8 of 25Massive lag and no turbo fire on the IPhone XS Max. I guess the iPhone isn’t powerful enough to emulate the game. Rofl.
I love this game, but I think it would be totally awesome if it supported Apple TV. I would buy most of the Sega Forever games if the were on Apple TV.
It would great if the sound would work. Deleted , re installed , unplugged it and plugged it back in. Don’t @me if you can’t help me .
This game was a sucker launch game for the Genesis. You got excited cause the original arcade was great with a rock solid port on the Sega Master System. New system, new Space Harrier? Of course I'll buy it. All the bad controls and poor frame rate are part of the original not the port. How's about a remake? Or even a reboot?
This game was awesome, reminds me of the arcade game from back then! But since I had updated my phone the game started slowing down on iOS 11 compared to iOS 10 and this wasn’t the only game either affected by it. Giving it 5 stars because it’s a cool game and hope more retro titles (streets of rage, toejam and earl, etc.) comes to mobile.
Controls like poo
So happy to SEGA for keeping these games alive. Here's some other ones Revenge of Shinobi Road Rash Series Altered Beast Strider Vectorman Columns Comic Zone Streets of Rage Series Aladdin World of Illusion Budokan
Won't feel like playing your genesis or game gear. Avatar's movement isn't smooth - moves in discrete units almost like an old LCD handheld game. Music playback seems garbled, but I never played space harrier ii, so I don't know. Not as stylish as space harrier I. You'll be dissatisfied with the controls.
