3

Awesome.Been waiting for this for ages! Love it! More games like this please!.Version: 1.0.1

Woooo HooooooClassic game!! Should bring more out like tigerheli, wonder boy or green beret! Bring back the classics!!!!!.Version: 1.0.1

RtypeGreat game my dad told me to get it and for once he was right !!!!! Good old dad.Version: 1.0.1

WowNow this has brought back many memories. The battle against the end of level baddies will help me raise my iQ and eQ!.Version: 1.0.1

Great gameSame as original, easy to play as well, takes a few goes to get used to playing it on the phone but that's all.Version: 1.0.3

Great!True to te original, though sometimes difficult to control. Great port!.Version: 1.0.1

Stunning port!Amazing perfect port of a true classic! Teaches hand eye coordination as my son who thought it would be easy is finding out now! A fantastic trip down memory lane..Version: 1.0.1

I'm invincible!Nifty arcade shooter brought to iOS. Controls work great. Only thing is the latest update seemed to make the R-Type ship invincible. Oopsie..Version: 1.0.2

Please update this to 64 bit!Please update this to 64 bit!.Version: 1.0.3

Large Controls in the way of screen!GreatOn iPhone X the controls are not disappearing or smaller out of the way on the screen. They are pixelated and in the middle of the screen so you can’t what’s going on. This is obviously a big. Please sort it out.I missed the configuration screen which allowed the controls to be zoomed out and movable..Version: 1.2.0

Arcade DreamsThis was my favorite game in my local arcade at college. I played it all the time. Now I can play it on my phone and remember those sweaty evenings, feverishly pounding on the Fire button, thinking how foolish it was that I wasn't working on my paper that was due in twelve hours..Version: 1.0.3

Great game!I loved R-type growing up. I was never really that good, but it was still always fun. I'm glad you guys made this friendly with the Moga ace controller. It works really well with it. It's one of the reasons I bought rtype 2 even though I already had the first one from you guys. My only complaint is that the game doesn't disable auto lock. After a minute my phone goes to sleep since I haven't touched the physical screen. I can just disable auto lock manually, but its a bit of a pain to remember..Version: 1.0.3

Retro gaming at its bestI grew up playing games like the one in question. There for perhaps I'm slightly biased, but I'm having a lot of fun with this app. It's true that the touch controls aren't ideal, but they are serviceable. Other wise I really can't complain..Version: 1.0.3

Oldie but goodieIt makes me recall when I was ten years old on my golden birthday getting a SNES! At the time the greatest present a kid could get, in my opinion!! A very simple yet fun game that has brought back awesome memories from when I was a youngin!.Version: 1.0.1

I love it but why you took off invincible modeThis game is an epic classic arcade game I'm not from the 80's but I had this game for SuperNES definitely worth the money but please turn on invincible mode!!!! It makes it a bit more fun.Version: 1.0.3

A great arcade game from my childhood!! Awesome!Great port of rtype 2 for iTunes! Also, the awesome intro for level 1 has been added back in, thanks! Now, there IS a bug with the newest update though. I'm invincible and can't be killed? Please fix that, make it a cheat option to turn off, or remove it completely. There's no challenge when I can't be defeated! Keep up the good work though, 5 stars!.Version: 1.0.2

Cheers!Great quality port and very nice with a Horipad on my TV. Keep up the good work and keep the classics coming!.Version: 1.0.3

Invincible mode!!So glad I haven't updated yet - I love invincible mode! All of the nostalgia without the frustration. Please bring it back in future versions!.Version: 1.0.3

R-TypeGreat game so far, R-Type 1 was ace so had to download this one. Would be rude not to !.Version: 1.0.1

80s type!This game is hands down one of my favourites now. It reminds me of old shoot em up games from when I was little. One request? Pleeeease add more levels! Great game overall..Version: 1.0.1

Brilliant game!Superbly addictive game, well recreated. Brings back memories of playing this on a friends Amiga!!.Version: 1.0.1

Almost as good as the original........Can you include better control options. D-Pad or sensitivity options would be great additions..Version: 1.0.3

Great Game!This is a very fun game with solid graphics. I recommend this game to anyone that likes a fair challenge. If I had one complaint, it would be that I get lag spikes sometimes. ( thus is not very common).Version: 1.0.1

Good PortGood port of the original game. Takes a bit to get used to the controls..Version: 1.0.3

The good old days again!Just how I remember it back in the day. Have got R-Type 1 too and both are excellent examples of good irem shooters on iOS. How good would it be if we could get R-Type Leo, Dragon Breed and X-Multiply on iOS ??.Version: 1.0.1

Excellent portNow they've fixed the never-die bug, it's a great game- controls well, looks great, good stuff.Version: 1.0.3

:)Put lives because it's annoying to restart t'il the beginning. Also, it's a very great game.Version: 1.0.1

Rtype II is really good as ever.Wow for iPhone port, once again coming across with an old game, and oneof the best type yets!. Surport joystick mode exclusive for iPhones. I wish the same guys would also port r type delta, from the PS1. You can expect that would beat it..Version: 1.0.3

Rtype 11Awesome to be playing a retro game again!.Version: 1.0.3

Excellent classic !!!This game is great and so addictive. Bring back some good memory's,it was a great game back in the day and still a great game now! I had this game for my Amega 500 back in the day! Nice to see this game back. Well done !!.Version: 1.0.1

Always fun!R-Type Delta is my favorite game of all time. When I found this game in the App Store I had to get it. Awesome game and thank you..Version: 1.0.3

Love it!Excellent retro shooter, controls well on the iPhone, they should have more retro games on the app store. Love it.Version: 1.0.1

Absolutely brilliantRemember this from when I was a kid and it's just as good now. Sure I had R-Type 1 on the Master System!.Version: 1.0.1

Rtype2Just like playing original on Sega back in the past. Only without a joystick..Version: 1.0.3

Really fantasticDefinitely a great game & I really love the improved gameplay.Version: 1.0.1

Fantastic !Great game lovin it like I love my mcdonalds lol some thing strange happened though whilst I was playing I managed to become invincible lol anyone else have this happen ??.Version: 1.0.2

So glad to see this game againI thought it'd be another forgotten gem, but thankfully my favorite childhood game is back in my hands..Version: 1.0.1

Awesome gameA classic and plays just like the original as we'll!.Version: 1.0.1

Please add easy mode!Love this game when it was a quarter operated arcade game, and loved it on the PlayStation (R-Type Final). I'm able to almost finish the game on those platforms, but on the iPad Air, I can't even get pass stage2! The virtual D-pad is near impossible, while touch is near spot-on. However, it's almost impossible to dodge the hordes of bullets/missles when your finger/hand is blocking the screen/view! PLEASE add an easy mode option, when folks can pass easy mode, they can move on to normal and insane. Great job with the sounds/graphics. Please update graphics to be more like R-Type Final!.Version: 1.0.1

#TBTAwesome throwback! Controls can improve a bit but still amazing!.Version: 1.0.3

Brings back memoriesThis is the game Super R-Type that was released on the Super Nintendo way back when we were kids..Version: 1.0.3

Exactly what you would hope for.This is exactly like rtype on my Amiga. Brings back loads of memories. The controls are easy and work well..Version: 1.0.1

Good gameNew controls, same retro feeling! Amazing and nostalgic. Make r-type III and I will explode with joy. Get this game.Version: 1.0.1

R-Type 2It'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!!!.Version: 1.2.0

Just like the old daysGood fun, although I'm as bad at it now as I was then! But it brings back the memories of playing this and imagining a scene out of BSG. Nice work..Version: 1.0.1

ExcellentStunning game, perfect sequel. Relative touch control method is excellent..Version: 1.0.1

Great to have backControls are a little bit too tight....Version: 1.0.1

ClassicFrom music to gameplay it feels as old as school can be. High quality game for a low quality price. Higher difficulty that can be unlocked adds replay value!.Version: 1.0.1
