About Rendering Ranger: R² [Rewind]
Originally released in 1995 for the Super Famicom, Rendering Ranger: R² is a side-scrolling action title created by Manfred Trenz, the mastermind behind Turrican, The Great Giana Sisters, and Katakis (AKA Denaris).
Published by the renowned German software company Rainbow Arts, Rendering Ranger: R² is known for its combination of run-and-gun and shoot-'em-up gameplay and its impressive pre-rendered graphics in a time when the techniques and tools for creating them were not widely accessible. Initially intended for a Western release under the name Targa, it was ultimately distributed exclusively in Japan, with an estimated sale of only 10,000 copies. As a result, it has become one of the most coveted collectibles in retro gaming.
