Game Details

1 or 2-player co-op - fly jetpack/weapon-wielding heroes around scrolling landscape. Blast tons of monsters and big bosses in a variety of themed worlds (Orient, Egypt, futuristic, etc.) Controlled by joystick and rotary knob - shoot one way, fly the other. Excellent graphics for the time. Pick up zenny (money) to buy armor and super weapons at shops.

(Dan Wasson spent a lot of time as a 12-year old to win this one. His email address is dwasson@ea.com and he wants mail if you know anything about this game or where he can find one.)

This trick only works when you're going the correct speed (usually your third or fourth jump), and only once (as far as I can tell) per ramp session per level. ----------- Afterburner ----------- (Contributor: Anthony D.
