Stiff control that aren't very satisfying, could have been a nice little game with just more polish in general in all areas. Cool use of the theme.

It's fun and easy to understand. The graphics are nice. The gameplay, as a classic shooter, is quite good but it's frustating having to go back to the beginning of the stage every time. But good job anyway, it's a nice game.

I agree with @azziliz that I had a tough time getting through the first level, since it's not clear if there are any extra helipads to re-gain health. The aiming was a bit fiddly but I find that's all just part of the challenge. :helicopter:","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Tero Pulkkinen","author_uid":"1000473","time":"2017-08-02T08:38:02Z","epoch":1501663082,"modified":1501663082,"text":"nice helicopter movement. explosions worked too, and you can even move barrels with the copter.

The game itself was a bit too repetitive too me and kind of tedious having to fly all the way to the beginning of the level to refuel - some more helipads would've helped. It was also frustrating that I blew up even though according to the energy bar I still had some left. Also, the camera likes to lag behind the chopper which means I can't see what's in front of me.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Flaterectomy","author_uid":"1003398","time":"2017-08-05T19:58:19Z","epoch":1501963099,"modified":1501963099,"text":"I finally got around to repay your comment on my game. :) Let's get you to 20 ratings!\n\nThe snaredrums at the start instantly made me think A-team more than general military, but that's because I am a product of the 80s. :laughing: The game looks good visually, the style is quite appealing. At first I didn't pick up on the difference between my own troops and the enemy soldiers, but that resolved pretty quickly. \n\nAiming was quite hard. I assume this was the intended challenge, but because of overshooting my targets I kept having to back up and try again, which didn't make things feel very fluid. The alarm sound is pretty shrill-sounding. I get that alarms *should* attract attention, but it came off a little too harsh for me.\n\nAll in all pretty fun for a while, but some room for improvement left.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"abductedPlatypus","author_uid":"1009467","time":"2017-08-08T19:35:06Z","epoch":1502220906,"modified":1502220952,"text":"I loved the graphics, the colours were nicely chosen, although I think the terrain would be greater with poly art too. To me the energy mechanic is fun and also a (exaggerated here) real world problem that is ofter skipped in helicopter games. It would be fun though if there was something to do as you are flying back. The enemy's were decently diverse and looked adorable. Also thats quite a few assets for 72Hs by yourself.

Visual style is quite interesting too. I had some troubles with the controls since you can't do both W+D to make a forward+up movement, but it could be a feature. And I'd recommend to put another helipad (or fuel bonus) after the second turret to reward a player and create some sort of a checkpoint.\n\nHere is my playtest:\n\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=q7npMPyDgdw","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TeddyDD","author_uid":"1037527","time":"2017-08-09T08:51:20Z","epoch":1502268680,"modified":1502268680,"text":"I won't copy others comments about controls I just say I like the idea of aiming fire by moving helicopter. It's nice game that require some work here and there. Graphics is nice but the helicopter is too simple compared to the background.
