Jetpack Joyride is an Endless Runner developed and published by Halfbrick Studios.

Gameplay[]

Jetpack Joyride revolves on the character Barry Steakfries flying through a long laboratory while dodging various obstacles under a single life. The player controls Barry through the use of a single button. Similar to the Drop Pack, Barry flies upwards when the button/screen is held and drops down once let go. Barry slowly speeds up as gameplay progresses, and the game ends once Barry crashes onto something.

Overall, the player attempts to reach the farthest distance possible before dying. Various power-ups, gadgets, and vehicles allow the player to take extra hits, revive, add distance, or make gameplay easier. These power-ups can be earned and upgraded by using coins which are found all over the place.

Metal Slug Collaboration[]

A collaboration event between Jetpack Joyride and Metal Slug was announced on August 16, 2020 and runs from September 2, 2020 through September 25, 2020. It features new costumes, jetpacks, alternate versions of vehicles, and backgrounds based on missions from the Metal Slug series. The scientists wear Rebel Army uniforms, and the missiles are modeled after the Rebel Rockets.

Each skin costs $2.99. The Slug Mariner costs $5.99 if the Wave Rider wasn't purchased yet. Bundles of specific set of skins are worth $9.99 each. Buying the Metal Slug Ultimate Pack, which is everything including backgrounds, costs $29.99.
