Also known as: Mr. Heli

Publisher: Firebird Software · Developer: Probe Software · Genre: Shooter

Mr. Heli takes place in the year 2999, where the sinister Mr. Muddy threatens your homeworld. Luckily, you pilot a heavily armed combat helicopter and battle through four side-scrolling levels – mostly from left to right, but with some directional variation. Each stage ends with a boss fight. Along the way, you'll encounter not only enemies but also blocks that serve two purposes: some release crystals to increase your cash, while others display a weapon and its price – if you have enough credits, you can buy it on contact. If your energy bar is depleted, you lose a life and all your money.
