Ratings and reviews

*EDIT: Switch Full Screen to Off solves the problem.* Excellent port of the greatest side scroller ever. It is only let down by having your ship or an enemy's fire obscured by your own thumb. Dare I suggest an option to limit the screen size in order to have control space along one edge. Failing that I'll have to find an add on joystick because this game is too good to waste.

This my favourite eve game I've only ever got to the last boss and never finished it but will do as I'll never give up! This is a excellent conversion. But you should be able to put the picture in the middle and the controls at either side because I've noticed IV been killed alot by stray bullets because my thumb obscures the screen (picture means bit that is just the game and graphics how it use to be. Pls fix this fault I would have gave 4.5 stars but I only does 4-5 and my fav gets 5

Amazing arcade game, awful mobile controls. I love playing the original R-Type game, but the controls of this mobile port are awful. The buttons are too small even if you max out its 'zoom' setting. Not sure if this is an issue specific to the Samsung Galaxy S7 or all Android phones in general, since I'm not playing this game on a tablet.
