JumpJet Rex Review

Great fun, great game.
Retro graphics and music.
Very polished game. Great controls (played with Gamepad), great Hub and attention to detail.
The game(play) itself is a fast paced "platformer", in which you navigate through levels using your skills.
Everything is in-the-air, without the need to ever touch the ground, so it is obviously not a "classical" platformer.
Controls consist of jumps, fast thrust up and down, a dash, and a spin. These skills have additional nuances to them, and are very responsive.
Fast respawns make time-hunting enjoyable.
Really, nothing to complain.
The only things I didn’t like:
* No dub, thus a little bit of text to read at the beginning - story wise. (obviously you can just skip the text.)
* One of the early levels you can choose the order/direction you finish the level - I did it just once and left. The other levels I always completed multiple times, to get 0 deaths, time and potential secrets.
Up to now I played about an hour, and finished a little bit more than the first section.
I can definitely recommend this game to anyone who can enjoy fast paced, skill based platforming.
It’s a blast.
