The control scheme of this 3D and futuristic driving game is quite straightforward. If you have played driving games before, you shouldn't have any trouble with it and should come as second nature to you after a couple of sessions and practices: for basic movement, you will use your W, A, S, and D. The W button is for driving forward and accelerating. The A and D buttons, on the other hand, are for steering in the left or right direction. And last BUT not the least, the S button is for stepping on the brakes. Being a futuristic ride that it is, your car has a built-in weapons system. To make use of it, hit the Space Bar button. Or, alternatively, you can use the H, J, K, and L keys. That's about everything you need to know about the controls. Now, let's take a closer look at the game.

Jet Velocity 2 Walkthrough
A racing / driving game set in the future - this is Jet Velocity 2. The objective of the game is as simple as it could get: you are to race against AI-driven players and you need to take the top spots to unlock the next track and the other jet cars. Of course, there is also the ever-important machine shop where you can switch jet cars (3 of them are available right off the bat) and buy essential weapons for your ride, which will literally set the race track on fire!
Before you get your hands dirty and race, you should make sure that you have everything you need to help make it to the finish line. Trust me, it's NEVER easy! At the main menu screen, to buy weapon, go to the Ship Select option, then click on the Change Weapon Load.
There are 4 of them to choose from:
(1) first off, there is the small missile for 300 credits. While the most 'harmless' among the whole bunch of weapons that are yours for the taking, it can come quite handy.
(2) Next, we have the BIGGER brother of the small missile - BIG missile, which is available at 500 credits. It does what the small missile does, BUT it's BIGGER and nastier!
(3) Following that, there's the Firewave - the most expensive weapon available at 800 credits. BUT trust me, it's worth every single penny (or credit for that matter). If you want to light up the race track and your opponents, this is the weapon to check out.
(4) And finally, we have the Speed Boost. That's pretty self explanatory - when you use the Speed Boost, you get a HUGE... well, speed boost that allows you to leave the other racers blinded by your dust. But be careful, it could easily turn into a nightmare if you can't control your ride well. You will end up bumping and crashing to other jet cars and to the race track's walls. BUT then, if you are that bad at racing, it's still going to be a nightmare whether you misused a speed boost or not as the guys you are up against are REALLY good!
BUT what if you are penniless... or rather credit-less? No problem! The race tracks are teeming with power ups - speed boosts and missiles. Just grab them as you go and use them with the space bar button. Now, speaking about power ups and weapons, I must say that the control scheme for these is really sketchy. H, J, K, and L keys?! Come on! If the developer could change that, this game would be so much better, but it's not something I'll hold on my breath for. Aside from this minor caveat, this racing / driving game gets my recommendation - the 3D and futuristic design as well as the sound track very well blends with the fast paced game play.
