Impressive port
This is a really impressive port of a colorful arcade shmup. Compared to the *similar* Gradius on the NES this is a technical masterpiece. There are some frustrations due to flicker (a common problem in the days of 8bit gaming) but I'm blown away at how good it is.
For those new to R-Type:
It is a slow moving horizontal shoot em up, NOT a danmaku bullet hell type game. Strategy and memorization are more important than twitch movements. What makes R-Type different from similar shmups is the Force ball that sits on the front or back of your ship, it can be used to absorb shots and can be detached from the R9. There are a couple of different power ups and learning the levels will help you to decide which laser type to stick with and which ones to pass up.
Many say that this is one of the harder shmups to learn but I've been enjoying it and find it very approachable.
