Still crashing well over a year without a fix?

Dezacrator

Is this the worst developer on ios? This is beyond unexceptable and should be handing out refunds.


Not impressed

You start the game trying to get into your ship after "energizing." I can't get to the ship before the game crashes. I'm on an iPad mini retina. I'm hoping the game devs see this and fix it.


GREAT GAME!!!

Not all that difficult but not a bad game. I really enjoy games like this. Play in 'Ace Mode' worth every penny!


AWESOME!

Ok ok ok... I have to catch my breath... I LOVE THIS GAME !!! This game is all about timing and for me memorization of sounds hehheh. I read other reviews that say there are parts missing.....let me tell you, as someone that shoveled buckets of quarters into Space Ace as well as Dragons Lair, THIS IS THE FULL GAME AND IT LOOKS SO GOOD! There are options at the beginning of the game (cadet,captain, and ace) they are not all the same game experience. ( that's all I'm saying so as not to ruin it) Also, once you get your groove on there is an option to turn on and off "move guide" that's admittedly harder than I thought. Trust me, if you loved it then, you will love it now. " get me outta heeeeear"


Finally done right!

I loved this game in the arcade, and this is the first version since that gives you all three difficulty levels to play since the original arcade game. I saw some people complaining that it's to easy to win and too short. The game comes set on the easiest level and the hints (move guide) are turned on. If you go into the settings and turn off the hints (move guide), then the arrow keys won't light up making it easy to play. Anyone can play with cheats and finish quickly. The challenge is to play at the Ace level with no hints and then tell me how long it takes to play! Great game, and one of the first where you are playing an actual animated cartoon. The game plays great on the new iOs8 system too! Don Bluth is still the master of hand-drawn animation!


This is it❗️??

Back in the 80's, there were several exceptional video games in the arcades; Dragon's Lair, Space Ace and Cliff Hanger. Those were my top favorite laserdisc video games. Of those three, Space Ace was the top game for being the only one that offers the player choices throughout the game. For example, you may be flying your ship and you see two different paths. Another example is when it's time to energize (if you pay attention to the on-screen visuals, you may notice another path flash brightly offering an alternative choice). Over the decades, I have owned several different versions of this game. This game; Space Ace HD for the iPad is the most accurate game of them all. It feels like I am finally playing the arcade authentic version of this classic. The controls are spot on accurate and I just love hearing the beeps (other versions altered the beep tones), but this is the authentic and most accurate version ever made! Be sure to set the lives to unlimited so you can relax and enjoy the pleasure of relearning how to master the correct moves and timing. One word of advice, just because you see an arrow flash does not mean you need to move in that particular direction! Experiment, experiment, experiment! On the final boss battle, I completely avoided energizing until I reached a point in the battle were energizing was no longer an option. Instead of a death scene, Dexter energized into Ace! Every scene from the arcade original is here! This is what you expect when you buy this game. If the reason you're reading this review is because you see a price tag, fear not; you get the real game! This was the first app I purchased for my brand new iPad Air 2 and I am highly satisfied with my choice. Recommended: Yes


Good game but crashes randomly

Ike323

without any sound

Downloaded for the iPad. The game works without any audio. Other content works with audio on the iPad. I even tried to reset my device without any luck.


Bad news

digital justice

I hate to tell you all, but since the iPad's last OS upgrade as of June 2015 it would seem that Space Ace HD no longer works on the current iPad setup. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it hasn't helped. And I have had no response from Digital Lesiure on fixing it. Save your money and don't bother.


Great Game ... But Crashes Now.

I like this game a lot ... But after the last IOS update it crashes and is unplayable.
