'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (アフターバーナー・コンプリート), also known as '''''After Burner II Complete''''' or simply '''''After Burner''''', is an enhanced [[Sega 32X]] port of ''[[After Burner II]]'', released in 1995 by [[Rutubo Games]] and Sega.
 +
 
 +
==Gameplay==
 +
{{ScreenThumb|After Burner 32X, Reload Weapons.png|width=200|In-flight reloading}}
 +
The game is a rail shooter where the player pilots a [[wikipedia:Grumman F-14 Tomcat|F-14 Tomcat]] jet fighter (called the "SSF-14" in the US instruction manual). The jet flies itself on set paths through the stages, and the player controls its position on screen and its weapons. The vertical controls are inverted to simulate a flight stick, climbing with {{down}} and descending with {{up}} (though this can be changed in the options). It banks with {{left}} or {{right}}. The jet is equipped with two Vulcan cannons, which have unlimited ammunition, and heat-seeking missiles, which are limited in supply. There is an "Auto Vulcan" option that automatically fires the Vulcan cannons continuously. A reticle appears in front of the jet, which is used to aim the Vulcan cannons; additionally, enemies caught in the reticle are "locked-on" and targeted if the player fires a guided missile. Missiles are limited; the player starts with 50 (with a large missile icon representing 10 missiles), which are replenished in-flight or by landing on an allied air strip in between certain stages.
 +
 
 +
Using a standard control pad, the jet fires its Vulcan guns with {{A}} or {{C}} (unless "Auto Vulcan" is enabled) and fires its missiles with {{B}}. It slows down by holding {{A}} and speeds up by holding {{C}}. Using a [[Six Button Control Pad (Mega Drive)|Six Button Control Pad]], the jet can roll by holding {{A}} while turning with {{left}} or {{right}}. It also rolls by changing direction quickly when turning. The jet automatically rolls when turning if it is being pursued by an enemy fighter to evade its fire. It fires its Vulcan guns with {{C}} (unless "Auto Vulcan" is enabled) and fires its missiles with {{B}}. It can change its speed to low by holding {{X}}, to middle by holding {{Y}}, or to high by holding {{Z}} (with the jet engaging its afterburners at the highest speed).
 +
 
 +
The jet crashes if it takes enemy fire. The stage continues with a spare jet if the player has one (the player can choose to start with 3, 4, 5, or 6 in the options). The player earns an extra jet at 3,000,000 and 10,000,000 points and every 10,000,000 points after that. There are several selectable difficulty levels (Extra Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard, and Hardest).
 +
 
 +
===Stages===
 +
The game can be continued from stages 5, 9, 13, and 19 once reached, through a new option that appears on the title screen.
 +
 
 +
Stages 5 and 13 are allied air bases where the plane replenishes its missiles.
 +
 
 +
Stages 8 and 17 are bonus stages where the player destroys enemy bases for bonus points.

{{stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (アフターバーナー・コンプリート), known simply as '''''After Burner''''' in North America is an enhanced [[Sega 32X]] port of ''[[After Burner II]]'', released in 1995 by [[Rutubo Games]] and [[Sega]]. During most of its development it was known as '''''Super After Burner'''''.
 
  
−
''After Burner Complete'' is extremely similar to the arcade release of ''After Burner II'', with minor tweaks to make it more suited to a home console environment, and an options screen allowing for adjustments in difficulty and control schemes. It was the most accurate home version of ''After Burner'' at the time of release (bettered the following year by ''[[Sega Ages After Burner II]]'' on the [[Sega Saturn]]).

==History==
 +
During most of its development it was known as '''''Super After Burner'''''.
  
 
Similar to the 32X version of ''[[Space Harrier]]'', ''After Burner Complete'' saw mixed reviews from the press, being seen as a simple port of an ageing arcade game which offered few improvements over the [[Sega Mega Drive]] version of ''After Burner II'' (released back in 1990).

==Versions==

You pilot a fictional airplane called the SSF-14 fighter, using {{up}} to descend and {{down}} to climb it, like in a real fighter plane (although that can be changed in the options under "UP/DOWN"). Playing with a three-button controller {{A}} and {{C}} fire the vulcan guns, which have infinite ammunition; {{B}} is used for missiles, which are limited to 50 at start but get replenished at certain points of the game. Six-button controllers are also supported, with which {{A}} rolls, {{B}} still shoot missiles, {{C}} and {{mode}} fire the vulcan guns, {{X}} sets the speed to low, {{Y}} speed middle and {{Z}} speed high.

''After Burner Complete'' is extremely similar to the arcade release of ''After Burner II'', with minor tweaks to make it more suited to a home console environment, and an options screen allowing for adjustments in difficulty and control schemes. But features slightly lower resolution sprites in places and runs at half the frame rate (30FPS vs. 60FPS).

There are 23 stages in all and upon reaching stages 5, 9, 13 and 19, allows you to continue the game from the respective stage, through a new option at the title screen.

Gameplay

After Burner 32X, Reload Weapons.png

In-flight reloading

The game is a rail shooter where the player pilots a F-14 Tomcat jet fighter (called the "SSF-14" in the US instruction manual). The jet flies itself on set paths through the stages, and the player controls its position on screen and its weapons. The vertical controls are inverted to simulate a flight stick, climbing with Down and descending with Up (though this can be changed in the options). It banks with Left or Right. The jet is equipped with two Vulcan cannons, which have unlimited ammunition, and heat-seeking missiles, which are limited in supply. There is an "Auto Vulcan" option that automatically fires the Vulcan cannons continuously. A reticle appears in front of the jet, which is used to aim the Vulcan cannons; additionally, enemies caught in the reticle are "locked-on" and targeted if the player fires a guided missile. Missiles are limited; the player starts with 50 (with a large missile icon representing 10 missiles), which are replenished in-flight or by landing on an allied air strip in between certain stages.

Using a standard control pad, the jet fires its Vulcan guns with A or C (unless "Auto Vulcan" is enabled) and fires its missiles with B. It slows down by holding A and speeds up by holding C. Using a Six Button Control Pad, the jet can roll by holding A while turning with Left or Right. It also rolls by changing direction quickly when turning. The jet automatically rolls when turning if it is being pursued by an enemy fighter to evade its fire. It fires its Vulcan guns with C (unless "Auto Vulcan" is enabled) and fires its missiles with B. It can change its speed to low by holding X, to middle by holding Y, or to high by holding Z (with the jet engaging its afterburners at the highest speed).

The jet crashes if it takes enemy fire. The stage continues with a spare jet if the player has one (the player can choose to start with 3, 4, 5, or 6 in the options). The player earns an extra jet at 3,000,000 and 10,000,000 points and every 10,000,000 points after that. There are several selectable difficulty levels (Extra Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard, and Hardest).

Stages

The game can be continued from stages 5, 9, 13, and 19 once reached, through a new option that appears on the title screen.

History

During most of its development it was known as Super After Burner.

Similar to the 32X version of Space Harrier, After Burner Complete saw mixed reviews from the press, being seen as a simple port of an ageing arcade game which offered few improvements over the Sega Mega Drive version of After Burner II (released back in 1990).

Versions

After Burner Complete is extremely similar to the arcade release of After Burner II, with minor tweaks to make it more suited to a home console environment, and an options screen allowing for adjustments in difficulty and control schemes. But features slightly lower resolution sprites in places and runs at half the frame rate (30FPS vs. 60FPS).

It was the most accurate home version of After Burner at the time of release (bettered the following year by Sega Ages After Burner II on the Sega Saturn).
