Jetstrike is a horizontally scrolling shooter published in 1994 with many aircraft and weapons to choose from. It was originally released for the Amiga, and also for the A1200 as an AGA version, then released again on the Amiga CD32.

Gameplay

Jetstrike is a side scrolling shooter, similar in feel to Defender (1981) and Wings of Fury (1987) with a wrap around screen and left-to-right-to-left turning across the landscape. Jetstrike includes 200 aircraft to choose from each with a slightly different feel and almost as many weapons with which to shoot down aircraft or blow up ground-based enemies.

Reception

The CD32 version was ranked the 28th best game of all time by Amiga Power in 1996.[1]
