Developed by Manfred Trenz (creator of the Turrican series) and published by German software powerhouse Rainbow Arts®, this game was originally released in 1995. Originally slated to come to the West as Targa, the game ultimately ended up as a Japan-only title, with only 10,000 copies printed, making it one of the most sought-after collectibles in retro gaming.
You are the Rendering Ranger known as Double R, a special forces soldier who must defend the Earth from a devastating alien invasion. Through nine levels of action platforming as well as blisteringly fast horizontal shooter stages, Rendering Ranger: R2 is one of the greatest technological showcases ever seen in the 16-bit era!
FEATURES:
• Faithful emulation of Rendering Ranger: R² and its unreleased PAL version Targa with rewind and save features
• Gut-wrenching side-scrolling action with sprawling stage design and cinematic presentation
• Mind-blowingly fast horizontal shooting stages unlike any seen before on the hardware of its day
• Upgradable weapons, tons of enemies, dynamic on-scene mayhem at nearly every turn
• Gigantic bosses in sprites converted from pre-rendered 3D models
• Timeless 16-bit action at its best from legendary game creator Manfred Trenz
