Rake In Grass releases Jets'n'Guns GOLD

Rake In Grass releases the sequel to the action side-scrolling shooter Jets'n'Guns - Jets'n'Guns GOLD. It is almost two years since Rake In Grass released the Jets'n'Guns. The original Jets'n'Guns was appraised both by the gamers community and critics alike, who consider Jets'n'Guns to be the best side-scrolling shooter game for the PC and Mac platform. Shortly after its release, Jets'n'Guns entered the Macworld's 2006 Game Hall of Fame. Jets'n'Guns is one of a kind in games developed independently by the large mainstream software and distribution companies. The independent Rake In Grass development team had the freedom to implement all their ideas, visions, creativity and irony, without any restraints, into Jets'n'Guns.

The mix of originality and humor makes Jets'n'Guns an unparalleled sci-fi parody full of remarks, references and jokes like no other on the market.

Jets'n'Guns GOLD is more than just an enhancement of the original game. Jets'n'Guns includes twice as many high resolution levels, new weapons, space ships market and device tuning, dozens of new enemies (the number reaching 270 different species) and new bosses etc. The smashing original soundtrack by the metal band Machinae Supremacy was boosted up and extended to match the Jets'n'Guns GOLD unique atmosphere.
