Description

RECON COPTER is a strategy game where the player must engage armored enemy vehicles in a succession of missions in a high-threat environment. The player must manage to keep enough resource to survive and buy weapons which ranges and accuracy will help him to complete his missions. Careful use of radar and choice of location on the map are decisive.

"E" to switch weapons forward. "Q" to switch weapons backward
"R" to reload current active weapon.
“X” to repair.
Click left mouse button to shoot.

I am the author of the game. I developped with Flash and I am trying to find another platform to reimplement it.

(Final Part) ...Lastly, I don't understand the money system. Aside from being, like the UI, a bit small and hard to read, it doesn't show how much it costs to reload and repair. You also have to reload and repair in combat, which makes no sense, frankly. Best you put that in the briefing screen.
Anyway, for suggestions, a bit obvious: More choppers and weapons to buy and upgrade. Also, the main menu is a bit bland. Even a few extra vehicles would be nice; they don't need to move, only stay there. Finally, I'd recommend you tweak the title, possibly replace the "recon" with "battle" or "combat", as the AH-64 Apache, the attack helo portrayed in the game, isn't a recon helicopter, but an attack helicopter. Also, don't forget to capitalize the words of the title.
Anyway, that's all. The game seems great despite the issues, and I'd be willing to try a sequel or any of your other subsequent games. Good luck.

(Part 2) ...A briefing screen of sorts before each mission would be nice, too. No story stuff necessary, just details on what enemies you'll be facing and how many. Also, the ability to pan the camera without moving would be nice, considering you're flying a helicopter with a bird's-eye view of possibly the whole map. Furthermore, it hurts when you're flying to meet the enemy, only to be shot down by a single SAM or AA round just as the enemy appears on the edge of the screen. Also, the UI deserves a major tweak. It's too small and positioned at the bottom, rather inconvenient. I'd recommend you enlarge it, and move it to the top or top-left or -right, or maybe find a way to spread it around the screen, probably around the center, without being too confusing...

My rating's 2/5.
I love the concept; I find it particularly interesting as opposed to, say, a generic, arcade-y top-down shooter. I don't mind the graphics, though of course, they could be better, like many things in this game.
And then, there are the things that could be better. The "tutorial" is a bit too bland, in my opinion. I personally don't like having to read everything, let alone so much in such a game as this, without having that reading juxtaposed alongside actually playing and trying stuff out. I think others would feel the same way. It sucks to have to remember so much instead of learning stuff while actually controlling the craft in battle... (Part 1)
