That is fascinating. I'd always wondered why Space Harrier's world was so goddamn weird and psychedelic, and reading that they consciously based it on Roger Dean makes so much sense. For reference:

Same here. I've boggled over this game forever, and I hadn't known they directly drew inspiration from Roger Dean.

I also always suspected that the furry dragon from the bonus stages was inspired by the luck dragon Neverending Story, but I'd never seen it directly confirmed until now. Neat.
