Full Game Details
From the Devs
Skybolt Zack is the result of a unique way of mixing platformer mechanics and colour matching gameplay.
Controls are tight and Zack’s ability to rocket punch, dash, focus, change direction when destroying an enemy and more, offers more depth than what meets the eye - following the “easy to learn, hard to master” mantra.
It’s a platformer where you don’t jump, and a music game where you dictate your own rhythm. It feels like no other game!
48 frantic challenging levels that can all be completed without putting a foot back on the ground
Branching routes with different levels of difficulty
More than 15 environments divided into 5 distinct worlds
An art style combining 3D assets and digital painted textures with tons of FX and explosions!
Evolutive soundtrack inspired by famous platformers from the 90’s
More than a dozen types of robotic enemies for renewed challenges throughout the game
Dedicated speedrun and score attack modes
2 different leaderboards: one for the best scores and one for the best times on every level
Fully customizable controls and colour-blind options
No boring dialogue! (You’d have skipped them anyway...)
Discover multiple routes that lead to different exits across every level, allowing for tons of replayability!
There are no difficulty settings in Skybolt Zack - beginners will take the easier lower routes, only the best will reach the upper paths to unlock the most challenging levels!
Play with any controller you want*! Controls are fully remappable and there’s plenty of options to tweak them to your preference, including the possibility to customize the colours of the enemies!
*While you can choose to play with a keyboard, we recommend the use of a gamepad or arcade stick and decline the responsibility of any injury coming from you trying to play with a dance mat or Dreamcast’s fishing rod ;)
In addition to the story mode, Skybolt Zack offers two additional gameplay modes for an extra challenge for the more competitive players!
Time Attack - dedicated to those in search of the fastest times, providing them with tools to work on improving their run. Score Attack - ideal for those wanting to focus on achieving the possible highest score.
As focusing on scoring points and playing for the fastest time leads to very different strategies, Skybolt Zack includes 2 worldwide leaderboards: one for the highest score and one for the best times. Just go for it!
