I grew up with C64 and Airowlf ;-) Fantastic game. Today, there are no such games... Your game looks OK ;-) Gives the same retro vibe. I decided to do my own (like you did!) version of AirWolf. OK, not exactly the same version, but I was inspired by the AirWolf. I jump off the retro style, and move an action to the modern 3D world. To be consistent with the original, I kept a 2D character, so as a result, my game is 2.5D. Moreover, I decided to get rid of shooting, but introduced more challenges in maneuvering. The title of my game is Rescue Heli RH407 and more recent version is on Steam (on itch is not updated one) - pls have a look and tell me how you like it (or not). Cheers!
I grew up with C64 and Airowlf ;-) Fantastic game. As a fan o the Commodore family, I have to admit that the C64 version was (is!) far better than Amstrad one ;-) And the original was released in 1984 by SEGA.

I played Airwolf on C64, not on Amstrad :P anyway, I love this game ;-) So decided to make my own version of it (modern one, in retro style but with moder twist). Check out my profile if you are interested ;-) Also: looking for Artist to make a music loops for my game - interested in collaboration? Cheers!
Airwolf C64 version was my best game ever ;-) Inspired by a game from my youth, decided to make my own, retro-inspired helicopter game - check up my profile here ;-)
nice one! I felt like a pilot of.... RC model! and that's good! Standing in a backyard, fighting with an imaginary enemies - it reminds me times, when I was a kid. And that's cool - I think there could be audience for that. A bit hard to aim, but plus for navigation (and an idea of not beeing crashed by groud). Hint: maybe an indicator, whrere the enemy is? a radar or something? Keep working, cheers!
Indeed - looks good... but what else? Basic player controller, no HUD, no equipment, no inventory, no story at all... no optimization... only big, fat textures :P nothing more.... at the moment, I hope so ;-) so keep working, will see how you progress. Best!
Good work! Kinda demanding, but gives fun after a bit of practice! I liked the most a way to control a heli - with a mouse buttons plus a keyboard. Pls consider my few remarks:
1) I tried three times before my first successful take off. Why three? In the "flight school" you haven't mentioned abt 1,2,3 keys to start the engine! Only 'c' key, which apparent didn't work at all. So I couldn't fly. But I liked what I could see and tried once more, reading carefully the instructions - but still, not a single word abt 1,2,3 keys (as u see - I played on keyboard).
2) add instructions from "flight school" to the game page, could be usefull
3) technical one: you have prepared the project in Forward+ renderer, but my laptop with i915 for some reasons got some problems and I got only ~30 FPS! but I noticed this:
MESA-INTEL: warning: Performance support disabled, consider sysctl dev.i915.perf_stream_paranoid=0
Vulkan API 1.2.182 - Forward+ - Using Vulkan Device #0: Intel - Intel(R) UHD Graphics (CML GT2)
Thx, I made it! I got rescued one man! ;-) So why not to write about this on the main game page? Would be more clear for players.
And then went to the left, deep down and found another heliport. Nice it "saved" my position, yeah! But I know why is so hard to play - I play on web :P with super small window only. Pls consider Linux version, probably it's just one more click in Unity.
Anyway - for "some" reasons I like the idea. I think you could make it more playable, but this is your game, your shoes ;-)
Hi, looks interesting, but it's kinda difficult game. I tried several times and been killed in a few seconds. Did you consider lower the difficulty level? Colaiders are so sensitive! BTW: how to gen the guy on board? No luck so far... Best!
Looks good, welll done! My suggestion are: 1) add fullscreen mode, or 2) keep mouse cursor inside the game window, 3) change mouse cursor from default to customer one. Best!
