The Story
Space Ace introduced a mechanic Dragon's Lair didn't have: Borf's Infanto Ray transforms hero Ace between his adult self and his teenage alter ego Dexter, changing which moves are available. Produced simultaneously with Dragon's Lair using the same animation team and LaserDisc production pipeline, Space Ace pushed the technology further — more animation, more branching paths, more cartoon per quarter.
