Now you can experience Don Bluth’s classic arcade game Space Ace, the follow up to the revolutionary Dragon’s Lair, in stunning HD! In Space Ace you play the heroic Ace who must stop the evil Commander Borf from taking over the Earth! Borf plans to reduce all of humankind to infants and take over the planet. Only two people have the courage and strength to stop Borf and save Earth: the beautiful Kimberly and the heroic Ace. But as they approach Borf’s stronghold, Ace is hit by the Infanto Ray, changing him into a child, and Kimberly is kidnapped by the evil madman. Armed with only a laser gun, Ace must find and destroy the Infanto Ray, rescue Kimberly and save the Earth. The fate of Earth is in your hands! This release of Don Bluth’s legendary animated arcade game features video transferred directly from the high definition film master, delivering the sharpest images and most vibrant colors ever – far better than the original laserdisc release. Simply press on the direction pad to guide Ace in the right direction or fire your laser gun and blast those aliens away. Don Bluth and his production teams are the creative genius behind such beloved classics as The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail and Anastasia to name but a few. Pick up Space Ace HD today and show your friends how great your iPad can look!

Plays Terrible Don’t Buy

Ever since this latest update, they’ve removed key things. The ability to change the control size and switch from left to right. Also if you set the controls to no hints the movement displays disappear and you can’t play. The classic arcade screen is extremely terrible and unnecessary. I’ve had these on my iPad for over 3 years and loved them but since the update I’ve deleted all of them. If I could get a refund I would but instead I’d warn everyone don’t get it till they fix these issues.

One can’t even get past the first challenge, even if one has been able to get pretty far on Dragon’s Layer (from the same developer / publisher). Yeah, I know I’m old and don’t have the reflexes that I did can when these games were in their original laserdisc form in the arcades, but I’m also old enough to know when an app is totally buggy and in a way that can be discerned within just a couple minutes or two of initial gameplay. Bummer.

iPad 2 worked beautifully until the recent update. No controls, screen shrunk, no sound sometimes. Why don't they fix it. It worked to well before. Dragons Lair is the same crap too since the update. Don't buy game is broken

This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included. Space Ace has been updated to ensure continued iOS compatibility. We've also updated the UI and fixed up some pesky bugs. Happy Retro Gaming!
