Visually this looks great and I know how hard flight sims are. You really did get a succinct and smooth feeling of flying up in the sky over a city. A bit too easy to crash before I’m able to do any of the missions, needm ore practice.

It’s just a bit too hard to control. Took me a while to figure out that the mouse is used for tilt. This isn’t in the description anywhere so at first I was confused when I took off and the helicopter rotated sideways and crashed. After a few crashes I moved my mouse and found it’s because the mouse cursor was sitting off to the side.
\nWhile I still quite liked the game, my feedback for tweaks would be:\nExplain that mouse is used to steer\nUse mouse movement for steering not just cursor position\nMake momentum a little more lenient so it’s easier to navigate and land.
\nStill really liked it though! Well done.

\nI’m clearly not an helicopter pilot, and not patient enough with the controls to fly and land without crashing. (Though after a very slow and careful flight, I did manage to bring one car accident back to the hospital)
\nIt would be great if the controls were a bit more lenient and the accident smoke a bit more pronounced (even almost on the location according to the minimap I had trouble spotting the car)
\nWill the injured drivers actually die if I take too long to get to them?

But flight controls are definitely not my cup of tea, after a few crashes I managed to collect a car & and then crashed again.

\nFun but hard to control once you got low down. At first I ignored the mouse and was wondering why I was flying to the left all the time.
\nSounds are good, like a good flight sim with the lights and sounds.
\nI did not resuce anyone, got near the smoke but was not sure how to collect the people.

\nThe controls are quite reasonable. i got used to the controls pretty immediately.\nWell, getting used to is different from being able to control the thing. The physicality is quite apparent, and thrust control is hard. Also i haven’t got any training on landing, let alone making it soft.
\nI originally wanted to request being able to look down, so that i can aim where i am landing, and then i realized that I can zoom in with the radar. That was what helped me land on the helipad accurately.
\nI think if you add some firewatch-like story, and polish the game a little bit, you can easily put it on steam.
\n“Steam game in 13kb” sounds like a nice soundbite!

I have “search as you type” enabled in my browser, so every time I press a key it brings up the search. You should call .preventDefault() for all keyboard events to prevent this.\nThe game also filled only a very small part of my screen (a height of 150px).
Great concept and look, but I could not figure the controls. Should have used capture mouse, imho.

\nThe intro is great, it makes you want to jump into the game directly.
\nI got a bit confused by the controls, probably because I was using a trackpad.\nIt’s good that you remind the player what the controls are when the game starts, but maybe you could keep them on the screen all the time? As they are quite complex, it allows the player to take their time trying everything!

\nI was only able to play with the post-compo version with the inverted Y - impossible for me with the compo version. The physics also didn’t seem to quite work how I’d expect for a helicopter but that might also have just been the controls.
\nI managed to land near a car (once) but nothing seemed to happen - not sure if I misunderstood something

The sounds are fitting, some music might have made the atmosphere even betters.
\nThe mechanics of flying a pretty hard, but enjoyable and polished.
\nIt wasnt clear to me how I could pick up the injured people. I landed inside the circle and nothing happened?
\nAlso when you crash to many times, the heli breaks. After that you cant do anything. A respawn or restart button would help here.
\nOverall awesome game, amazing visuals, great job!

The gameplay feeling is really smooth, while still being hard to steer, making it a very fun experience to play.
\nThis could serve as a basis or a test version of a future 3d helicopter game, in HTML 5, which is also impressive !
\nGreat job.

On firefox the performance was good but the game only used the top 10% of the screen for some reason. On Chrome I was getting about 0.5 FPS… Really unfortunate as the game looks cool and sounds technically impressive.
