![]() It was designed outside the company in a building named 'Studio 128', due to Sega adopting a flextime schedule to allow for games to be worked outside company headquarters. Suzuki was inspired by the 1986 films Top Gun and Laputa: Castle in the Sky he originally planned for the game to have a steampunk aesthetic similar to Laputa, but instead went with a Top Gun look to make the game approachable for worldwide audiences. Development began in December 1986, shortly after the completion of Out Run, and was kept as a closely guarded secret within the company. ![]() The cabinet simulates an aircraft cockpit, with flight stick controls, a chair with seatbelt, and hydraulic motion technology that moves, tilts, rolls and rotates the cockpit in sync with the on-screen action.ĭesigned by Sega veteran Yu Suzuki and the Sega AM2 division, After Burner was intended as being Sega's first 'true blockbuster' video game. It is the fourth Sega game to use a hydraulic 'taikan' motion simulator arcade cabinet, one that is more elaborate than their earlier 'taikan' simulator games. It uses a third-person perspective, previously utilized by Sega's earlier games Space Harrier (1985) and Out Run (1986), and runs on the Sega X Board arcade system, which is capable of surface and sprite rotation. The player assumes control of an American F-14 Tomcat fighter jet, and must clear each of the game's eighteen unique stages by destroying incoming enemies, using both a machine gun and a limited supply of heat-seeking missiles. Īfter Burner is an arcade vehicular combat game developed and released by Sega in 1987. ![]() Yu Suzuki, Tokuhiko Uwabo, Satoshi Mifune. Unfortunately, this game is currently available only in this version. I need to find the posts where they mentioned the guy from bethesda working on EOS, perhaps that's what killed the game.If the game emulation is slow, try to speed it up by reloading this page without ads or choose another emulator from this table. That sounds like massive legal problems right there even if it had nothing to do with Bethesda If in fact a Bethesda dev did help out on Edge of Space, even a bit, any work they had done could be considered owned by Bethesda (Which I guess would explain the last news update in April 2016 saying they would explain what was going down and then silence, most likely getting hushed by lawyers, and the rather vauge Facebook reply back in February 2017 saying that "A lot has happened since release" and they are taking their time on "How best to talk about it"/"Looking into getting the info out") Even if that dev no longer worked for Bethesda, you never really "stop" working for them apparently. Bethesda and the parent company ZeniMax are SUPER protective of the legality of their employees working on secondary projects and other companies. Wait some dev from Bethesda helped out? That's a nose dive right into legal problems right there. before, people were just whinning about slow work, after that we whine but with good reason ![]() It's almost like the guy who "saved" the game was also the one to cause all this controversy. before that the team was spot-on in communication, however lots of mysterious things happened around that time that we might never get an answer to. we hardly heard from the bethesda dev who worked in the game near final release, was a background kinda guy. They most certainly bit more than they could chew.
