Jet Car Stunts from TrueAxis

Jet Car Stunts [App Store]

Aussie game developer TrueAxis come blasting out of the podium with Jet Car Stunts. Best described as an over the top, adrenaline rush of 3d racing.

Part platformer, part insanity, the tracks you race on (36 in total and growing we hope) are all linked from start to finish with ridiculous ramps, mid air hoops and platforms, oh did I mention the spiral speedways?

Graphically, the game is superb and you can only say that it is vertigo inducing. The gameplay ties into the visuals and is simply magnificent. You really do get a sense of speed. The track layouts kept us guessing what they are gonna throw at us next, how big is the next jump, where do you want me to land the car, etc.

The simple concept of the game is a no brainer – supercharged rocket car meets stunt track! Get to other side in one piece. It’s an easy concept to digest and leaves enough room for the hardcore crowd to master. Control wise it’s also a fun experience, tilt to go left or right, virtual buttons for brakes and nitrous. The drift factor round every possible bend reminds me of yesteryear Mario Kart precision. Put this whole package together and I think we have a winner!

This game has enough nos left to give us 2 modes – platforming and time trial. With Platform, you must finish a level from point A to B (not as easy at it sounds). Time trial, as its name suggests sees you playing on the same levels with time restraints. OpenFeint support for added achievement goodness.

This will easily go a mile! 4.5 stars.
