Space Rider

If you're in the local Jobcentre looking for an exciting new career, then "tester for the Space Rider Jet Pack Co." may sound appealing. There's travel to the 23rd planet test site, adventure, glamour and the like. What they don't tell you, however, is the rather important fact that the aforementioned planet has been claimed by aliens - big nasty ones, with guns!

But if the idea of testing new kit in a war zone is your cup of rosé, then lead on Macduff and become a Space Rider. The mission that has been devised - by those who are nice and snug and safe back on Earth no doubt! - is one of mineral collection. You have to find the route across the planet, zapping bug guys and grabbing any gem stones (there are 99 in all) that happen to fall into your path.

The gravity (or lack of it) hinders control of the jet pack slightly, with first-timers rocketing upwards rather than floating. Life isn't all that difficult, though, because the only other control to worry about is the gun, and you wouldn't be seen dead without that would you? (Well you might be seen dead, but doing little else!)
