Jet Car Stunts iPhone Game Review
18th January , 2010
With fuel prices the way they are, it seems as though every boyhood
dream of one day driving a rocket powered car are forever dashed.
Fortunately, Melbourne-based developer True Axis is revving its
engine, ready to fulfil that promise of high-powered, high-octane,
super-sonic racing in Jet Car Stunts.
The name of this hot new iPhone game isn’t at all cryptic. You’re
put behind the wheel of a Formula 1 car with one unique addition –
a rocket for an exhaust pipe. Not that your car is at all shiftless
without an afterburner in the boot. The driving mechanics –
controlled expertly using the accelerometer and on-screen buttons –
are as slick and responsive as any driving game to race out onto
the App Store, with all the power-sliding, smashes and
over-steering any lead foot could want.
The tracks, however, are very unique – and are a major part of Jet
Car Stunts appeal. Situated miles above the ground, these
devilishly imaginative rollercoaster-esque tracks convey a genuine
sense of dangerous vertigo, especially when making a gap requires
just the right combination of jet boost and air brakes to make it
to the next perilous corner.
And although the 3D visuals have been kept deliberately untextured,
they still communicate the game’s abundance of style. The iPhone 3G
throws the polygons around the screen with ease, too, making Jet
Car Stunts a genuine, exhilarating thrill ride that the competition
will struggle to overtake for a long time to come.
Just be careful of spoonerisms when saying the name Jet Car Stunts…
