How it works & what to expect
This is the original DOS release running in a WebAssembly build of DOSBox. The package is small (~600 KB), so it boots in seconds. Levels are short and restart instantly, which is just as well — you will crash a lot. Fuel and oxygen both drain as you drive, so hesitation costs as much as recklessness.
Playing tips
Jump distance scales with your speed at takeoff, so most levels are about setting up the right approach speed rather than reacting quickly. Fuel and oxygen both drain as you drive — hesitating costs as much as being reckless.
Why it's free
Bluemoon Interactive released SkyRoads (and the Christmas Special) as freeware, and it has been distributed at no charge ever since. There's no shareware episode split here — what you're playing is the full game.
