Overview
Jet Paco for Amstrad CPC is the fourth iteration of Jet Paco. It builds on the previous games in the series, but is not identical. The siblings Paco and Puri Rebollez are astronauts and their job is to gather energonia crystals, a material used to power spaceships. They get around using a jetpack. In this version of the game, they detect an abandoned ship and investigate to look for crystals. Players get to choose between Paco or Puri at the start, and there are three missions in total. The missions consist of several single-screen rooms connected vertically and horizontally, so there is free exploration to collect the crystals in any order. The characters can fly around with an unlimited amount of fuel using a jetpack. Movement is based on thrust, so the player can either keep a button pressed to keep rising or use small taps to hover and navigate small passages. Unlike the previous games, they cannot fly through platforms when approaching them from below. There are hazards and enemies in irregular patterns to avoid. The characters have no means to attack, the focus is on careful navigation using the jetpack mechanic. The HUD shows how many crystals are left to be found.
