Jinks Maps

Recommended Posts

I really thought there was more to the game, otherwise I would have had this mapped out last year.

 

If anyone wants to update the maps with tips or whatever else, or even just add playing tips etc to the topic thread, be my guest. ;)

Well, there -is- more to the game than the maps really show all the same. Repeat runs through the same base level do have extra things added. I'll experiment the game more and perhaps update these maps somehow if it looks feasible to do. :)

Jinks is a great game and under rated. It's an omnidirectional paddle game with an amazing background. This would ahve been "the game of the future" to people playing super breakout and video olympics in 1981.

Wait a second!? You forgot the Interlude screen. :)

 

And, what the heck does the voice at the beginning of the game really say, anyway?

My best guess is:

 

Falcon!

<gauntlet game sound>

You can't catch me!

Yo!

 

But I have no idea if that's right.

 

Other interpretations?

You are correct, the sample is from Gauntlet. The same people who programmed Jinks were doing the 7800 version of the game.
