Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Great mix of fast paced sections and slow careful platforming. Very creative and fun levels. Our favorite game that Ive played.
The game is worthwhile and interesting, we would add touch controls because playing in the harder game modes is very imprecise and inaccurate due to the gyroscopic controls, this complicates things and makes playing this game less appealing.
We used to play this game all the time as a kid and restarted countless times just to get the gold medals for each level again. We recently started playing it again, but the screen is all out of whack. The game is still playable, but instead of tilting your phone left to turn left and right to turn right, the game is stuck tilting one way, and the only way to turn is to tilt your phone forwards (away from you). Its just very awkward to play because of it and seems like a simple fix. Its kind of like an inverted tilt but in a weird way. Now tilting left will make your car face up and tilting right will make your car face down. Very weird and would appreciate a fix.
If you have a mobile game that came out 11 years ago and we can sit down and remember the game for how cool and interesting the mechanics are you got a great game.
We used to play this game for hours with our older brother but our favorite part was watching our older brother because he looked so cool the way he maneuvered around obstacles. We were torn when the game stoped working and was found ourselves bored a lot. We could not keep a game for more than two months before getting bored. Thank you so much for fixing the game! It is a lot of fun.
Ive had this game for a long time and its still our favorite.
We played this game when the iPod 4 touch came out and its one of our favorites. Im disappointed that we paid for this and now we cant hear anything. That game outputs no sound which is not nice.
Would definitely ask for a refund its not that good of a game and would be our first choice of a game to buy its design is amazing but then game play its self is horrible.
We spent countless hours playing this masterpiece of a game on our iPod touch as a kid. It makes us incredibly happy that the game is still playable on modern devices over a decade later. There is one issue that we think should be fixed if this game gets another update in the future: on the iPhone 11, the controls buttons are way too big, so big that when using the vertical control layout, the thrust and accelerator buttons overlap with the pause and restart buttons in the upper corners. The UI just needs to be scaled down a bit to make this game work perfectly on newer iPhones.
We love this game, the physics are amazing. Hands down the best gyroscopic steering of any driving app we have ever played. The buttons for throttle, brake, etc., are well laid out so you arent fumbling around like with many other driving games. The way you control the car when it is in the air is pure genius. We have probably download over a thousand apps and this one of our top ten favorites.
Its a single player game but its so fun ur like driving on tracks really high in the sky in the clouds and doing jumps and using ur jets.
We remember back when this game had just came out, how Id compete for the fastest lap times and how the fastest drivers would find the most amazing shortcuts on the track. We spend hours upon hours replicating some of them and even managed to hit second fastest time on a course. Sadly, with the death of OpenFeint, you can no longer do that. Still, a lot of fun can be had, highly recommended.
This is the only review we have ever written on the App Store, and it will likely stay that way as this is so special we thought that we must share. We remember downloading this app as one of the first when we bought our brand new 3rd Gen iPod Touch and falling in love immediately and playing the game through (although those impossible levels gave us a lot of trouble). We then purchased an iPad 2 (the original) and later downloaded again to that and playing through with the same enjoyment as that first time. It became a tradition, with every new iOS device we purchased we would immediately put JetCar Stunts on and play through, each time loving it. That was the case, until we upgraded from the iPhone 4s to the iPhone 6. We can be very particular and the black bars on the edges of the screen made the game unplayable. Now, with this new update, we are able to play JetCar Stunts in glorious fullscreen. We have fallen in love all over again. We cannot wait to play through this game again for the 4th(5th?) time now, with the same enjoyment we had all those years ago. Thank you TrueAxis, for updating your masterpiece allowing us to play it without going insane from the edges. Easy 5 stars.
Thanks so much for updating our favorite game. This was the first paid game we got with our iPod so many many years ago and now we can re-visit it. This is such an amazing game plus an added bonus the level pack is free! Definitely recommend this it's so addicting.
We hadn't touched this game since maybe 2009 or 2010, never really dug into the sequel, but picked it up again with the 64-bit update and, we have to say, it hasn't aged a day. If anything it looks even better now than it did back then because it set a bar for gameplay and presentation that the App Store has only rarely approached in the last several years. Honestly we're sort of amazed this game even exists, much less for two measly dollars. As soon as we conquer impossible it's on to part two we guess.
We love this game and we grew up on this game. We never will stop playing.
We were failed to achieve golds many times we want creator to add track layout (map) to see where next land we need to go.
We remember playing this many years ago , but now it has an uneven tilting calibration and a inverse steering that really isnt fun !! Please fix this !!! Because we dont know how to get our 2 dollars back.
Back when it was still being updated, the game was amazing. Its not compatible with newer phones (at least 2018+ models) and should be either updated or removed as theyre now just taking money for an unplayable game.
This is one of our favorite video games of all time. We even wrote about it and recommended it on our blog. However, the tilt control switches the camera making it impossible to play on the iPhone XR. Please fix.
Shame such a great iconic game on older platforms of iOS has now since been abounded. When downloaded gyro lock is stuck and titled to the left making operating the car impossible…. Just sad.
Bought this game for we think 3 dollars and it is nearly unplayable on an xs max, this should be stated somewhere.
The tilt controls are completely broken on iPhone XS Max.
No iPhone X screen support yet? Come on devs! Ask Apple how to do it or hire some developer that can do the job! For gaming sake! Thanks from Brazil.
We started with the tutorial and got through all of those lvls except one which wouldn't work. Then we gave up trying and went on to the other lvls in which our turning wouldn't work. We did the tilt calibration which also didn't work. So we deleted and re downloaded the game and still no luck. We want a refund if this is not fixed.
Simple tilt controls, and enough level variety to keep things interesting. Game runs smoothly on 9.7-inch iPad Pro and iPhone 7 Plus.
As of new update, app crashes immediately upon opening. IOS 10.1.1 – iPhone 7 Please fix, it was working before this update that added 64 bit resolution support.
By far the best iPhone game we have ever played. We saw that there is a second one out and had to get it. So, we just wanted to thank you guys for making a great game and we're excited to try the next one.
Way better than the free version.
Add more levels to this game and forget the second one. This is a masterpiece of a game.
That is what the game is called.
This was our favorite game in elementary! Please update it for the new phones.
Love this game. So many awesome fun levels. Had to buy level pack Becauss the first was jusgnot enough t.
Needs Game Center support and a new level pack since we beat all the levels.
Amazing but make a new game with a motorcycle.
If you're a fan of the original game this is 20 times as awesome. New variety of vehicles and tracks are amazing.
The graphics are absolutely amazing and so is the simulation!!! It's soo realistic its crazy!!! This game is a lot like the similar game called Areox except a car strapped with a super jet and maps filled with all kind of jumps we highly recremend buying this game also a suggestion to the makers if you added a multiplayer mode you could really kick this game into gear with online races and even arena battles with big domes and missiles and machine guns attached to the cars.
This is honestly the only game you need on your iOS device. Its amazing! Really fun levels, amazing replayability, the works. If only it could have iPhone 5 support. But its still an amazing game.
Best game ever, we started playing it on our iphone 4 with iOS 7 and it works great while other games lag and are very slow.
Add more levels!!!!! Best game on our phone for years been waiting on levels forever please update.
We love this game it was the second game that we got on our iPod touch and it is super amazing but we just wish it could use Game Center instead of open feint.
Overall we like this game it is so worth it but we wish they put multiplayer in the next update but is this game is awesome.
From the main menu tap the top left, bottom right, top right, and bottom left corners of the screen in that order.
Amazing game we would love it so much if you made a level editor awsome game thanks.
This game is amazing although we wish they could update for iPhone 5.
Great game. Tight controls and graphics.
This game is awesome we luv it! This game would be even better though if they made an area that was not timed like a course but is designed just to mess around and stuff. Maybe like a stadium or something along those lines. Anyway awesome game.
One of the best racing games we have ever played and awesome controls and courses.
This is the best game we have ever seen on the App Store.
Incredible app with amazing graphics and tough levels.
