I'm wodering how can Space Ace and the princess breathe in outer space when they are, indeed, human. How can they breathe without oxygen tanks? Hmmmm!!
I used to have this on 3.5" floppy believe it or not. It came on a stack of disks and was horribly compressed. I loved it tho. Then I was really glad when I got it on cd-rom for Windows95...lol.
Not only the animation, but the music is awesome too. A beautiful send-up/tribute to the sci-fi shows of the 50s, unapologetically epic and fantasical. I only need to hear the opening trumpets of Ace's theme and I get all nostalgic.
Man, I miss the Don Bluth animation style. Very beautiful. I never played this game, but, I would always watch this part of the game at the arcade. Maybe, there's still hope if the game still exists in someone's arcade somewhere.
have always loved this game! there is also a brand new game on the app store from Don Bluth - my review is on youtube here also - search "animators of space ace and dragons lair release new game" Its called Banjo the woodpile cat :)
ah, i wish i was around when these first came out, they were the true gaming experience nowadays they are all really just about graphics and realism, i really appreciate games like these and more people should know about them.
They could put all these on one blue ray if they really wanted... I own Dragon's Lair 1 for Blue Ray, and believe it or not there is no substitute for the good ol' fashioned laser disc. The Blu-Ray freezes and glitches way too often, and the game options do not work at all. I want to get Dragon's Lair 2 someday to experience playing that classic at home, but if it suffers the same hiccups it may not be worth the money.
Don Bluth now has his own YouTube channel ! He has some great content including beta projects that never happened. Can you catch the stuff that did carry on into Dragon's Lair Time Warp!
If I was dreaming, this would make perfect sense. But, unfortunately, I'm not. He tells the guy shooting at him to hold his fire. He says he's been hit before he actually gets hit. Borf says the same line twice. Then theres the infanto ray...
I'd love the music as a ringtone.
