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.
