Jetboard Joust

Classic arcade-style shoot ’em up meets modern hardcore roguelike! Take off on a deadly, souped-up jetboard, soar through the skies, and obliterate alien invaders with an explosive arsenal of extreme weapons. Face off against massive, multi-stage bosses while protecting innocent civilians from being abducted and turned into mutants. An arcade classic for the next generation! Jetboard Joust combines the spirit and intensity of 1980s SMHUPs with the replayability and tactical elements of modern hardcore roguelikes. Don’t expect a story. Instead, expect fast-paced, fluid, high-octane 60-fps action, heavy firepower, and explosions! The Jetboard: Jump off your jetboard like a boss to gain temporary invincibility and smash your enemies to pieces. Destroy pretty much everything that stands in your way. You rock. The Enemies: Over fifty different enemies to outsmart. Be prepared for them to come at you with every weapon in the game, as well as their own special attacks. Also keep an eye out for a few homages to classic arcade games of the past... The Weapons: From conventional to absurd! Jetboard Joust offers over thirty powerful weapons, each with its own advantages and upgrade options to help you on your mission and leave a trail of total destruction. Get up close and deal massive damage with the shotgun, wreak havoc with the cluster bomb, roast enemies to a crisp with the fire tornado, or force them into submission with the lightning bolt. Each playthrough gives you a different selection of weapons, and you’ll have to master them all! The Bosses: Defeat massive bosses in a series of grueling multi-stage battles, then turn their attacks to your advantage. These bosses, rendered in exquisite pixel art detail, will test your weapon mastery and evasion skills to the limit. The Planets: Choose your own path through a variety of battlefields on the surfaces of five different planets. Discover hidden treasures, upgrades, and fantastic new weapons. Tailor your route to your playstyle, the weapons you’ve unlocked, and the treasures you’ve found. Loot money from defeated enemies and use it to upgrade your jetboard and jet suit and max out your weapons to build an impressive arsenal. Are you up to the challenge?
