Jetbrix is a 1986 release from Gremlin Graphics. It is another gem from the prolific Shaun Southern – the creator of Kikstart (among others).
It looks a bit like a cross between Tetris and Jet Pac, although it’s really not like either.

Santa’s Christmas Caper, Commodore 64
Developed and published by Zeppelin in 1990, Santa’s Christmas Caper is a rarity: it is a Christmas-themed “Bullet Hell” shooter that is actually not too bad.
Boot Hill, Arcade
Midway‘s 1977 classic, Boot Hill, actually owes it existence to another game – Taito‘s 1975 arcade game Gun Fight (aka Western Gun in Japan). Boot Hill is an authorised remake of Gun Fight.
Solar Jetman, Commodore 64
Developed by Software Creations for Sales Curve Interactive, Solar Jetman is a legendary ‘lost’ game that was canned by its publisher in 1991 and has since resurfaced and been ‘preserved’ online.
Mega Man 8, PlayStation
By the time Mega Man reached the Sony PlayStation in 1996 he’d undergone another make-over. This one mostly aesthetic – Capcom going for a different look and feel to the SNES games, and – it has to be said – not looking nearly as good.
Mega Man X3, Super Nintendo
The last of three Mega Man X games on the Super Nintendo, Mega Man X3 was published in 1995 by Capcom.
Mega Man 7, Super Nintendo
The last of the SNES Mega Man games, and second only to the Mega Man X series in terms of ‘best SNES Mega Man games’. It was first published in 1995 by Capcom.
Mega Man X2, Super Nintendo
Mega Man X2 was released for the Super Nintendo in December 1994, before Mega Man 7, which came in March the following year, and was proving to be the new standard-bearer for the series.
Mega Man V, Game Boy
The final Mega Man game on the Nintendo Game Boy was Capcom‘s 1994 release Mega Man V, and it is arguably the best in the series.
Mega Man X, Super Nintendo
Definitely the best of the Super Nintendo Mega Man games. From it’s dramatic intro, and the semblance of a plot, to the beautiful graphics, Mega Man X is arguably the best game in the entire Mega Man franchise.
