A Certain Copter Game...

Post by Tommy »

Well, hello everyone, I'm trying to find and play an old game that I played when I was around... I dunno, maybe 5 or 6 (I'm sixteen right now). The only copy I remember was on a floppy disk, but was erased after our new computer came along... I dunno how, but it happened. Sadly, I can't remember the name to this game, so here goes.

Anyhow, this copter game was old. The only graphics there were was brown and black. You basically control this little copter and destory all the forces on a screen scrolling (You know, hit the edge, comes to a new screen) map. The one very fun thing was getting out of your copter and doing very stupid stuff (Like jumping into dirt and digging your head in)... And the guy was a very, little stick figure, and the bullets were just simple dots. The sounds were simple bleeps and bloops really, nothing to comment there.

If anyone here has ever seen or heard of that type of game, I would be very grateful to find a place to get it from. If it is from a site you cannot list, I will be willing to show my E-mail. Unless of course, its forbidden to show your E-mail address on these forums.

Thanks once again, and I hope someone here has heard of such an old game.

Note: If this is not enough description, well I guess I'm out of luck then. That is all I can remember from my childhood playing this game.

definatly not, for these reasons

1)Your guy never came out of the chopper
2)The bullets were lines, NOT dots
3)The sound was a little more impressive than "bleeps and bloops"

I think the game your thinking about is a game called "Chopper"...it's a freeware game, I found it ages ago online to give to my cousin cause his parents (My Aunty and Uncle) had a whinge to me about playing doom and wolf3d in front of him!!

I cannot find Chopper for some reason, even though I tried looking. And Sopwith is not the game. The graphics were about that quality, but the color was only black and brown. Ok, the sounds probably were not JUST simple bleeps or bloops, but there was a sound for the chopper itself flying, and for shooting and stuff... I can't really remember, but I think maybe there was also fuel, so when you ran out, you could just jump out of the copter...

This game was probably older than me, since my dad had it, and it was on a floppy disk (Not the big 5" ones, though.)

So yeah. So far, no good. =/
