Description

Splat is a parachute jumping game. The player will fall to the ground and must open the parachute at the last possible moment. The player can choose his own terminal velocity and gravity, or can let the computer decide. In the latter case the computer will pick one of the eight inner planets, the moon or the sun's characteristics. The computer will give a height and the player must respond how many seconds to wait until opening the parachute.

Average score: 4.0 out of 5 (based on 1 ratings)

Quick text game to practice a little math for skydiving.

The Good
It has several user-set variables, ensuring the game doesn't stay static during play. The author has a sense of humor, which is always appreciated.

The Bad
I couldn't find anything I didn't like.

The Bottom Line
Humorous take on terminal velocity calculations where you can splat if you don't open your chute in time.
