Game Introduction

A Neo-Geo clone of the R-Type series (one and two) with much improved graphics and sound.

Game Play

The player must guide their spacecraft across horizontally scrolling cityscapes and wastelands, disposing of hordes of enemy spacecraft (some metallic, some organic) including huge mid- and end-level guardians. Power-up pods provide the craft with a moveable drone which can be charged up and fired or locked into position and used as an extra gun or 'battering ram'/shield.
