Very cool conversion that plays well and also offers good sound. However, a setup file where the controller and game's window resolution can be set and saved would be highly desirable in the future. Our German-language review can be found at 04:05:51. English subtitles are also available. 🙂
Jetpac Remake is great. One issue though is with the high scores. I got my name in first time but, even though I beat the high score the game doesn't let me put my name in the highscores again. Seems I can only have one entry in the hall of fame no matter how many games I play or how many times I get an high score.
This is fantastic! I was around when this game came out on the Speccy. Years (and years!) later, still a gamer, I have it installed on my Steam Deck. Excellent job, love the option to have the fuel pods explode if you fire at them.
Awesome remake. I appreciate the updated stuff but I like just playing it old style with the pixel perfect recreation of my teenage memories. It stands up remarkably well as a game too.
A very good remake of a great game. So many options to choose from!
I recommended the game to some friends. One reported that he can hear the music, but the screen just goes black. That happens with WINE. Is that a known issue?
I didn't change any settings, just on default, i have G3 Gen 3 device though.
If you use a Mali device or other Non Snapdragon device then change Compatibility Layer to a different version, say Wine 10.6-arm64x-2, instead of the default Proton 10.0-arm64x-2.
I have got to say, this is my favourite remake of yours, Richard - This is so playable, and also glad to report, works perfectly on Android, using Gamehub 5.3.5.

Great game! Thought I'd posted a video here, already.

Hey there, congrats on the remake - superb game. I took the liberty of uploading a gameplay video on my channel:
Cheers Jamie - that's an honour! I'm a regular viewer of your channel and a subscriber... never thought I'd feature on it!
No probs at all, hopefully you will get more recognition for those awesome remasters you do.
