Reviews for "Jetpack Jerome"

Okay I guess.

For one thing, why does rain fuel a jetpack when if you get most electrical things wet they get all messed up.
Two, what on earth are these medals!? Why are they all secret I want to know how to get them :o
Three, there should be more powerups, there is only that rain thing and it's pretty boring going up and having to get rain.
Four. It's really difficult, I don't only use the jetpack (Steady bursts keep going up) because I noticed that's not how you get as high as possible, yet still I've only gotten the damp medal twice. I can't get any other ones, and I can't even get past 6500 feet or meter's or whatever the unit is high.
Seriously, make the game more interesting with more powerups and more twist and maybe, just maybe it'll be more successful!

It's a decent concept

I've played games like this before, this one isn't too good.
There's no skill to it, because the fuel falls so randomly and the character moves on the x axis really slow :(

A colorful game that quickly grows boring

On the first few plays, I had laughed so much at the colorful personality of Jerome that I didn't care how pitiful the game it was masking was. After you hear Jerome's repeated phrases though, the cover quickly wears off. When you take apart the voice acting, you are left with an incredibly bland platformer that is not original nor interesting. The rain, the fuel you need to survive, also comes in terrible patches. It will be thin sometimes, and you will be fighting for life, and then it will be abundant but it doesn't matter because you are already too low on fuel to survive. The rain comes in patterns and Jerome is too slow to make it to the rain drops as they fall. There is no gain to dropping after the rain drops to refuel your tank either, after about 5 seconds of falling you cannot regain control, and you are lost in free fall as Jerome spouts the lines that you've heard over what feels like a thousand times before. Also, the background noise covers Jerome's phrases and the only semi-appealing part to this game. This game is not fun or worthwhile to play over and over again due sheerly to the fact that the medals are all secrets and the game is bland.

My final conclusion: Don't play more than three times, lest you see through the thin veil to the unappealing offering of a game underneath. 4 stars for the one good thing in this game, and that in itself is generous.

wow...

A mediocre game made even worse by stereotypes...
