Buggy controls in iOS 13.1 ...please fix

Silicon Valley Tiger

Touchscreen controls buggy...in both non-full screen and full screen where the spaceship jumps unexpectedly to the far right of the screen often during gameplay (first round), unplayable. Problem doesn’t appear in RType II, only RType. Please fix so I can update my rating I love the game. Thanks


broken under IOS 13

Wastlander

great game, very hard. Game is not formatted for the newer iphones with the notch so it does not make full use of the screen. The game does not work properly under ios13. the touch screen buttons on the right side are now huge and cover a third of the screen. I have discovered however that this can be fixed in the setting section by resizing them. Also, since the screen does not make full use of the screen, touching the far left side of the screen will now warp you to the far right of the screen which usually results in immediate death. This bug is almost a game breaker when using the touch controls. I find it to be highly annoying and frustrating, especially when I’ve almost beat a level and accidently slide my finger to far to the left off the viewable portion of the screen the game, which happens all the time! Please please fix this. i thought it was bad when the sides of the screen were just dead zones but now it is instant death.


iOS13 not supported

DIXON, IL

Use to be the greatest all time game until the iOS updated to 13 . Now the ship now instantly jumps to the far right side when you touching the far left side of screen accidentally. Please fix?


Completely unplayable on iPhone 11 Pro Max

Toptekjon

Letterboxed badly on all 4 sides, the controls are all jumbled together on one side, and the ship stays on only the right 20% of the screen. Completely unplayable. $2 wasted.


Classic game, horrible controls

Josefote

I keep getting stuck in the front without any input, and when I try to go back it goes back to the front. This makes it nearly unplayable.


So Sad

Disasterpeices_

Needs update bad.Controls and button layouts are completely broken


Fun but limited

cgbeige

Massive dead zones on either side of the display that could be used for touch navigation makes this game too hard because your finger blocks enemies

Has to be one of the hardest shoot em ups. The rapid fire helps on here. The virtual d pad kind of takes up too much real estate. But this is a great arcade port. Even with a arcade stick the game is still a challenge.


R-Type Review

The Subway Kid

This is fantastic the graphics the music amazing, scan lines that’s a neat feature makes it look like it’s playing on classic CRT monitor. The controls are a little tough but I’m getting the hang of it already. None the less Arcade Perfect on the go!
