Game Features

 

Colourful Stages

 

 

R-Type display 16 colours sprites and maps, converted from the arcade graphics. Move your R-9 spacecraft through improved stages with starfields, animated background, parallax scrollings and more.

Now fast and fully animated.

 

Vibrant Music and Effects

 

 

Choose from three audio modes for playing R-Type.

«music» for listening the hi-fi arcade soundtrack port, «effects» to enjoy the full 3 channels sound effects with external stereo speakers and «mixed» for a better experience. Last but not least, a «sound test» is waiting you... What else?

 

 

 

Arcade and Casual Modes

 

 

The original arcade spirit is back on this 128K version.

Choose how many «lives» and «continues» will be used to play. Each cleared stage displays its score at end to follow your progress. R-Type support 2 fire buttons for a true arcade experience. (alternative keyboard layouts for all CPC)

 

A special mode is available for casual gamers. Learn «how to play», select the start «stage», chose to «keep» weapons and «rebirth» where you die. Tips will help you to defeat boss aliens.

 

CAT’Rank

 

 

Without running the game, you can check the ranking from the BASIC by typing CAT or |DIR. The 10 best scores are saved to the floppy disk, so your name will remain in the universe forever.
