This is very fun! I especially appreciated how realistic it was. I did find it really difficult, I wonder if a couple of dead-simple levels right at the beginning would have helped me learn what was going on a little bit better. I also found the controls screen a little confusing, I thought the left/right arrows to control thrust were indicating directions to spin instead of actual button presses hahaha. I loved the visuals though, and the music was fun too. The whole game had a great sense of humor, especially the dialogue at the end when you fail the last level. Great job!!

awesome game! i really liked the visual style of it and thought it was pretty fun. the controls took a bit to get used to but that's probably on purpose, i maybe would have like even just one more level before adding moving obstacles you also have to avoid. my main gripe was just not having A and D available as inputs because arrows made it really uncomfortable to play with how i usually play. also having the helicopter tilt so quickly felt awkward and made fine adjustments difficult. i also think that having the camera pan more in the direction you're going or be zoomed out would make it feel much better to play because sometimes obstacles would come from nowhere and also i flew over the goal on my first play and ran into the edge of the map and died. i do really like the failure cutscene though, and the audio was nicely done as well!
Crashed every helicopter, killed dozens of crew, lost every organ, bankrupted two companies, started a conspiracy, and shut down an entire method of aviation. Still got my license though.
Great use of the theme, and really well made overall. The only thing I would change is adding A and D as inputs for left and right.
Fun game and nice use of spinning in the controls of the game, I had the same idea for mine. I crashed every single time first playthough (almost made it a couple of times), the story that unveiled in the consequences was really interesting and funny, love the way you wrote it. "Spin to win, Spin to win, Spin to win...". I did find it a bit tricky to land without crashing, maybe having a accessibility setting to give a bit more leeway would help?
This is a very creative use of the theme! the visuals were really good as well. Controls got some time getting used to but otherwise it was very fun playing it.
Great job! I think the license you get for playing all levels is a smart touch :)
Genius that you made drawing ugly circles a skill issue :D
Maybe a small improvement so you see more of what's ahead could be when there is no ceiling to pan down the camera more so you see more of the ground?
Good game you got here! sick visuals, a bit loud audio but good audio, and fun overall gameplay! its just that you dont get enough thrust for every circle. Well done!
THIS IS SO SICK. As a new gamedeveloper i was so impressed by the draw circle to get thrust thingy, AND ALSO AMAZING VISUALS GOOD JOB
We played this on browser and there may be some bugs here that aren't in the download version - the consequences scenes don't seem to play and the helicopter never gets enough thrust. BUT love the concept, love the art and the soundtrack!
Spinning the mouse around is a neat idea but most of the time it feels really janky, Everyting else is great.
