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. (Version 1.2.4) | |

DNELSON Oh, not that I use them, but some of the "cheats" don't work anymore. They include: The only one that work is the "FPS", but I don't think I need that. What is it anyway? All I know of FPS is "feet per second", "frames per second", etc. Why would I need to know how fast I'm going, and how is that cheating? (Version 1.1) | |

ZEDONLINE Two reasons... one, cheats are usually meant for the developer to test the game, not the player. Two, the developer test bits will include useful bits of information for the developer, like frames per second. By making them all 'cheats', they are a small simple piece of code in the app that the developer doesn't suddenly have to maintain. (Version 1.2.1) | |

I still wonder why this turned shareware, though. Chopper 1.0.4 was almost as good as this. (Version 1.2.1) | |

DNELSON Why is it suddenly shareware? 1.0.4 was nearly as good and it was freeware! I wish it was still free, because now after I updated, it's giving me a limit of the numbers of more days I can play it. Great game, but soon I won't be able to play it. Oh, by the way, it's graphics are good, but the "crashes", people dying, and buildings falling down aren't realistic. (Version 1.1) | |

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. (Version 1.1) | |

SHOTGUNWEDDINGS Armor Alley it's not, but none the less equally as good! No problems with 10.4.9 and a MacIntel. Keep up the great work at Majic Jungle Software! (Version 1.0.4) | |

ANONYMOUS Great game but could you not use cmd-e for end game but esc. And for fullscreen use the same key for both leaving and entering fullscreen. Sometimes I pause the game and go out off full screen then when I come back to the game I have to press a different key. Once I tried to leave the game using cmd-f and it fired a rocket into a building. (Version 1.0.3) | |

ANONYMOUS Based on the old arcade game "Choplifter" from '83, reminds me good things. Very nice software ! (Version 1.0.3) | |

GOTAN Graphics, Music, sounds and gameplay: everything is polished and nice to look at. For a freeware, it kicks ass. It reminds me Silkworm or even older, Defender. It has a lot of fun, and the difficulty level increases in a smart way, adding new challenges without making it too hard. Excellent ! (Version 1.0.3) | |
