RE: R-Type (classic game) : back when shooters were king
I enjoyed reading this article. I think one of the really cool things about R-Type was that in spite of being a 2D game, its graphics added three-dimensionality to the game. This was achieved by using skeuomorphism, which gave the game's graphics an organic roundness that wasn't present in many games of that era.
