About the game
Captain Francis lands on Mars. Hop in low gravity, blast martians with your laser, fire your power jets, and grow ten times bigger to squash them flat.
Captain Francis flies his rocket, the Red Kestrel, all the way to Mars, and the martians are not pleased to see him. Land, cross five sectors of the red planet and plant the Earth flag in every one.
Mars gravity is low, so every jump is a long, floaty hop. Hold jump in the air to fire your power jets and sail across wide craters; the tank refills whenever you land. Blast martians with your laser gun: little green walkers, purple goo-spitters, flying saucers that drop slime from above, and big four-armed brutes.
Every martian you beat and every crystal you collect charges Francis's superpower. When it is full, press GIANT: Francis grows ten times bigger for nine seconds, squashes every martian he steps on, swats saucers out of the sky and shakes the ground flat when he lands from a jump.
FIVE SECTORS: the Landing Site, the Crater Fields, the Dust Canyon, the Polar Ice Cap and the Mothership, a boss fight against a giant martian saucer. Three stars on every sector. Touch, keyboard and controller supported, eleven languages, and it all runs offline in one file.
