Space Taxi is an action game for the Commodore 64 written by John Kutcher and published by Muse Software in 1984.
After each numbered platform has been successfully visited, the next customer will say "Up please", whereupon the gate at the top of the level will open.
Each level includes a different setting or theme (such as a treat-strewn candyland or a snowy winter landscape), and most have some special feature to hinder the player's job.
Some of the features include a table tennis ball bouncing across the level, snowflakes falling from the sky, a series of radar masts interfering with the controls, or teleports that send the player to a random location.
Passengers do not make allowances for pitstops, and their tip will continue to decrease as the player fills up.
After completing all levels, the player gets to a special "mystery level" with the message "Welcome to... MUSEWORLD" and three platforms, each with a figure relating to another Muse Software game: an ambulance representing Rescue Squad (1983, also John Kutcher), the Nazi soldier for Castle Wolfenstein (1981, Silas S. Warner), and a shooting robot relating to RobotWar (1981, Silas S. Warner).
