We have covered Super Hang on, we have covered OutRun and of course, we have covered Space Harrier. But now, It’s time to look at After Burner. Arguably the hardest but most impressive sprite scaler game to come from Yu Suzuki’s awesome team at Studio 128

It’s games like After Burner and its sequel After Burner 2 that showcase exactly why SEGA was at the top of their game during the ’80s. Sure going to any arcade during these awesome years was always going to be fun… but add in any of the classic sit-down cabinets and you have an experience that will likely stay with you for the rest of your life!

After Burner isn’t easy, it’s punishing! and unlike Studio 128s previous games it had a bit of a rocky development. In this episode of The Complete History, we look at what the game almost became. we look at its TopGun inspiration and of course we look at its sequels too including After Burner 3, SKY Target, After Burner Climax, G-Loc and so, so much more.

If you plan on looking into the history of plenty of other Sprite scalers then I suggest you start here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7Jvl9x0Xlw&list=PLMC49V9zeXbEclLTNIdRi7bRaBrq5fp2m&index=14&ab_channel=Slope%27sGameRoom
