Release Date: 1989 Run... fly... dodge those obstacles, but return fire on wave after wave of attacking aliens. Armed with a really big gun, you have to defend yourself against the alien hordes using your wits to navigate around the screen. But watch out for those end of level bosses! Originating in the arcades in 1985, Space Harrier is a third-person rail shooter with pseudo-3D graphics, set in the same world as Fantasy Zone. The lone titular hero fights aliens with a fireball-launching cannon, which can also be used to transform the hero into a flying rocket. The protagonist is constantly in motion, but the speed of his movement can be regulated by the player. The game's 18 stages take place on different regions of the planet, as you travel across grass, desert, and other terrain while avoiding (or shooting) obstacles such as trees, pillars, and rocks. In 2003 Space Harrier VGL, a free fan-made remake was released by Roderick "HotrodX" Rivero of the Sega Megadrive/Genesis version plus elements from the original arcade game. | ||
