HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (1.9 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ Doesn't work well on iPhone 12, kinda sad cuz this is on of my childhood games but I guess oh well.
★★★★★ 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…
★★★★★ If you move your fingers to fast, the ship immediately starts at the front of the screen and you almost always die. I'm going to get a refund on this game

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

WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • Great to have such a wonderful game available for my iPhone, please make more developers I will keep buying 5★, Jul 7, 2019
  • I wish I could switch the buttons to the left side of the screen so I could use the right for movement and remove my thumb from near or on the ship to see projectiles better. 1★, Jun 19, 2014

Fun, addictive3%

10 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ 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.
★★★★★ Massive dead zones on either side of the display that could be used for touch navigation makes this game too hard because your finger blocks enemies
★★★★★ It's really hard but really fun.
Fast1%

3 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ No ads, great control, instant respawn.
★★★★★ Danke an die Entwickler !!!! Genauso schwer wie früher 😆! Einziger Minuspunkt - Die Musik ist leider nicht wie im originalen ersten Teil.. Trotzdem absolute Kaufempfehlung!
★★★★★ Without it, runs pretty smooth.
Great support1%

3 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ 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.
★★★★★ Just one request, please update it with Bluetooth controller support.

AWESOME 5++ stars

This ported version of R Type is just like the original cabinet! I did have to mess around a little bit with settings to get it to be as classic as possible with no auto fire and get the screen to be in the correct ratio plus get scan lines to work, but overall DotEmu did an excellent job with making a ported version of R Type!

★★★★★Feb 5, 2024
Laggy but good.

The gamepad support (PS4) is laggy. Death will collect you.

★★★★★Oct 22, 2023
Bugs on iPad

Great game however, it is buggy if you run it on an iPad. Your spaceship will randomly jump from the left side of the screen to the far right.

★★★★★Aug 12, 2023
Optische Bugs bei iPhone 12

Die Darstellung ist zu sehr in die Breite verzerrt (besser seitlich schwarze Ränder lassen).

★★★★★Oct 9, 2022
名作をお手軽に!

というコンセプトはピッタリです。 ゲームコントローラー対応もありがたい。 欲を言えば、オート連射が遅いので撃ち負けます。 パワーアップは引き継いだまま2面以降も遊べたらいいですね

★★★★★May 20, 2022
ショット関連以外は〇

自機の操作も、"もしR-TYPEがアナログスティックで操作だったら…"的な動き方だし、細かな操作が効いて新しい感覚でプレイ出来るのだけど… 連射速度が遅すぎる!せめて15連相当にして欲しい! 波動砲に謎のラグがある!「今だ!」って離してもラグで発射されずに失敗って事が多発する! 今からでも遅くない!修正求む!
