This is classic..and the first significant laser game to 1983's Dragon's Lair...i was a teen when this came out..and this was a huge deal back then...a large crowd, always, surrounded the machine, when someone was playing..50 cents to play...expensive back then..
I used to own this arcade around 1985, The lazer disc player messed up & I ended up selling it for $50. That was way before the internet came out & you could find replacement parts.
I used to play this game!!! I got passed the first two levels the first time I played it. As much as I like Dragon's Lair, Space Ace was alot more fun and little bit easier IMO.
I remember playing this original l and the feeling it gave off was so cool for 9 year old. Good ol classic games... the just get better and better....
Imagine my disappointment when I found out that Dexter WASN'T voiced by Eddie Deezen (I always thought he was, but it turns out it was animator Will Finn).
No freakin' way! I can't believe I just saw this! I would beat this game on the hardest level & wait until the last possible minute 2 energize. Brings back memories. I beat Dragon's Lair part 1 but not part 2 though. There were other games like this. Cliffhanger was 1 of them. Sheeit! I gotta look that up in here!
THIS GAME ROCKS im gunna make a daphne arcade with a windows 98 and now im currently programming a game with the same gameplay with gamemaker (im using clips from the tv show Storm Hawks) and if im not too lazy i might animate my own cartoon and then make a game out of it
Yeah! I remember they had this at the skate rink when I was a kid! It looked coll, but it was impossible to play!!! The drawings were nice but the game sucked ass!!!
Agreed. The Don Bluth-made arcade games were very hard to control, but man were they cool to look at. Personally, I think it's better to just buy the DVDs with these games on them. Something truly great about these games is not only are they a thrill for hardcore gamers, but they're fun to watch because of their amazing visuals and the fact that they pretty much play more like movies than actual games.
My machine! Neat! I bought it after that show. It's been converted back into a Dragon's Lair (well the conversion will be complete once I get a new LDV1000 for it)
How old are you? You're probably too young to remember, but this game was a huge success in the mid 80's. Lord, I could cry I miss my childhood so much.
I was able to finally get all the way thru this thing after investing 50.00 in quarters back in 1988!...;)
Made a sequel game myself (one playable level, before Bluth halted the project)...you can see it here on YouTube, just search for 'Space Ace- Kimberlys Quest'...
Ah nostalgia, to be a teenager again, sigh. I completed this on hard level, it took alot of coins. I remember the skating being difficult. As with dragons lair it helped if you watched how it was done. This was a cut above dragons lair, some imaginative gaming and the response was slick.
WOW. Would love to see more of this and from the source. I used to secretly bag my lunch so I could spend my cafeteria money on this thing. Got through it a few times. What a flashback!!!
I Also Have These Game On My Mame. Also Play Station 1 And Nitendo NES N64 Atri2600 And Others. This IS A Lazer Disc Game. There Is Also 3 Others That Work.
*sigh* brings back memories - never finished it. any ideas where you can get hold of the full footage of that game (and dragons lair) was excellent to watch!
I love when he spits all over the monitor "I'll SAVE YOU KIMMY!"

It wasn't Eddie Deezen the Steven Spielberg look-a-like turned Scientologist? Damn! Sounds just like him though.

I agree with you.
I remember seeing dragons lair in cleethorpes ... and dang! it was amazing.
However, nowadays this would be classed as an interactive DVD menu.
Still... I love the games!

I think it was called "time traveler." There is a home DVD version you can buy. I got it, it's okay, but haven't passed it, too hard.

jrusso7660 4 years ago
Sorry, I'm 16, and I never said it sucked. I just said it was strange to me. It was like playing an old cartoon.
Deven247 4 years ago
Deven247,
Well, keep in mind, the game came out in the 80's, so yeah it is like playing an "old" cartoon because 80's cartoons would be old to you.
No problem, you have to play it to understand how cool of a game it was.
jrusso7660 4 years ago 3
I know. It was pretty addictive. I don't know how they did it. I mean, you control a cartoon! That is pretty cool!
