Jetstrike is a side scrolling shooter, similar in feel to Defender (1981) and Wings of Fury (1987) with a wrap around screen and left-to-right-to-left turning across the landscape. Jetstrike includes 200 aircraft to choose from each with a slightly different feel and almost as many weapons with which to shoot down aircraft or blow up ground-based enemies.
