The only double hi-res game I'm aware of is Airheart by Dan
(Choplifter) Gorlin. I'm sure there must be others. Airheart both
looks great and plays well (although I think it sometimes suffers from
slowdown when there are too many enemies and shots on the screen.) I
think double hi-res really came along too late for the Apple IIe/c.
Companies had moved on to the IIgs/ST/Amiga/PC/Mac. Or maybe I just
didn't become aware of it soon enough.
