New: R-Type II

Classic arcade side-scrolling shoot-em-up R-Type II has just been released with full MFi controller support.

R-Type II (and its predecessor, which was recently updated for controller support) are true classics. Released in the 1980s, they set a very high watermark for what airplane shoot-em-ups should be, with advanced weapons, tons of power ups, giant bosses, beautiful graphics, and challenging level design.

This new port comes with all of the features you’d want out of a great iOS app. Smooth framerate, Game Center leaderboards and achievements, universal iPhone and iPad compatibility, and both Standard and Extended controller support.

For shoot em up fans, and for fans of classic arcade games, R-Type II is an easy recommendation.
