## What is BombJacke?

Bomb Jacke need your Help!!!!! 

Controls:
------------

GamePad MFI, Xbox, PS, Compatible:

-Pad or Stick to Move Jacke, trigger A to Jump.

Touch in screen, two areas:

- Left Hand -> Bomb Jacke moves left or right (Virtual Joystick).

- Right Hand -> Bomb Jacke jumps, tap and hold to make bigger jumps. When Bomb Jacke is jumping if tap Bomb Jacke glides in the air.

The Game
-------------

The player controls Bomb Jacke, a superhero mighty mouse who can leap and glide. Someone has planted 24 bombs at landscapes. Bomb Jacke must fly around the screen to collect the bombs. Each screen uses a different configuration of platforms upon which Bomb Jacke may run and jump. Eventually, the levels reoccur a number of times with increasing difficulty.

Bomb Jacke "defuses" the bombs by simply touching them. As soon as he has touched the first, he triggers a sequence in which another bomb's fuse lights up, and so on. A player can score a bonus in each round by touching 20 or more bombs in the correct lit-fuse sequence. Bomb Jacke may also defuse an unlit bomb by touching it, but this impedes his opportunity to score the bonus for that screen. It also delays the appearance of the game's bonuses and power-ups. The lit fuses have no strategic purpose other than the bonus; a lit bomb left unattended does not explode.

You control Bomb Jacke throughout the game. Bomb Jacke one and only mission is to collect all of the bombs in the stage before moving on to the next and collecting more. In his way will be several enemies which will seek to stop him. Bomb Jacke will lose one life any time he comes into contact with any of the enemies. There is no time limit, so Bomb Jacke can take as long as he needs to clear the stage. However, the longer you wait, the more likely it is that the enemies will overwhelm him. Bomb Jacke can turn the tables on his enemies by collecting a power coin (P), which will temporarily turn all of the enemies into coins which he can collect. Whether Bomb Jacke earns extra lives by reaching certain coins.

Power Coin (P), Obtainable after meter filling the Bonus Multiplier 20 segments: unlit bombs by 1, and lit bombs by 2.

Bonus Coin (B), Obtainable every time the score reaches a multiple of 5,000, until the Bonus Multiplier reaches x5 per level.

Extra Coin (E), Obtainable when Bomb Jacke has "killed" enough enemies by collecting them as Coins, and score reaches multiple of 50,000.

Enjoy it!!!!

### 1/5 — Nul

*2026-03-01*

J’ai perdu 1,99 e 
Bug , pas manettes visuelles 
Bref désinstaller

### 3/5 — Fun game

*2026-01-02*

The good is good and fun the speed is incredible the only one major problem is the invisible touch control doesn’t respond normally when i press the bottom screen bomb jack doesn’t fly often he just get stuck on the bottom until seconds later it worked so not bad but not perfect maybe ill try to use a bluetooth controller to see if that lag will solve the problem but overall decent experience.

### 1/5 — Miserable Steuerung

*2025-07-05*

Springen und sich bewegen nach Zufallsgenerator? Absolut unspielbar. Grauenhaft.

### 5/5 — Gioco stellare

*2025-04-23, version 3.0*

Tutto perfetto, il gioco non è semplice ma con un po’ di allenamento si arriva verso il 20 quadro anche completando correttamente i bonus. Unico bug riscontrato: non permette l’accumulo di vite oltre 8. Da quella in poi anche se prendi nuove vite non le conta. Questo aspetto andrebbe migliorato per facilitare il raggiungimento di quadri superiori al 30esimo

### 1/5 — Jeux de lin enfance

*2024-08-31*

Ben je préférais l’ancien. Trop dur pas assez adapté à l’iPhone.

### 5/5 — Adaptación certera

*2024-03-24, version 3.0*

Muy bien adaptado el clásico, ya sea con control táctil o con un mando conectado. Genial la idea de los hi-score globales.

### 1/5 — NUL

*2023-08-09*

Ne fonctionne pas sur iPad. Arnaque…

### 1/5 — Kein Verkauf mehr

*2022-10-01*

Wie bereits erwähnt, die Steuerung ist eine Frechheit. So kann das Spiel nichts genutzt werden.
 
Die App hat nichtmal einen Stern verdient

### 5/5 — Ora troppo difficile

*2021-11-14, version 2.1*

Si può modificare la difficolta? Sono un super appassionato di questo gioco, ma credo che il livello impostato sia troppo difficile. Mi spiego  i primi 7/8 quadri ( come si chaiamavano ai miei tempi) sono giocabili. Poi sale troppo di difficoltà, sarebbe opportuno diminuire un po la difficoltà per rendere la partita più longeva. Lo sto consigliando ai miei amici, ma cosi è troppo breve il game.

### 1/5 — Betrug

*2021-10-31*

Sorry, aber ich habe Bomb Jack geliebt und auf dem Automaten, kennen die heutigen Zocker nicht mehr, als auf dem C64 gespielt bis zur Erschöpfung. Hier kann ich nicht mal springen und komme über Level 1 hinaus. Die 2€ hätte ich besser einer Klo-Frau gegeben. Das ist echt eine Frechheit, dafür Geld zu verlangen. Ich schätze die Arbeit, die Entwickler in solche Kaliber hineinstecken, aber wenn es nicht funktioniert, sollte man ehrlich sein und es lassen!!! Keine Anleitung/Hilfe in der Steuerung. Ich verfolge seit Jahren die Versuche von Programmierern, dieses Spiel umzusetzen. Alle sind daran gescheitert. Lasst es und weckt keine unerfüllbaren Hoffnungen!

Ich will mein Geld zurück!!!
