Thanks for sharing, what a great read. ZX R-Type was impressive, not only considering the limitations of the Spectrum but also the ridiculous conditions under which is was written. Respect!
The crown for best 8-bit port was claimed in 2012 by Easter Egg Software: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHH1V-zOlZk
I still think the Speccy version is the most impressive, all things considered.
