Aftermath : My Little Rescue Helicopter Blog
7th February 2014
People often complain that my games look "too retro", and yet, this mostly-monochrome game with a seriously shitty sprite, is getting lots of attention.
.. You can't please everybody!

Seems to be going fairly well, and is relatively popular, but the exact same issue seems to be cropping up over, and over, and over and over again..

The helicopter only ever faces Right, and the planes only ever face Left.
"OMG!! It doesn't turn around!!"
"Why can't I turn round!?!"
"It should be able to turn!!!"
Paraphrased, but pretty much the general complaint.

I thought it was slightly more strategic if the player could only fight from the opposite direction. Having to fly backwards under the bad guys, whilst avoiding the landscape, just to shoot at them, seemed like a nice gameplay style.
*shrugs*
Can't please everybody..

You can Download My Little Rescue Helicopter here, now, and whinge about the lack of turning around, later.
