Overview

This 1K game was originally developed for the 2004 Minigame Compo where it became 1st. It then became part of the SWOOPS! minigame collection. Since I couldn't find any restrictions on the website, I decided to submit it for the Hackaday 1kB Challenge again. Feel free to reject it. :) Guide your helicopter through an endless cave, avoid all obstacles and score as many points as possible. Have far can you get? Well, it doesn't get simplier than this: To control the helicopter's height, just press the firebutton button. Oh, and don't crash into the cave. :-) Actually it's a little bit harder, because there is a lot of inertia in the helicopter movement. So be careful when pressing the button or you will find yourself sticking in the upper cave border soon. But I am sure you will get used to it very soon. Also try to evade the walls, which will get larger and move faster the further you proceed into the game. A good timing is essential there. Learn how to use the inertia! The display shows your score and is color coded: During the game: White non-random, stationary walls game Green random, stationary walls game Magenta non-random, moving walls game Blue random, moving walls game Red new highscore! After the game the score switches: Red highscore other colors last score There is only one highscore for all game variations.
