Comments about R-TYPE Android Version

Really enjoyed R-Type in the 80's the controls as mentioned obscure part of the screen and you get killed by enemies from behind. My biggest complaint is that when I drift back it places me at the front of the screen. Seems to be a glitch. There was no wrap around in the original game and is super annoying in this version. The graphics and sound identical to the original game. I still enjoy, but could be better.
Ok so basically this is our R type from the 80s! The controls are ok if slightly slow to respond and all the gameplay is there so it brings back fond memories ! The only issue is the game seems to be sped up a bit it's a lot quicker than what I remember and therefore it comes across as somewhat Glitchy and buggy as well as this the sound in terms of the music is not very good it sounds too tinny and no where near as good as the original arcade game . Also the graphics are not as good as they should be and appear a bit Glitchy and slightly lack frames of animation nowhere near as good as the arcade original and for a Samsung 8 + phone that's ridiculous! Still worth getting if you're a fan of the arcade game a decent conversion
I love r type and this version is not bad. I do wish there was some in-between with the controls. It gives you either an oversized d pad which is horrible as you'd expect, or a much better touch control scheme where the ship follows your finger motion. The second option seems more viable, but it actually changes the gameplay since it gives your ship infinite speed. Why they did this I don't know, it makes it weird and hacky to play since I'm used to the movement speed of the ship.
