Rocket Jockey
Platform: PC
Publisher: Sega
Developer: Rocket Science
As a point of reference, the minimum requirements to install this game were a P90 with 16MB of RAM.
Rocket Jockey was the first PC game I did level design for. A custom editor was used, and like many others, it was not fully functional until the final month of development.
Legendary surf-guitarist Dick Dale performed the rockin' soundtrack.
The game was a novel concept, combining the rush of the Speeder Bikes from JEDI, and the hairpin-harpoon-turns from Tim Burton's BATMAN.
R.J. got many favorable reviews, with most negative comments being about the lack of shipped network-support, despite being sold as such on-the-box. Chem them out:
NEXT GENERATION MAGAZINE April 1997
Gave it 4 out of 5 Stars!
GAMECENTER.COM 1997
Gave it 4 out of 5 Stars!
COMPUTER GAMING WORLD April 1997
Said; "This game sports some devious arena design, with one new twist or obstacle in each successive arena."
PCGAMER May 1997
Gave Rocket Jockey a B+!
