Off-Road Velociraptor Safari

I think they're aiming to get most of their games done in 4 - 8 weeks.

Argh, that clip made me think of the nes game my friend had where your space ship crashed or something and had to bring the pieces back using a jet pack. It might be a semi-classic but I can't remember the name. I hated it so much. Still don't know why.

Looks very nice, though. The game will either be incredibly fun or somewhat frustrating (if they don't get the controls right).

Umm... it's not an NES game, but Jetpac? If so, this game is awesome, so to you.

It was a bit like that but the parts were so far apart that you had to search for them, and there probably was some kind of time/fuel limit. Frustrating as hell.

That's it..

Still made by Rare though? Cool, I didn't know this one existed.

So, does anyone still play this raptor safari?

If so, I've figured out how to get the egg out behind the invisible wall, however it kinda flies away....so you don't actually "get" it.

Do explain. I still occasionally have a quick play (it's still a great game!).

It's better explained this way. I uploaded this today.

I am looking forward to this. Their twitter feed says it should be up mid next week, so I expect goodness. Tempted to get iSplume for the iPod too.

And it's "live" with "I Hate Clowns"

[ThunderPeel2001]

And Jetpack Brontisaurus is finished, too?!

[n0wak]

Indeed it is!

It's very pretty! Perhaps deserving of its own thread.

I'd like to report that almost two years after the fact, I have beaten my high score and it currently rests at 1,360,200. Still not good enough for the tops, though.

The Facebook version of the game got me back into the full version.

In your face!!!! Seriously, I'm glad to see I've managed to beat you at one game (your scores on Geometry Wars 2 are nothing less than obscene!).
