[Android games]R-Type

The 80s are back with a bang. Space battles to the sweet and nostalgic sound of synthesizers
take you back to your childhood back when R-Type was truly a gaming icon. This time around
the classic game is joining the ranks of the world’s most respected Android apps. While I’m sure anyone old enough to remember
arcade halls understand just how awesome this game really is, R-Type may not be as well known to
the younger crowd.

The game is a classic arcade-style shooter i.e. one where you’ve got to have your finger glued to
the trigger. You’re aim is to fight against the (obviously) very evil Bydo empire and come out of
it alive. As you whizz through space at breakneck speeds, you have to blow up incoming enemies
while picking up power-ups, upgrading your weapons and collecting other useful boosts.

It may all sound extremely simple, but the actual game is extremely challenging and requires quite
a lot of agility and skill. After all, it’s not easy to keep a cool head when you’ve got enemies flying
and shooting at you from all over the place. One hit is enough to down your spaceship and you’ve
got a total of 5 lives to live through before it’s game over time.

It’s thrilling, it’s addictive – in short, R-Type  is everything a classic space shooter should be. The awesome retro
graphics and sound effects recreate an atmosphere that is best described as 8-bit heaven.
