About this game
SkyRoads turns a journey through space into a driving puzzle. Your craft follows narrow roads suspended above alien landscapes, with walls, tunnels and missing sections interrupting the route. There are no rival drivers: reaching the far end with fuel and oxygen remaining is the challenge.
Speed changes the distance covered by a jump, so the quickest approach is not always the safest. Surface colors also matter. The original help identifies supplies, boost, sticky, slippery and burning tiles, giving each stretch of road its own hazards and opportunities.
Choose Start and select a road with the arrow keys and Enter. Up accelerates, Down slows the craft, Left and Right steer, and Space jumps. The main-menu Help option shows the controls and surface types before you set off.
This is BlueMoon Software’s complete 1993 DOS game, later released as freeware. All thirty roads are available; this is not the earlier six-road shareware sample. The original files and distribution notice are preserved.

Quick tips
Begin with Red Heat, Road 1 to learn the relationship between speed and jump distance.
Look ahead before accelerating: a long jump can carry you past a safe landing.
Check Help for the surface colors; a strip that looks like a shortcut may slow or damage your craft.
