The Jetsons: Invasion of the Planet Pirates is a 1994 action-platformer for the SNES, developed by Sting and published by Taito. Players take on the role of George Jetson, who must stop Captain Zoom and his intergalactic pirates from pillaging the solar system’s resources. Interestingly, this game was released in Japan with entirely different characters and story under the title “Yลkai Buster: Ruka no Daibลken”.
How to Play
Your main tool is a specialized vacuum gadget that can inhale enemies and blocks. You can either hold enemies to use them as projectiles or use the vacuum’s suction to cling to walls and ceiling tracks. Use the D-pad to move, press B to jump, and use Y to operate the vacuum (these default SNES controls are typically mapped to your keyboard’s Arrow Keys, Z, and X in the browser).
Tips
- The vacuum’s wall-climbing mechanic is essential for navigating vertical shafts and avoiding hazards; practice gripping and jumping from walls early on.
- Sucking up an enemy and firing it into a row of foes is often safer and more effective than taking them on one by one.
