I need everyones help...

I've just published my latest game, but unfortunatly it was one of three I wrote last year ~(May-July time) but never got around to stickking on the web.

I went through the title yesterday evening, and I think Ive sorted out all the bugs, but I was wondering if you could take a look to see how it runs (it may not even load up in the first place)..

I thought I would see how well this one worked before I finished off the other two?

(Its a Java game so you'll need the VM in your browser)

Any help would be amazing!... Cheers!

Seriously, they are your work? Top notch. They play virtually identically to the originals.

Are you working for a developer?

It's slightly jumpy in places. (Such as the rocket taking off.)

And level 2 is too hard, I keep dying.

It's good, but to say "I've just published my latest game" is a bit naughty, isn't it?

Maybe "I've just published my latest port/conversion" would be a little more realistic.

Anyway, I had JetPac back in the 80's on my VIC-20, and I still say it's one of the most addictive games ever created.

A good conversion, nonetheless. Now, if you can get the VIC-20 sound effects... I might consider it a masterpiece! :-)

I don't write games.

I'm not knocking the guy, just saying it's not really his game. And I did say he'd done a good job.

If I said "I've just finished my latest masterpiece" and provided you with a link to an MP3 of me playing Beethoven's 5th, that wouldn't be my masterpiece, would it?
