Congrats!!! Guessed that you guys would have made it into the top 3, simply by looking at your in-game screenshots!

However, I'm getting the Radeon bug again with your demo. Somehow, the alt-tab thing worked for me, and I was able to load up the title screen. But after hitting the Return key, the whole app froze, and it went on like that for 20 minutes before I decided to terminate it via alt+ctrl+del

Just wondering if there are any workabouts? Or perhaps a recompiled version exe using patch 3(I hear that the radeon issue is caused by patch 4)? Thanks, and once again, great work guys!!

joshualimm >> Sorry you can't get it working. We know there were a few compatibility problems.

If you can bare with us for a couple of weeks, we should get this fixed + you will also have the complete game ( the compo version was also compiled in windowed mode ) not quite sure why ? it was supposed to be full screen.

AND PLEASE DON'T TAKE ANY NOTICE OF THAT HORRIBLE GREY INFO SCREEN !!!!!! it was NOT of my making !!! *slaps Van-B for improvising* !!

Getting the compo version off in time was hard work ... but rest asured, The FULL game is on it's way.

The game is great! Congratulations!

Another bug note (I think) - When I hit the Ctrl key the camera view changed. Maybe I didn't work it right, but the new view made the game unplayable and I wasn't able to get the camera back to the side view.

Am I missing something?

No thats not a bug ....... CTRL key to bring you CLOSE UP to the models ( you can hold it down too ) and the camera will follow jetman.

To go back to normal view press >> SHIFT key.

Sorry, but we didn't even have time to get it BETA tested... so any bug reports would be much appreciated.

We'll release the cheat mode to you one day as well !!!

Anyways... like I said, there are a few glitches with the game ( graphics glitches like the thrust anim appearing in the wrong place etc ) we will have all these sorted though.

Glad you like it though.

Wellllll - the source is provided.....

Hehe, I'll let you guys hunt for them, the only clue I'll give is pause.

As Simple says, at the end of the month we'll be releasing Jetpac-propper, with more levels, baddies, and the scariest robot in the known galaxy.

The Control and Shift keys were for debugging, forgot to take them out .
