I'm glad to see that the people here didn't make you stop playing this game.

Aim for the top of the scoreboard!

So, you're going to continue bumping this thread with every inch of progress you make?

I dare to disagree.
Sure, it looks pretty- but that's all there is.
Your heli moves way too slow and its pure luck finding out where exactly your hitbox is. The lack of popcorn enemies is also unpleasant.
And i feel like the heli is underpowered. It's like a classical euroshmup.

I've never had any trouble with the movement speed in the game. It's very precise and the helicopter never feels out of control.

The easiest thing to look at is the center of the rotor. It's a brownish-grey pentagon right in the center of the ship model.

A constant stream of popcorn enemies would potentially fuck up the scoring system... you wouldn't want to shoot at them anyway.

The main shot is perfectly balanced damange-wise. If you're taking a long time killing things, then you need to learn to use the rocket-pod.

I don't get a chance to play the game much but I do try to play every day. as for all of you who think I'm setting my sights a little too high I'm going to at least get the highest score on this forum.
