Ah yes, the wonderful Space Ace. Look, you either love these laser disc games or you don't. They are what they are - a memory and agility test. You push up, down, left, right or fire in accordance with the on screen prompt (a flash) and if your timing is right, the cartoon progresses. Simple as that. For me, I associate this game with the summer of 1985, when me and my mates, all around the 14 or 15 year old mark, would get the train to Barry Island on the coast of Wales on a Saturday morning and just spend hours in the wonderful arcades they had there at the time. Games like Space Ace, Dragon's Lair, Out Run, Space Harrier, Double Dragon and others will always be cherished and have a special place in my heart.
[h2] A Challenging Sci-fi Adventure from the Mind of Don Bluth [/h2] After playing [i]Dragon’s Lair[/i], I thought I’d look at and play another game from filmmaker and animator Don Bluth. While that game was set in a medieval fantasy setting, this game, Space Ace, takes on the sci-fi genre, where we play as the dashing hero, Dexter, who prefers to be called “Ace.” His mission? Stop the villainous Commander Borf from using his Infanto Ray on Earth and save your sidekick Kimberly. Overall, the gameplay is very similar to that of [i] Dragon’s Lair [/i](limited number of lives, quick-time events, using arrow keys or pressing a weapon button, etc.); however, there are a few differences. Firstly, the game features three individual difficulty levels: Cadet (Easy), Captain (Normal), and Ace (Hard). The game also has multiple paths players can take by “energizing” to go on the offensive, attacking enemies instead of running away or staying in his adolescent form as Dexter. It makes the game more interesting, adding challenges for you to overcome. Furthermore, I loved the interactive film aspect, which was similar to the previous one. Let me just say this was a very challenging game compared to the previous one I played. While I did enjoy this title, the learning curve on this was much more significant, and it took longer for me to memorize the events that occurred. I did find myself getting more frustrated with this, which led to me not having too much fun. I was hoping I would have a lot more fun with this, but I couldn’t. It is not a bad game by any means, but it is challenging. However, I do recommend you check this out yourself! Especially if you enjoy old arcade games. [h1] 3 out of 5 ★★★☆☆! [/h1]
This would get the thumbs up... If only there was support for an arcade stick.
Juego clásico y super disfrutable aún a día de hoy, muy interesante la mecánica de energizarse o no hacerlo y como a veces es mejor una u otra, como en el resto de la trilogía he leído críticas de problemas en los inputs pero desde luego que yo no he tenido ninguno, he completado el juego al 100% y siempre que he muerto era fallo mío por pulsar tarde o demasiado pronto, pese a que tenia inputs muy difíciles sobre todo para el logro de no energizarse. Mi única crítica negativa sería que haya que hacer downgrade la versión para sacar 4 logros ojala lo arreglen en un futuro parche, pero como hablamos de steam y hacer un downgrade es tan fácil como mirar en las propias guías del juego y seguir 2 pasos no veo motivo suficiente como para no hacerlo.
animtion 👍
"Космический Ас"(а кое-кто перевёл как "Космический дозор") стал проще, чем "Логово дракона 2", есть чекпоинты внутри уровней, то есть по сложности вернулся к первому "Логову дракона". К тому же убрали идиотский сбор сокровищ, без которых дальше нельзя было пройти. Так же остались бесконечные "продолжить". В общем, игра запросто проходится даже на уровне сложности "Ас" за 10-12 минут. А на Ютубе можно посмотреть эту игру и "Логово дракона" с переводом на русский, тк игры у нас официально локализовались.
Fun FMV game.
Space Ace es una aventura interactiva perteneciente a la saga "Dragon's Lair" aunque sigue una historia completamente paralela a los demás títulos de dicha saga. La historia sigue el mismo hilo que sus hermanos. Eres un cadete espacial guiado por una comandante que acaba siendo secuestrada por un pirata espacial. Será tu misión rescatarla adentrándote en los confines del universo y haciendo uso de algún que otro as bajo la manga. El gameplay es simplemente idéntico a "Dragon's Lair". Lo dicho, la dinámica funciona de igual manera. Tienes una ventana muy pequeña en la que presionar los comandos que se te piden (arriba, abajo, derecha, izquierda o ataque) o de lo contrario nuestro protagonista sufrirá una humillante derrota. Nada nuevo pero no por ello malo pues se trata de un gameplay simple pero efectivo en este tipo de juegos que anteriormente vivieron en las arcade. El soundtrack es bastante simple. La banda sonora en este título al igual que en el primero se relega a un segundo o incluso a un tercer plano. Si bien es cierto que cuentas con efectos de sonido bastante caricaturescos, no tiene nada que valga la pena reseñar en este aspecto. Los logros son de dificultad muy fácil. Incluso los que se supone que te piden pasarte el título sin guías audiovisuales para los Quick Time Events, se hace bastante sencillo pues el título es corto y con tener la suficiente memoria, se consigue en un par de intentos como mucho. En conclusión, ¿Lo recomendaría? Pues lo cierto es que sí. Space Ace es un título que únicamente he jugado debido a que ya me he jugado previamente "Dragon's Lair" y "Dragon's Lar 2: Time Wrap" y no podía dejar este a un lado aunque su ambientación espacial no me llamara especialmente a la atención. Desde que vi la introducción, supe que iba a ser más de lo mismo aunque eso no tenía por que ser un punto negativo pues juegos de arcade de este tipo a los que les dedicas un par de horas y de camino consigues todos sus logros no están del todo mal. En mi caso, me entretuvo aunque nada fuera de lo normal. Si te ha gustado "Dragon's Lair" y "Dragon's Lair 2: Time Wrap" recomiendo jugar a este título.
Game should be embarrassed that it runs like garbage on many low to mid range systems when it's JUST SHOWING A FREAKING VIDEO AND WAITING FOR QUICK TIME EVENT INPUTS. Game itself was a spectacle back in the arcade but really, it's just a QTE-heavy video so nothing much to see here. Watching a playthrough is about the same experience. If you do have this, look up how to get the old version of the game and play it instead because it will run on basically any system. I know, what a concept. Oh, and if you do have a system capable of playing this: the moves are horribly off and glitchy and do not work half the time. What a mess. GET THE ORIGINAL, PLAY IT WITH DAPHNE.
Sweet version of the original cabinet game!
