5 itemsAbout the Game
Take control of a helicopter, that actually feels like a helicopter! There are no buttons to just go forward or backward. Instead, balance collective pitch, cyclic pitch, airspeed and altitude to maneuver the aircraft, feel its weight, inertia and momentum and use it to your advantage. The flight model is inspired by simulations, but tweaked to feel arcady, designed to make movement feel engaging, rewarding and fun.
Use the helicopters rotary cannon and guided missiles to engage enemies like different types of sentry turrets and drones. Destroy terrain with the missiles, use their explosion shockwaves to deflect enemy missles, ricochet bullets to shoot around corners or redirect your missiles with some well placed shots. There are even more hidden gameplay mechanics!
