Pilot a space battle capsule through treacherous underground caves in this indie action remake celebrating the 30th anniversary of a classic 8-bit ZX Spectrum title. Rocket engines drive horizontal and upward movement, with realistic acceleration, inertia, and gravity at play-drop altitude by letting the ship fall, since no down control exists. Fuel powers every engine burst, and depletion spells instant death, while plasma cannons, bombs, and missiles clear paths past aliens and enemy machines guarding bases.
Master these old-school mechanics in a free-to-play challenge on PC that demands precision and patience. Enemies swarm to halt progress, forcing smart ammo use amid constant threats. This suits hardened players ready to face relentless difficulty and frequent restarts.
Jet-Story 2018 is 30th anniversary remake of 8-bit ZX Spectrum game. You are a pilot of a space battle capsule and your goal is to navigate underground caves and eliminate all alien bases.
Your ship has rocket engines for horizontal movements and for going up. Acceleration, intertia and gravity are dutifully simulated. There is no "down" control - if you need to go down, you have to let the ship fall. Activating motors requires fuel. Running out of fuel means death.
Underground caves are full of aliens and enemy machinery trying to block your progress and defend the bases. However, your spaceship has lethal firepower - plasma cannon, bombs and missiles will easily anihilate any opposition - IF you master how to use them.
WARNING: This is old-school game with old-school difficulty. Do not even try unless you are ready to die a lot.
