R-Type - Turbo Grafx 16 Game

Finally picked this up and the sprite work holds up better than I remembered. The Bydo levels get brutal fast, but that's exactly what I wanted from a shooter.

The R-Type port holds up surprisingly well on the TurboGrafx-16. The Bydo stages still feel tense and the sprite work is sharp for the hardware—genuinely glad I grabbed this one.

The Bydo levels still hold up after all these years, and the sprite work on the huge bosses looks great for a TurboGrafx-16 title. The force pod mechanic is what keeps me coming back — positioning it never gets old.
