- Space Ace is a laserdisc video game produced by Don Bluth Studios, Cinematronics and Advanced Microcomputer Systems (later renamed RDI Video Systems). It was unveiled in October 1983, just four months after the Dragon's Lair game, then released in Spring 1984, and like its predecessor featured film-quality animation played back from a laserdisc.
The gameplay is also similar, requiring the player to move the joystick or press the fire button at key moments in the animated sequences to govern the hero's actions. However, the game's action was more varied with the player occasionally given the temporary option to either have the character he is controlling transform back into his adult form, or remain as a boy with different styles of challenges.

This must've been amazing back in 83. Still looks smooth today.
It was
The animation is short smooth but some of these cuts are unbearable. I can give a pass to the ones that are happening when you are in control but ones like the beginning where Kimmy is kidnapped its so fast and awkward it's like. What even happened?
Space Ace was near impossible to play back then.
It sure looked amazing till you played it & died losing your 50 cents in 10 seconds
Wow, I had this sudden flashback this morning and remembered this game. I had the CD-i console and this was one of the games I had. This game was insanely difficult as a youth. Seeing these scenes again years later brings so much vivid nostalgia from those years. Definitely missing my childhood now.
God, those games were hard. I never saw anyone get very far. At a buck per play, it was tough to practice.
Hydroculator Luckily my arcade had it at 50 cents a game with 4 lives. Waaaay back in 1983-84!
Classics never die.
I'd like to see a new video game that uses the Space Ace world and characters.
Love that pounding Drumulator throughout! Peace.
In the arcade game I saw a guy energize into space ace in the space ship after he shoots the green spheres. Thats where the sequence in the beginning where he's talk to kimmy
They shouldnt have made this game & Dragons Lair 2 so fast paced! You can barely tell whats going on & you miss all that beautiful art!
Only laserdisc game I ever mastered. Great fun to play.
Remember this game on Commodore Amiga 500...came on 6 or 7 discs, and after massive loading and disc swapping the game started off out of nowhere, I dont recall any yellow indicators on that version
Best part when I played in 83 was the cycle scene

I just noticed something: The spaceship in this game sounds exactly like the Drej fighters in Titan AE.
The Flaine Don Bluth produced and animated both films.
The laser blast sounds like phasers and torpedoes from star trek
Which, in turn, came from “The War of the Worlds” and were used as stock effects ever since. Peace.
@@MuzikJunky How these sounds were made?
The iphone version I'm playing now is really easy, on the easy and medium difficulty level. Let's see what it's like on the hard level.
Wooooooo
My god his voice sounds like Eugene, the guy from Grease lol 😂 i'm not sure if it's him lol
Though the voice sounds similar, Ace/Dexter is voiced by animator Will Finn. Eugene in 'Grease' was played by Eddie Deezen, who later voiced Snipes in Don Bluth's 'Rock-a-Doodle' and Mandark in 'Dexter's Laboratory'. When I first watched a playthrough of this, I thought Ace was voiced by Deezen as well.
The quality of this video is excellent.
This actually came from a laserdisc, no tweaking?
this is what the real game looks like, but on an actual arcade unit it has a CRT screen so its a tiny bit fuzzier
@@BillehBobJoe You are incorrect. This is from the modern HD release, not direct from the laserdisc. The laserdisc version was originally in 4:3 aspect ratio (to match the crt monitors), this release has been cropped down to 16:9, so there is some detail missing from the top and bottom of the screen.
wow
I really want the in-game music track!
We got it!
@@blenderbachcgi What do you mean? I've been looking for the music for this game for a while.
@@buiscuitmajor445 Unfortunately, I tried sending the link, but it blocks it.
The video is on RUclips. It's called "Space Ace - Music Theme" by RUclipsr "Kaku"
3:10 - 4:21 how do I get these parts on Daphne Emulator?
ok Daphne Emulator is not active anymore, hopefully this emulation problem gets fixed by Mame later on, but the current best way to play Space Ace is probably on Steam
