That's a good little chopper shooter.

I liked the graphics, even though for some reason it was a bit too much for my laptop (maybe an optmization issue). I have noticed that the muzzle flash direction is weird, looks like it doesn't match the actual shooting direction.

The helicopter feels floaty, especially the landing part. Might be a part of the challenge but I'd prefer it to be more snappy and controllable.

As for features, maybe making it necessary to fully land (and perhaps stay for a bit) in order to pick up/deliver presents would add some challenge? Right now you need to be mid-air at a certain height which feels a bit off.

Some nitpicks aside, good job on the game!

Hectic and fun. The visuals and particles were nice and who doesn't like destructible objects? Really liking the map design variety and amount of different models. I was enjoying exploring the map and seeing what was there. It was a bit hard seeing if I was hitting missiles and how far they were. I'd consider some UI highlighting items that can be collected and a win screen. I almost didn't know I had to land and touch presents to collect them.

I like the concept but it could use a bit more work. The movement controls were weird and seemed to be relative to the world and not the camera/heli, and I wasn't too sure what exactly I needed to do. I spent most of my time just blowing crap up before I even realized I was supposed to be delivering presents.

Overall I'd give it a 6 out of 10. Good work!
