Trivia

BBC Micro version

Lunar Jetman was released for the BBC Micro as part of the Cosmic Battlezones compilation.

A caravan

To one of the issues of Crash magazine, an anonymous player sent a screenshot showing the moon buggy towing a trailer. It created a huge interest among other players that were highly intrigued and were desperately looking for an in-game hidden secret. Debate raged in letters pages and playground, as gamers boasted that they had seen it themselves. However, no matter how real this object may look like, it was a hoax, supposedly planted in the mag by one of the creators of the game. Years later, the game's code was entirely disassembled, showing no trace of such sprite file or data.
