Sky Blaster (JETPACK ASSET)

Asset ID

1432630035269193

Inspiration

When we made Space Jumpers, we spent quite a lot of time perfecting the jetpack. It had to feel just right for mobile players to enjoy—and we think we landed on something pretty special. Now you can easily drop it into your own world—no coding skills required.

What it does

We designed this jetpack to be as user-friendly (and fun) as possible. When players grab it, the jetpack automatically snaps onto their back—no fiddling required. One button press and whoosh! They’re soaring through the air like space heroes. Add a few platforms and—bam!—you’ve got yourself a jetpack platformer in no time. And because no space adventure is complete without them, we built in lasers. Jetpacks + lasers = instant fun. Go on, enjoy the ride.

How we built it

Many TypeScript hours and testing went into creating this asset.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest challenge? Building an asset that’s powerful enough to be genuinely useful, yet so easy that even creators with zero TypeScript experience can drop it in effortlessly. Honestly, it sometimes felt like we were juggling two projects at once: one to make the asset look amazing, and another to make it actually easy to use. We’re pretty proud of how we managed to pull off both—and have fun doing it!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are especially proud of how easy this asset is to implement even for beginner creators who have no TypeScript experience. The jetpack asset is ridiculously easy to use - even if you’ve never touched TypeScript. Just drop the asset into your world, read the handy README, and you’re ready for liftoff. No coding required. Customizing is just as smooth. Click on the jetpack controller and pop open the Properties window. Here you can tweak the lift power, swap out the laser or jet sounds, and even trade the smoke trail particles for something more wild.

What we learned

Publishing an asset for the Public Asset Library was a first for us. We are very impressed with that feature and hope to use it more in the future.

What's next for Sky Blaster (JETPACK ASSET)

We’re looking forward to seeing how this asset will be received by the community. If we see a demand for updates, we’ll certainly provide them. There is a lot more that can be done with this asset: toggle jetpack styles, toggle types of flying, add additional weapons, etc.
