Very good a capella audio! I especially liked the win sfx, the zap/death sfx, and the "I will kill you". It was a little confusing what to do at first. Maybe have an arrow pointing to the guys, and then to the base, so I know where to go? Very fun game! Good job!

The a capella on this one was really fun. I felt like the hit box for the helicopter was a bit unforgiving on the top, it just feels like there should be a slight amount of leeway because of the perspective on the tail, but I love the mechanics and design!

Man, a lot of these sound effects/foley are going to be living in my head rent free for a long time. So good.

Sick stuff, good work!

A simple but really fun game! I played through it and enjoyed the sounds, you did a really good job on it!

I love Choplifter so I had fun with this one.

The a cappella sounds always make me laugh. They were well done here.

The laser was quite a challenge, such a tight space to maneuver! One piece of feedback is that I don't know how many prisoners I've already rescued, only the total.

Congratulations.

Great little game. Reminds me of my favorite flash game, Motherload. Similar flying and such. Appreciate the A Capella

The sound effects/music were very well done and I had a lot of fun! Very satisfying gameplay all around :)

This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I voted for the acapella theme. It was quite fun! I got stuck on the second level because I kept losing health in the tight passages or dying against the electro-fence things, so by the time I got to the second set of enemies they toasted me with one hit. A great addition to this would be some sort of healing mechanic. Great entry!

Developer

Thank you very much! The healing was in my head, I wanted to add it but then the time ran out! If I see interest I'll be happy to add this and other contents!

Put a huge smile on my face the moment I booted it up and heard the theme in A Cappellal! Had a fun time with the game, thanks so much for taking on the wildcard! It made for a wonderful experience.

Developer

Thank you very much!!! :-D
