True Axis’s zany acrobatic racer Jet Car Stunts has jumped, barrel rolled, and loop-de-looped its way from iPhone to Android, and is now available to download from the Marketplace.

The game is a mix of racing and platforming, as you navigate 36 colourful tracks through careful cornering and mad leaps through the air. 25 of those stages focus on platforming, where just getting to the end of the course alive is reason enough for celebration. A further 11 are Time Trial tracks, pushing you to finish before a timer runs down.

Plus, having a vehicle that's a mutant halfbreed, a cross between a car and a jet, lets you manoeuvre your vehicle in-air, and drift down to a safe landing. It’s all controlled through your droid’s responsive accelerometer controls, as well as some on-screen buttons.

Once you’ve racked up some high scores, and learnt the intricacies of the game’s stages, you can submit your scores to the online leaderboards through OpenFeint, upload replays to show off your best times and gun for achievements.

Jet Car Stunts is out now, on the Android Marketplace, for $2.
