About Rockjack
Get Your Rocks Off!
ROCKJACK is a new space shooter inspired by the classic ASTEROIDS from 1979, as well as other games in the genre, all given a modern refresh. Fast, fluid, immersive gameplay is our primary goal in creating ROCKJACK!
You're a gig worker in the distant future, scrounging a living as best you can on the interstellar frontier. Short on funds, you've decided to become a ROCKJACK - an asteroid miner - and you've signed a contract with the GOX CORPORATION to venture out into the asteroid fields of deep space in search of valuable resources! It's a dirty and dangerous job - ancient seeker mines and alien marauders haunt the asteroids and will try to stop you! But if you survive, there's a very tiny possibility that you might get rich!
- Classic Arcade Action updated with better graphics, better physics, better gameplay, and a whole lot more attitude
- Six different types of asteroids to harvest
- Five different types of enemies to get in your way
- Saucers drop over two dozen different types of powerups to enhance your asteroid-hunting experience - use their own technology against them!

[h1][b]Rockjack[/b][/h1] [i]Asteroids-inspired and pump with actual physics[/i] That pretty much sums it up already. Just a lonely ship cruising through the empty space... well not exactly empty since there is asteroids... and not exactly lonely since there is... well we will get to that. [h1]The Key-Mechanics:[/h1] [list] [*][b]Fly & Shoot[/b] - The main thing(s) you will have to do. Always avoid obstacles of course! [*][b]Aliens[/b] - As I said in the short introduction you are not alone actually. There is a total of four different enemy types to attack you. Some try to shoot you down, some do a suicide crash right into your face. But all of them only exist to tear your ship apart. [*][b]PickUps[/b] - Those previously named enemies may drop special pickups to upgrade your ship, refill your armor, advance your armor, davance your weapons... lots of stuff to pick up in order to survive even longer. [/list] [h1]Physical impressions:[/h1] [b][u]The Graphics[/u]:[/b] Since it is obviously inspired by [b][i]Asteroids[/i][/b] from the 70s you shouldn't expect to much of an eye-candy. However the modern shape brought into play with actual three dimensional asteroids and enemies you …5 found this helpful
Yes! Any fan of asteroids will like this one. You can collect pill pick ups that increase your fire, sheilds, tone down rock behavior, and more I haven't discovered yet. Nice flashy explosions and there is more to this game than meets the eye. Game is actually FUN to play and look forward to entering the rock swarm and getting to know jack, because I don't know jack yet. cheers!5 found this helpful
Operating System: Do you want to turn on sticky keys? Me: STOP! My keys are sticky enough!!! (Sweat) Thanks Rockjack. There is a joy to correctly predicting your shots as always, but there is also a searching and collecting aspect with the different asteroid types that is very addictive. Disclosure: The developer of Rockjack played my game for 12 hours and then reviewed it, then gave me feedback, so I decided to check out his game.2 found this helpful
Игра 'Rockjack' — это настоящее погружение в мир ритма и испытаний. Отличный саундтрек, который заставляет двигаться в такт, сочетается с интуитивно понятным, но в то же время требующим мастерства геймплеем. Сложность постепенно нарастает, не давая заскучать, но и не превращаясь в непреодолимую стену. Каждое новое испытание — это не просто набор кнопок, а настоящая головоломка, требующая внимания и реакции. Визуальный стиль игры минималистичен, но стилен, что позволяет полностью сконцентрироваться на музыке и действии. 'Rockjack' — это та игра, в которую хочется возвращаться снова и снова, чтобы побить свои рекорды и почувствовать этот драйв. Прекрасный выбор для тех, кто любит проверять свою ловкость и слух.1 found this helpful
[b]Rockjackl[/b] 30 Jun 22 This game is just what it says it is, an updated Asteroids. It works, it is fun, what more could you want? Oh, yeah it is also being developed by a single individual who has a full-time job and they are doing this as a labor of love - their words, not mine. Couldn’t really ask for more.

Really fun game!! The game mechanics are super smooth, and it gets surprisingly challenging. I still haven't passed level 3! The game feels very well polished, for example, the retrograde thruster has less thrust available than the main thruster, and the damage to your ship / your health is reflected in a circle (and the ship has directional damage)! It would be cool if you could land on an asteroid, although that wouldn't follow the original Asteroids arcade game :) I'm just a big fan of Lunar Lander.. Can't wait for future updates!!1 found this helpful
