Overview
Description

After Burst puts you in the pilot seat of a combat robot on a mission to destroy the enemy orb. Each of the 30 single‑screen levels combines fast‑paced shooting, platforming obstacles and short puzzles that test timing and precision. The game features a customizable gun—adjust the angle and hold the fire button to change shot distance—culminating in a boss battle every tenth stage. Play solo or with a friend in split‑screen mode for added competition.

Jumpjet is an action side‑scroller where you control a jet to complete four distinct missions, each ending with intense combat. The final mission pits you against the dreaded Head of Doom in a climactic boss fight. Defeating all four levels loops you back to the first mission, letting the challenge continue until you run out of lives. Its retro graphics and tight controls deliver classic arcade thrills.
