It’s about time. Halfbrick Studios (makers of Fruit Ninja and other delicious titles) has brought Jetpack Joyride to Android. The game has seen large success on iOS and there’s a good reason why. It features fantastic controls and gameplay that never gets boring. You play as a character that steals a Top Secret jet pack and obviously, you go for a joyride.

While flying around you can hit power-ups which can turn you into a big mechanized machine, a jet-powered dragon, and tons of other fun stuff. It’s available for free, but the only downer is that you’ll need the Amazon Appstore installed to use it. Bummer.

Following success of those, Tim became a full time writer and editor for Droid Life, now spending his time on news articles, device reviews, producing videos, and much more.
