Jet Car Stunts

It's a promising idea, but this scrappy, uneven game doesn't work as either a racer or a platformer. Even at a penny under four pounds, it's hard to recommend.

  • Fun and addictive gameplay that combines elements of racing and platforming, reminiscent of Trackmania.
  • Great for nostalgia, especially for those who played the mobile version; offers a unique experience with jet-powered cars.
  • Challenging levels that provide a sense of accomplishment upon completion, making it rewarding for players who enjoy skill-based games.
  • Poor graphics and technical issues, including lack of resolution options and subpar performance on PC compared to expectations.
  • Controls can be frustrating, particularly with delayed steering and inconsistent input recognition, making gameplay difficult at times.
  • Limited content and features, such as the absence of multiplayer and a track editor, which detracts from long-term replayability.
  • gameplay
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is praised for its satisfying mechanics, particularly drifting and the use of rockets, which provide a rewarding experience without feeling overpowered. While the game is a mobile port with basic graphics, it offers addictive and fun driving mechanics across various modes, including collector, platforming, and time trial. However, some modes have fewer tracks, and the absence of multiplayer and editing features limits long-term engagement compared to other racing games.

    • “The mechanics are actually really decent, drifting is super satisfying and the rocket is just hard enough to use that it doesn't feel broken.”
    • “It's this simple game mechanic that makes it so addictive, mixed with the rewarding controls and physics.”
    • “While yes it's a mobile port, and yes its graphics are definitely improvable, the gameplay is fun and flows well for what it is.”
    • “This gameplay mode seems to be the least important of the three though since it has fewer tracks.”
    • “I'm reminded of F-Zero GX in terms of difficulty, and to some extent gameplay.”
    • “For example, Game Trials Evolution: Gold Edition has a functional editor and in-game sharing system which push the game to endless hours of gameplay for those who want it, while multiplayer is a problem that none of the PC players have ever managed to make work in the long term.”
  • graphics
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many users criticizing the lack of resolution options and the use of low-polygon, untextured assets that evoke a retro aesthetic reminiscent of early 1990s games. While some appreciate the new cartoon-y art style introduced in the overhaul, others feel that the visuals are basic and lack polish, detracting from the overall experience. Despite these graphical shortcomings, players generally find the gameplay enjoyable and engaging.

    • “The visuals get an overhaul too, now they have a sort of cartoon-y art style, which I like.”
    • “While yes it's a mobile port, and yes its graphics are definitely improvable, the gameplay is fun and flows well for what it is.”
    • “The graphics are basic but the gameplay is really cool.”
    • “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
    • “The lack of textures is a method that lazy developers often use to disguise their lack of talent or interest in doing the graphics properly, trying to pass it off as 'art' or 'we made it look bad on purpose', which really isn't something gamers should have to put up with.”
    • “The graphics leave a bit to be desired.”
  • music
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews highlight a significant absence of in-game music, which detracts from the overall experience, despite the presence of a soundtrack in the menu screens. Users express disappointment over the lack of audio during gameplay, suggesting that a more immersive soundtrack could enhance the game's atmosphere.

    • “The in-game music really enhances the overall experience.”
    • “The soundtrack is fantastic and adds a lot of depth to the gameplay.”
    • “I love the music in the menu screens; it sets a great tone for the game.”
    • “It is surprising how much can be taken away from an experience by a lack of soundtrack.”
    • “There is music in the menu screens, but for some reason none ever plays in-game.”
    • “In-game music?”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization of Jet Car Stunts has been criticized as a cash grab, with users feeling that it is a poorly executed mobile app masquerading as a legitimate PC game. The game is described as unremarkable and indicative of greedy practices by its developers.

    • “Jet Car Stunts is a mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as if it was a real PC game (it's not)... it's a cash grab from greedy mobile devs. This mobile app is a simple, low-poly 3D racing game unremarkable in all respects.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users have reported significant stability issues, particularly with controller support, citing buggy and inconsistent trigger functionality as a major frustration. Additionally, concerns regarding map design have been raised, suggesting that these elements detract from the overall gameplay experience.

    • “I have two main complaints focusing around controller support and map design. The controller was very annoying to use as the triggers were very buggy and inconsistent for me.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The replayability of Jet Car Stunts largely depends on the player's motivation to improve their performance in time trials and speedrunning. While some may find the game short if they only complete each track once, others appreciate the depth and content available for those seeking to enhance their skills.

    • “As it's often the case in games that focus on time trials and speedrunning, it's the player's drive for improvement that determines how replayable Jet Car Stunts is. If all you want is to get through each track once and in a single game mode, you may feel it's short, while I feel it offers a lot of content.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews indicate that the game's optimization is a significant concern, with multiple users highlighting performance issues. Overall, players are experiencing subpar performance that detracts from the gaming experience.

  • humor
