About

Spaß Taxi ("Spaß" is the German word for "fun") is a remake/clone of the original Space Taxi, where you need to bring passengers from one pad to another in mostly weird unnatural environments.


The gameplay

The 40 levels of Spaß Taxi offer a variation of challenges:

 Quick reactions
Avoid rockets and lasers or pass through moving gaps.

 Puzzles
Push the right buttons, find the shortest path or utilize teleporters.

 Learning
Memorize the passengers and their destinations, find out better (and quicker) ways to move, land or get your customers into or out of your car.

 Dexterity
Use the right amount of thrust to be fast, but not crash into stuff and quickly know which thruster to use while flying upside down in veteran mode.

Requirements

Spaß Taxi can be played with the keyboard, but is best played with a controller (currently only the XBox controller is supported, but others will follow).

It is looking best in a 16:9ish resolution at FullHD or above, preferring a multiple of it (e.g. 1920x1080, 1920x1200, 3840x2160).

Please check out the demo for Mac and Linux before buying to see if it runs on your machine, thank you!


Play the demo!

The demo contains 6 levels (plus tutorial) and is a great way to check out the gameplay, controller support and performance on your machine.

It also has a separate highscore list, so you can even compete with your friends here. :)


 

New and old

This version of the game takes the original concept and adds or changes a lot of things to get a whole new experience while retaining some of the retro feeling.


Rotation


The taxi can now rotate to get through narrow passages, avoid obstacles or even land on the ceiling.

 

Different types of passengers



There are those that fancy to loop the loop and go fast, but there are also those who will reveal their last meal if you rotate too much.

 

Health instead of lifes

The car has health (or integrity) and you can repair it while parking at a repair station (which costs money) or by having a mechanic on board.
When there is nothing left to repair, you  can buy a new car if you have enough money.
