Old
School Game
The game R-Type II is a spacecraft shooting game with its
unique features of gameplay. The player controls a ship that is able to charge
shots and gather power-ups to enhance weaponry. The ship is called R-9C, which
is an enhanced version of its predecessor R-9. In my experience of playing this
game, I’ve noticed the difficulty of reaching the next level. It’s a simple
game, but you must maneuver the ship well or you will end up starting over.
Whenever the ship touch an object or the enemy, it will consider as a death.
Although, I didn’t make it too far into the game, I noticed that the further
you progress, the harder the game gets. That includes, the amount of enemies
that is being faced and their retaliation with their beams fire. The enemies
can come from any direction, so you must be aware of your surroundings.
Playing this game through an emulator is comparable to
playing it on its original hardware, but the experience is different. An
emulator uses arrows and keys, while the original hardware consist of a
joystick and buttons. Playing on the original hardware can be more fun, because
you get to experience being a child again. Playing this game through an
emulator doesn’t give the same impression of playing in its original hardware.
