nice game as already said :3

great work, I love these seemingly simple, but addictive games...

my only comment would probably be the music... it doesn't quite fit the "classic arcade feel", I would think that an older style MIDI type music score would suit it better.. (maybe ride of the valkyries . ..such a cliche.. but funny anyway..)

but, it definitely has the old school look and feel.. you should definitely finish it off.... well done.

This is nice!
I have done some fixes to that game.
I saw the animations of heli down and heli up and I noticed that you don't use them for anything and did this:

heli - draw actor:

Code: Select all

if (yvelocity < 1 && yvelocity > -1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "heli", FORWARD);
}

if (yvelocity < -1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "heliU", FORWARD);
}

if (yvelocity > 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "heliD", FORWARD);
}


I added this code to it, and now when helicopter goes down it changes animation to go down and same for going up.
And buttons in menu have an error. Look at the upper left corner of them.
You can do this:

Open the files in paint - change the attributes width and height to be 2 more than before. And then place the picture in the middle of the white borders. - Save your file.

Now ge understand white to be the transparent color not you green what it was before. Now the buttons are perfect.

You have done great job!
