Soon you will see this game in many app stores. The release is expected slightly earlier than planned. Playback on mobile has already been verified and supports MFI. 21 levels divided into 35 sublevels. 35 bosses and more than 100 minor enemies. Non-linear layout with route selection. The downside is that the game is a bit slow. It seems a bit difficult, but it is worth the challenge. psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,971 722 113 England #3 psj3809, May 16, 2018 Pre ordered this.

But the game is short. You can see the ending in about two hours. If there is not enough budget, it is better to try steredenn first. But if you like shmup games, do not miss this game.

Somewhere in a town amidst the Amazon jungle. http://www.google.com #8 sebgo, May 16, 2018 Whoa, thanks for that info! I think "about 2 hours" is actually a lot for a shmup, at least more than I've spent on beating or almost beating other games of the genre. A single run through U.N. Squadron takes about 30~40 minutes with some levels (total of 10) lasting less than 2 minutes, I think. Steredenn is a looping game, but the main stages require about the same time, so getting a 2 hours game seems pretty good for me. Gwarmaxx Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2010 4,446 376 83 NCC 1701 #9 Gwarmaxx, May 16, 2018 yeah i agree, and if you want it to last more, still can play it every time from the start, like in the old golden days psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,971 722 113 England #10 psj3809, May 16, 2018 People complete R Type in about 30 or 40 mins. 2 hours for a shoot em up is fine as I know itll take me way longer than 2 hours to complete it !

yeah i agree, and if you want it to last more, still can play it every time from the start, like in the old golden days
