This game is hard to describe, not in a Toejam and Earl kinda way, just that it is odd and I like it despite not being able to come up with a tangible reason for liking it. Advertisements
Space Harrier was released in arcades in 1985, and while I was about 1 when this was released, I did play this a bit in the arcades in the early 90s, I don’t remember much about it so I thought I’d see if Space Harrier is fun…
