Jetpack Jackass is a high-flying Time Waster
Filed under: Fun, Games, Kids, Time-Wasters, WebJetpack Jackass is a Flash game by Adult Swim. The object is to get your character, Sam, to the moon so that he can prove his love to Stacy, who thinks he's just an idiot. He blasts off with a jetpack, and in order for him to go higher, you must aim him toward the various objects in the sky that he can bounce up from.
Some objects, such as falling buildings or satellites, give Sam a bigger boost than the regular brick and wood bars. He can also collect fuel cans, which fire him up into the air with the click of your mouse if he gets into trouble. Also, if he collects all of the letters in Stacy's name (which are floating around in purple hearts), he suddenly gets a huge boost from a big pack of purple helium balloons that temporarily shows up.
The game is fun, but if I have a knock against it, it's that it's too easy. Worse, if you beat it once by getting a score that's higher than 100,000 KM (called “shooting the moon”), the game basically just starts over again. If you can do it once, you can do it over and over, and nothing new is introduced. Your total distance is aggregated, though, so it should be possible to get a truly ridiculous score. I quit trying at around 250,000 KM.
