Build your rocket and refuel it while holding off the alien nasties that want to take a bite out of you. JetPac for the 1990’s :)

Instructions

Another Spectrum remake – JetPac
This was my first attempt at a PC game. Used this basically as a testbed for new graphics routines. In those days this game ran soo quick even on a 286 (gosh remember those!)

A bit dated now – and now playing it seems the collision routines are a bit close.

How to play

Use the cursor keys to move the man

TAB key to fire

Use left, right and Up to thrust.

The aim of the game is to build your spaceship by collecting the various pieces and dropping them in order on top of each other.

Once built, fuel will then be dropped to the planets surface. Collect these and drop them onto the now built spaceship.

When the spaceship flashes just move the jetman into the ship. It will then lift from the planets surface.

    The download link for this game seems to be broken – any chance of sending me a working link for it?

    Thanks for all your efforts by the way, these games are cracking!
