Jason Jupiter, Star Cadet

About this game

Jason Jupiter, Star Cadet is a platforming game utilizing text-mode (ASCII) characters for its "graphics". That means jumping smileys, which Im always a fan of. The story is some generic space-sounding stuff, but the gameplay is surprisingly decent given the time it was made. The goal is to collect all of the heart symbols and make it to the exit ("E") while avoiding the obstacles. Its a tough game, which can require planning and precision along with fast reflexes.Jason Jupiter, Star Cadet (DOS Game) is a classic, action-packed space adventure game where players assume the role of Jason Jupiter, a young cadet in the Star Fleet.
