R-Type for Android now on sale

Developer DotEmu has released its Android conversion of the Irem game today, bringing the forever young 2D shooting legend to most Android phones. It supports OpenFeint social features, so you can let everyone know how good you are at it.

You will need Android 2.1 running on a phone with a 480×320 resolution display or higher – plus it features a custom control scheme for Xperia PLAY users. Here it is. We’re so excited we’re going to upload four screen shots rather than the usual two:

android r-type release 1

android r-type release 2

android r-type release 3

android r-type release 4

R-Type on Android will cost you the equivalent of $2.99 and is on the Android Market here.

  1. Anyone know if this will install to SD?

  2. Depressingly even apps2sd doesnt move the whole thing and a portion of the app still remains on the phone. Thats why I had to remove a lot of games on my Desire due to lack of space :(

  3. Well I won’t be getting it then, as I don’t even have 17mb to spare. At least I already have it on Wiiware…

    Thanks for the info Matt!

    A bit late, but just to update Shrinkwrapped, this does allow apps2sd and it goes from 16.44Mb to 0.89Mb
