To reproduce, walk forwards with the d-pad, and don't pick up your finger. With your finger still down, walk backwards. The d-pad still has the forward panel out, even though you are moving in different directions.
In the image below, I am walking backwards with the wrong d-pad display.

Yes, but the extra buttons are only supposed to appear when you're moving forward. Also affects iPad 3 iOS 6.1.
I've been calling the 360° movement analog control. This control scheme seems a bit weird to me too... the diagonal buttons appearing and disappearing seems distracting to me, and a bit misleading. It also seems odd to have the forward direction activate analog control, while pressing the other directions first acts as a d-pad. Why not have analog control all the time, no matter which direction you start off in, and drop the diagonal buttons? I think this would be more intuitive and less distracting.
I'm not sure whether this is actually a bug; it seems more like a potential improvement to an existing feature. Since there's really no way for us to know what the intended behavior is, I'll leave it here anyway.
It's circle moving ( I don't know how it's name ). You can move in 360* directions, when you start moving forward
