DESCRIPTION

Chopper is an action-packed, side-scrolling helicopter game. Complete your mission, and return to base, while avoiding enemy fire from tanks, bazooka-wielding mad men, and jets.

Chopper 1.2 adds ambient sound effects, adds new graphics, contains a completely new sound engine, and includes four new missions! In 'Beyond The Caves' you fly through tight gaps to rescue hostages on the other side. 'The Cliffs Have Eyes' plummets you multiple times into valleys surrounded by cliffs filled with enemy bazooka mad men.

Features:

  • 72 total missions across 3 difficulty levels
  • Addictive, adrenalin pumping game-play
  • Beautiful landscapes, weather effects, and explosions
  • Random elements each time you play
  • Machine Gun, Bombs, Rockets, Tanks, Jets
  • Universal Binary

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.2.4 adds a new option to skip the 'Beyond The Caves' level. Many have had problems completing this level. So if you're not up to the challenge, you can now skip it while sacrificing the points it might earn you.
REQUIREMENTS
  • 16MB graphics card or better
  • Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later.

ERIC00  I bought this game several months ago and it's still bloody addictive. At the 'hard' level I'm still trying to get past the mad scientist's bunker (okay, I'm not a good gamer), and I would love to see a cheat-- well, maybe not precisely a cheat-- that lets me "save game" at the level I'm on. This would make it less arcade-like, of course, but when I get a phone call or a colleague walks in and I have to shut down the game (and can't simply pause it) I hate to start all over again. Okay, just whining. But it's a lot of fun and well worth $10.

CALLE  A rather simple game but very, very well made. Gameplay and graphic has always been outstanding and Chopper was the only app I truly missed after switching to Intel.

In v1.1 though, graphics is almost too good and too detailed. I find it difficult to see enemies and civilians - actually the missions in where visibility is best are the night missions. Also, the four new levels does not really pop up among my favourite ones. I'd wish for a little differences in the design of the enemies - the more detailed they get, the more they look like clones of each other instead of individuals.

Still, Chopper is a fabulous game. If Chopper had been shareware before, I'd have paid already a long time ago.

JEGBERT  This game is great and lots of fun. However it always crashes since I updated to 10.3.6. I reinstalled and it still won't launch. It gets to the Windowed screen for startup and then crashes. Any ideas from anyone? Hopefully an updated will come soon.

DAVID FRAMPTON  Thanks for all of your kind comments. I'm currently working on Chopper2, a 3D version of Chopper. It's still a while off, perhaps even a year or so.

In the mean time, if you encounter text problems, install the font "arial" and it should appear.

Cheats are as follows:

'`' key to enable cheat mode, then 'k' for slow motion, 'j' to show FPS, '=' to skip a level, though this can sometimes cause a crash.

enjoy!

SHIPSTER  Excellent fun. Even my 5yr old daughter plays it, really good for her hand eye co-ordination. We play it together and get to about level 15. Highly recommend.
