History Videogame / JetsNGuns

* FrickinLaserBeams: Starting off with the VX-Masterblaster Laser, and then adding BeamSpam with the VX-Quattro.

* RecursiveAmmo: The Banjo missile plays this trope straight and true, but the projectiles generated by the [=CHAOS=] Particle Generator takes this UpToEleven, with an individual particle ''cloning itself'' upon hitting something, and the clones ''cloning themselves'' upon impact, and the cycle repeating itself again, and again, and again...

* NintendoHard: Several levels throughout the game feature a mix of BulletHell, TrialAndErrorGameplay and CheckPointStarvation, although never all of these at once. The later missions also feature enemies that can dish out a lot of damage by either firing HitScan lasers or moving fast enough to [[RammingAlwaysWorks ram you]].

A sequel, ''Jets'n'Guns 2'', is available as an Early Access title [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/830820/JetsnGuns_2/ on Steam]] after a long period of DevelopmentHell.

* UnrealisticBlackHoles: In ''2'', you fly through Quantum Base while everything around you gets sucked into a black hole. After you get sucked into the black hole, you end up in... virtual space.

* HealingFactor: The Nanomachines repair your ship's hull integrity, but only if your heat sink stays at 0 for a few seconds. In addition, they only heal you up to 50% of max health unless they are upgraded to Level 2 or beyond.

* NewGamePlus: Once you kill Xoxx or get sent back in time, you start over on the next difficulty level with everything you have accumulated so far. While this is relatively pointless in the original unless you're pursuing bragging rights, replaying the ''Gold Edition'' on the same pilot up to five times is necessary in order to unlock all the extra super-weapons and ships. In the sequel, the game throws tougher and harder enemies and obstacles at you each time, up to 10 times.

* NoPlotNoProblem: In ''2'', beyond the bit of briefing you get to read for each level, there's no real plot.

* CognizantLimbs: Anything bigger than a small ship have destructable pieces. This especially applies to bosses and buildings.

* NewGamePlus: Once you kill Xoxx or get sent back in time, you start over on the next difficulty level with everything you have accumulated so far. While this is relatively pointless in the original unless you're pursuing bragging rights, replaying the ''Gold Edition'' on the same pilot up to five times is necessary in order to unlock all the extra super-weapons and ships.

** [[spoiler:Completing the campaign twice unlocks]] the Coffinator 5000B as an available player ship. Besides retaining the same distinctive shape as the WakeUpCallBoss, it is the only player ship that can mount 3 rear guns, and it has the strongest hull, befitting its original design as a boss-class vessel, while having a level of maneuverability only slightly worse than the [=TMiG=]-310. At 5 million credits, it is also the most expensive player ship that can be bought.

* ADayInTheLimelight:
** [[spoiler:Completing the campaign twice unlocks]] the Coffinator 5000B as an available player ship.

At 5 million credits, it is also the most expensive player ship that can be bought.
** The [=SpaceHog=], a smaller version of the ship used by Agent Lemon's captor, is available as a player ship [[spoiler:after completing the campaign thrice.]] It downplays this trope due to the increased number of completed campaign runs required to unlock it as well as a complete lack of FlavorText. In terms of performance, it can carry the same number of weapons as the [=TMiG=]-310 but is otherwise superior in all other respects barring its larger size and higher purchase cost.

* ZergRush: The Swarm gun is essentially based on this trope, firing small bots with weak drills that are capable of DeathOfAThousandCuts. Its upgrades mainly make it fire more bots per shots rather than increasing the damage done by each bot.

* DescriptionPorn: Everything that's sold in the shop. This basically means every gun, missile, bomb and ship you can buy.

** ''Gold'' includes an updated version of the above mission, where you must now use a weaponised jetpack, rather than your ship, to conduct the heist, and adds two more escort missions. The first of these is a subversion as the research vessels you are escorting are immune to enemy fire and collisions; the second one involves an object resembling a giant beer keg that takes up ''the entire back part of your field of view'' and plays this trope straight.

** Starts with the Daisycutter as an entry-level weapon, which leads into heavier rotary guns like the Hammerhead, further leading to the [[UpToEleven Hydra Machine Gun, which is ''seven'' Gatling guns bolted together.]]

* HyperspaceArsenal: The Weapon Set switcher allows you to change up weapons/configurations on the fly. That means you can cram ''multiple full loadouts'' on your ship, although you have to switch between them.
* IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels: The Easy difficulty setting for the ''Gold Edition'' is called "Too Fat To Die".

* JokeItem: The Punisher, which is [[spoiler: a baseball bat that you can get by shooting down a flying toilet somewhere near the end of the game]]. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the game and makes you [[TwentyPercentCooler 37.182% cooler]] when you have it equipped, but it's hardly worth using because of its ridiculously short range.

* LethalJokeItem: [[spoiler:The Tomator Deluxe, yet another secret weapon]]. Mounting it on your ship will make you an ImprobableWeaponUser, but if you upgrade it, you may be surprised at how its relatively high fire rate offsets its sub-par damage rate per shot.

** Ammong the various armor types seen in the game, there is only one that cannot be destroyed by the player's weapons in any way. It's called Hulk Panzer.

* NintendoHard

* OhCrap: Your character says this after getting through the whole of the Abacus-I Artificial Asteroid.
-->"''Oh, shit! Something's gone really bad...\\

* OneManArmy: The player, of course. The player even raids the [=FeX=] Labs in order to snag a ship capable of taking on a whole army. By the end of the playthrough, you'll probably have enough firepower to wipe the whole screen clean.

* OverclockingAttack: The [=RemCon=] can be used to overheat (ie. violently explode) some enemy missile launchers.
* {{Overheating}}: Fire your weapons continuously for too long and they shut down to cool off.
* TheParalyzer: The [=RemCon=] is used to "Jesterize" the Dragon, causing it to drop a huge credit bonus and stop firing on you, turning it into a sitting duck for you to destroy. The [=RemCon=] is also used in the ''Gold Edition'' to turn on a radio tower, causing all {{Mooks}} within range to drop their weapons and dance on the spot, allowing you to kill them.

* QuadDamage: Comes in the form of a silver fist-shaped powerup that grants a BattleAura and four times damage ''per shot'' for twenty seconds. Combine with MoreDakka for maximum satisfaction. [[UpToEleven It also stacks with itself]].

* SecretCharacter: The [[spoiler: [[FunWithAcronyms L.E.D]] Zeppelin and Airworm Helicopter]], requiring the player to hack or destroy specific devices in order to obtain. There are also several hidden weapons (ranging from the [[JokeItem Punisher]] to the [[GameBreaker Omnigun]]) scattered throughout the game.

* SwirlyEnergyThingy: The Time Portal [[spoiler: that dumps you in the [=FeX=] labs. In the original game, said SwirlyEnergyThingy also dumps you back to the beginning for the NewGamePlus]]

** A handful of weapons from the original game are supplemented, not replaced, with upgraded counterparts in ''Gold'', the most prominent example being the La Fontaine. It is the cheapest and weakest gun you can buy, and even with full upgrades, it has subpar range and damage. Even the first three words in its promotional description says it: "Cheap toy gun". In ''Gold'', the La Fontaine Mk.II is made available for purchase towards the last few missions, which costs 4,100,000 credits for the base model and is one of the strongest and most expensive guns in the game. Other guns that received this treatment include the VX Masterblaster (supplemented with the VX-Quattro) and Tsunami Wave Generator (supplemented with the Tsunami BETA).

* ZergRush: The Swarm gun is essentially based on this trope, firing small bots with weak drills that are capable of DeathOfAThousandCuts. Its upgrades mainly makes it fire faster rather than increasing the damage done by each bot.

* TheBadGuyWins: In the original ''[=JnG=]'', [[spoiler:Xoxx fires the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon and destroys the universe]]. You blow up his vessel, but he escapes in his backup time washing machine to the past where he will enslave the world. You somehow survive [[spoiler:the destruction of the universe]] and are left wandering the remains of it [[spoiler:until you accidentally get sucked into a time warp and end up at...[[NewGamePlus the start of the game, this time with everything you bought]]]].

* BoringButPractical: One of your starting weapons is the Daisycutter. Its Mk II variant in the original game, when fully upgraded, turned into a SpreadShot that had a fire arc rivalled only by the best weapons in the game. This means that it usually remained as a staple on the player's loadouts long after its damage output is eclipsed. The Daisycutter gets a Mk III in ''Gold'', where it can be upgraded further, resulting in less spread but a much more powerful forward shot, making it a cost-effective mid-end weapon.

* BrickJoke: In the early-game, when the U.S.H.F. breaks into the [=FeX=] Labs to steal the [=TMiG=]-226, it is mentioned that, a few days earlier, an incredibly powerful vessel had broken into the compound and turned the place inside-out before vanishing without a trace, significantly weakening the defences of the [=FeX=] Labs and giving the U.S.H.F. the window of opportunity they needed to steal the [=TMiG=]-226. Mid-game, you finds out who was responsible for the initial intrusion: [[spoiler:yourself. Through an unstable time warp, you were sent to that point in the past and had no choice but to blast your way through the [=FeX=] Labs in order to return to the present time.]]

* TheDragon: There is a certain vessel in the game called the Dragon by WordOfGod. While it doubles up as an EliteMook as you see several of these vessels throughout the game, it also shows up just before [[spoiler:you confront Xoxx at the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon]].

* TheEndOrIsIt: In ''Gold'', the credits roll as your ship wanders [[spoiler:the remains of the universe after you confront Xoxx at the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon. As the credits finish, you fly past a restaurant, and discover a way back in time.]]

** The only example of this in the original game, as well as the first such mission in ''Gold'', has you tow a fighter frame out of the [=FeX=] labs; you fail the mission if the frame is destroyed by enemy fire and/or collision with the scenery.
** Besides the above example, ''Gold'' has two more escort missions. The first of these is a subversion as the research vessels you are escorting are immune to enemy fire and collisions; the second one involves an object resembling a giant beer keg that takes up ''the entire back part of your field of view'' and plays this trope straight.

** Starts with the [=DaisyCutter=] as an entry-level weapon, which leads into heavier rotary guns like the Hammerhead, further leading to the [[UpToEleven Hydra Machine Gun, whish is ''seven'' gatlings bolted together.]]

** ''Gold'' adds the radio tower on Planet Plop and a videotape with the latter as a plot device. The radio tower is further described in the TheParalyzer entry further down this article. As for the videotape, the expaned plot in ''Gold''' has it that this tape causes anyone watching it to go mental. Xoxx has his eyes on this tape because [[spoiler:he intends to use the mental energy expelled from countless inhabitants across the planet, as a direct result of watching this tape, to power the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon]].

** One section of the [=FeX=] labs features a gigantic gun named The Dictator Quantum Devastator, with an additional warning under its name plate that states "Do not touch under any circumstances!". [[spoiler:Turning it on reveals that it is actually a WaveMotionGun that fires a beam so powerful, it effortlessly pulverises ''five layers of Hulk Panzer'' and one-shots your ship regardless of your equipment if you are hit by it.]]

** A handful of weapons from the original game are supplemented, not replaced, with upgraded counterparts in ''Gold'', the most prominent example being the La Fontaine. It is the cheapest and weakest gun you can buy, and even with full upgrades, it has subpar range and damage. Even the first three words in its promotional description says it: "Cheap toy gun". In ''Gold'', the La Fontaine Mk. II is made available for purchase towards the last few missions, which costs 4,100,000 credits for the base model and is one of the strongest and most expensive guns in the game. Other guns that received this treatment include the VX Masterblaster (supplemented with the VX-Quattro) and Tsunami Wave Generator (supplemented with the Tsunami BETA).
** In an overlap with BoringButPractical, the Daisycutter Mk. II in the original game was a decent early-game machine gun with an equally decent area of fire when fully upgraded but cannot match up to the damage rate of any of the late-game guns. In ''Gold'', it is directly replaced with the Daisycutter Mk. III, which can be further upgraded to do damage equal to some of the more powerful guns in the game, albeit with a reduced area of fire compared to its maxed out Mk. II counterpart.

''Jets'n'Guns'' (also called ''Jets N Guns'' or ''[=JnG=]'') is a HorizontalScrollingShooter created by [=RakeinGrass=], released in 2004.

A sequel is now in the early works, after a long period of DevelopmentHell.

The official web page for the game is located [[http://www.rakeingrass.com/game_jetsnguns.php here]], and the soundtrack for both the original game and ''Gold'' can be located and downloaded for free [[http://machinaesupremacy.com/albums/jetsnguns-soundtrack/ here]] and [[http://machinaesupremacy.com/albums/jetsnguns-gold-ost/ here]]. ''Gold'' also has [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/262260/ a Steam page]] following a successful application on Greenlight.

* AbnormalAmmo: Several weapons fall under this category, ranging from less common but still somewhat unusual things like acid and chemical gas to things like [[EdibleAmmunition tomatoes]], superheroes, ''semi-intelligent ghosts'' and '''miniature temporary universes'''.

You start off with a few credits and a small ship with only a basic gun equipped. In every level, you gain points and credits from killing enemies. Certain levels also contain checkpoints that, once reached, allows you to resume from that part of the level, with your ship in the state it was in when you reach that checkpoint, until you abort the mission completely. At the end of every level, you can spend whatever credits you have on purchasing and/or upgrading equipment, guns, and additional weaponry such as missiles and bombs.

In December 2006, [=RiG=] released an expansion, called ''Jets'n'Guns Gold'', which has since replaced the original ''Jets'n'Guns'' in every regard. ''Gold'' featured additional ships, levels, weapons and even a reworked ending.

* AbnormalAmmo: Everything fades in comparison to the Omnigun, which fires '''universes'''. By a strange coincidence, it also [[GameBreaker kicks ridiculous amounts of ass]].
** Another almost equally abnormal weapon is a ''cloning machine that fires superheroes''.
** A fair amount of weapons can fall under this category. Some weapons shoot acid, [[FireBreathingWeapon fire]], [[EdibleAmmunition tomatoes]], ''semi-intelligent ghosts''...

* ATasteOfPower: The ''Gold Edition'' features a few weapons labelled as "Trial Versions" of more powerful weapons. These special weapons are located at the start of certain levels where they, upon your first visit, are ''far'' stronger than any weapon you can possibly afford, despite their description claiming that they are only a basic version of the real thing. The catch? These guns will expire after a limited number of shots, and you cannot sell them for any extra credits.

* BackFromTheDead: The Jet-Pack Rescue System turns your character into this. When your hull integrity reaches 0, your ship will blow up, but lo and behold as you watch your hull integrity suddenly shoot back up to 100, and you emerge from the explosion flying on an ejector seat with an EmergencyWeapon in the form of a small gun. [[UselessUsefulSpell Not as useful as it sounds]], given that anything strong enough to destroy your ship is likely to destroy the enhanced Jet-Pack too, [[NotCompletelyUseless but]] it ''can'' speed things up by saving you a trip back to the previous checkpoint or the start of the level, especially if your ship was destroyed near the end.

* TheBadGuyWins: In the original ''[=JnG=]'', [[spoiler:Xoxx fires the cannon and destroys the universe]]. You blow up his vessel, but he escapes in his backup time washing machine to the past where he will enslave the world. You somehow survive [[spoiler:the destruction of the universe]] and are left wandering the remains of it [[spoiler:until you accidentally get sucked into a time warp and end up at ... [[NewGamePlus the start of the game, this time with everything you bought]]]].
** In the ''Gold Edition'', [[spoiler:you find yourself flying past a restaurant. You enter and meet an old man who tells you about not thinking four-dimensionally. That inspires you to upgrade your ship and enable it to travel time, giving you another chance to chase after Xoxx and ultimately destroy him.]]

* BigCreepyCrawlies: One level involves flying (and shooting) through the nest of spaceship-sized bugs.
* BonusLevel: There are many bonus levels scattered throughout the game.
* BoringButPractical: Daisycutter Mk III (one of the ''first'' weapons you get), when upgraded, becomes a cost-effective mid-end weapon.

* BossSubtitles: There are three of them; the latter two are unique to one boss each in the ''Gold Edition''.

* BrickJoke: In the early-game, when the U.S.H.F. breaks into the [=FeX=] Labs to steal the [=TMiG=]-226, it is mentioned that, a few days earlier, an incredibly powerful vessel had broken into the compound and turned the place inside-out before vanishing without a trace, significantly weakening the defences of the [=FeX=] Labs and giving the U.S.H.F. the window of opportunity they needed to steal the [=TMiG=]-226. Mid-game, the player finds out who was responsible for the initial intrusion: [[spoiler:themselves. Through an unstable time warp, the player was sent to that point in the past and had no choice but to blast their way through the [=FeX=] Labs in order to return to their present time.]]

* ClimaxBoss: Xoxx's backup time washing machine in the ''Gold Edition''.

* CommercialPopUp: Happens twice [[spoiler:during the Carnage TV Fun Centre mission]] in the ''Gold Edition''.
* CreatorCameo: One level has the player gatecrashing a Music/MachinaeSupremacy concert.

* TheEndOrIsIt: In the ''Gold Edition'', the credits roll as your ship wanders [[spoiler:the remains of the universe after you confront Xoxx at the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon. As the credits finish, you fly past a restaurant, and discover a way back in time.]]
* EscortMission: There is one such mission in the original, and three in the ''Gold edition''. Rest assured that you will not forget them in a hurry because of what you're escorting.
* FinalBossNewDimension: The final boss fight of the ''Gold Edition'' takes place [[spoiler:in time]].
* FragileSpeedster: The Crocker Cr-2 in the ''Gold Edition''. Its deficiencies in terms of its small heat sink and fairly subtle hull are noted on its purchase screen, and its description even ''provides advice on how to avoid overheating''. It is, however, one of the more agile and faster ships in the game.

* GatlingGood: Starts with the [=DaisyCutter=] as an entry-level weapon, which leads into heavier rotary guns like the Hammerhead, further leading to the [[UpToEleven Hydra Machine Gun, whish is ''seven'' gatlings bolted together.]]
** Gatling guns are also the weapon of choice for several enemies and bosses.

* GimmickLevel: Some missions restrict you to having a certain ship, either modifying/restricting your weapons loadout (often by forcing you into a spacesuit/scuba suit), or for one level, having you [[PassThroughTheRings partake in a racing course]].
** In the Gold Edition, two levels require you to collect items throughout the level to fill out a research bar.
* HarderThanHard: The highest difficulty setting that the player can set a campaign to at the very beginning is "Hard". However, upon completion of the game on "Hard" difficulty, the NewGamePlus starts on the next difficulty level, "Nightmare". This cycle goes on, from "Total Mayhem", then "Inhuman" ... right up to "Mission Impossible".

* HyperspaceArsenal: The Weapon Set switcher allows you to change up weapons/configurations on the fly. That means you can cram ''multiple full loudouts'' on your ship, although you have to switch between them.

* InfinityPlusOneSword: The [=TMiG=]-310 Atomic Emu has incredible stats and a mind-blowing number of weapon slots, including up to ''[[MoreDakka five]]'' forward mounted weapons. It's only available at the last level, [[HarderThanHard but you'll need it for those higher difficulties]] [[NewGamePlus once you complete the game]].
* JackOfAllStats: The [=TMiG=]-226 Koala Killer is this in the ''Gold Edition''.
* JokeItem: The Punisher, which is [[spoiler: a baseball bat that you can get by shooting down a flying toilet somewhere near the end of the game]]. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the game, but it's hardly worth using because of its ridiculously short range.
** It is also [[TwentyPercentCooler 37.182% cooler]].
* KarlMarxHatesYourGuts: Averted. Anything purchased from the shop can be sold back at full value, so you're free to mess around with various weapon and upgrade combinations in between levels.

* KineticWeaponsAreJustBetter: This is actually an ''official game tip'' for players who experience overheating issues.

* MightyGlacier: The L.E.D. Zeppelin in the ''Gold Edition''. It has the same heat sink as the [=TMiG=]-310 Atomic Emu, allowing it to comfortably mount and fire several [=BFGs=] at once. However, it is as slow as the speed of the living dead.
* MindControlDevice: The [=RemCon=] can be used on hostile [=RoboTrucks=] and rockets, causing them to work for you rather than being obstacles to avoid.
** The ''Gold Edition'' also adds the radio tower on Planet Plop and a videotape with the latter as a plot device. The radio tower is further described in the TheParalyzer entry. As for the videotape, the ''Gold Edition'''s plot has it that this tape causes anyone watching it to go mental. Xoxx has his eyes on this tape because [[spoiler:he intends to use the mental energy expelled from countless inhabitants across the planet, as a direct result of watching this tape, to power the Lord Chaos Mk. I quantum cannon]].

* NoEnding: The original game was this, with NewGamePlus slapped onto it.
** [[spoiler:The Gold version has an ending where the player finally confront and kill Xoxx, but the scene loops back to the very beginning, implying that there is no such thing as RippleEffectProofMemory and the player character lost his memory of the game's story]].

* TookALevelInBadass:The La Fontaine is the cheapest and weakest gun you can buy in the game, and even with full upgrades, it's only half-decent. Even the first three words in its promotional description says it: [[spoiler:Cheap toy gun]]. Come the ''Gold Edition'', and the La Fontaine Mk. II, which costs 4 100 000 credits for the base model and is one of the strongest and most expensive guns in the game.
** In the original game, the Daisycutter was in its Mk. II variant and, with full upgrades, became a decent early-game machine gun with an equally decent area of fire but cannot match up to any of the late-game guns. The ''Gold Edition'' upgrades the Daisycutter to its Mk. III variant, which can be further upgraded to do damage equal to some of the more powerful guns in the game, albeit with a reduced area of fire compared to its maxed out Mk. II counterpart.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: There are ''so'' many ways to maim enemies in this game. Ships that you shoot out from the sky will fall towards the ground and destroy everything below it, and radioactive waste and fire will instantly disintegrate any unprotected person foolish enough to wander near the source. Shockwaves generated by the Cauldron bomb, beer tankers, or even the ground collision protection device that you can install on your ship, will rip through everything within their effective radius. If you leave blood and gore enabled in this game, expect every living organism you destroy to spew blood [[spoiler:or green ooze, in the case of zombies in the ''Gold Edition'',]] from every orifice, or otherwise be blown to bits, regardless of whether you pulverise them with a WaveMotionGun, or [[RammingAlwaysWorks fly into them]]. There's even a secret level in the ''Gold Edition'' where you get to mow down an entire army of poorly-armed spammers. And then we have some weapons that were ''made'' for this trope...
-->"''This terrible gadget was designed especially for use against living beings.''"\\

* WaveMotionGun: The Chroniton Riffle in the original. The ''Gold Edition'' of ''[=JnG=]'' adds the Armageddonator.

* VulgarHumor: The original had the subtitle "CADDISH UNFAIR ATTACK OF XOXX'S STELLAR BASTARDS" printed right below the title on the front cover, and the game featured a teddy bear item that bleated "Blast those bloody bastards!" when pressed. Countries that do take offence to the vulgarities censor them by replacing all instances of the first with "MANIACS" and all instances of the second with "gangsters". The ''Gold Edition'' removes the subtitle completely, but leaves the teddy bear intact.
* ZergRush: The Swarm gun is essentially based on this trope.

* SwirlyEnergyThingy: The Time Portal [[spoiler: that dumps you in the [=FeX=] labs. In the original game, said SwirlyEnergyThingy also dumps you back to the beginning for the NewGamPlus]]

* GatlingGood: Starts with the DaisyCutter as an entry-level weapon, which leads into heavier rotary guns like the Hammerhead, further leading to the [[UpToEleven Hydra Machine Gun, whish is ''seven'' gatlings bolted together.]]

* OrbitingParticleShield: Also an add-on, which can be upgraded to a maximum to four orbiting particles.

* SecretCharacter: The [[spoiler: [[FunWithAcronyms L.E.D]] Zeppelin and Airworm Helicopter]], requiring the player to hack or destroy specific devices in order to obtain. There are also several hidden weapons (ranging from the [[JokeItem Punisher]] to the [[GameBreaker Omnigun]] scattered throughout the game.

** A fair amount of weapons can fall under this category. Some weapons shoot acid, [[EdibleAmmunition tomatoes]], ''vengeful souls''...

There is an announcement in late 2016 said A NEW GAME FROM RAKE IN GRASS! in the official web page. it is the first footage of Jets'n'Guns 2 in there YouTube Channel [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ugcz6vxEjpI]].
