Vietnam helicopter action.
A Vietnam helicopter action game. You fly the gunship, land to pick up the people you came for, and keep an eye on fuel, ammunition and armour.
The game
How it plays
You fly one helicopter over a big open map of jungle, river and firebases. Each mission is a list of jobs: knock out the anti-aircraft guns, hit a convoy on the trail, bring a downed crew home.
The ground shoots back. You watch your fuel, ammunition and armour, and top up at the firebase. To pick people up you have to land, and then you are a target sitting still.
Play it alone and you can take control of all three helicopters, and order the others to escort you or pick people up. Play with friends in three-player online co-op, or on one screen with split-screen co-op.
It is set in the same war as Crimson Haze, and built on the same ground.
Early footage
Captured from the game as it is today.
The firebase
Three helicopters wait on the pad. Walk up to one and take it.
Landing
Set down on clear ground and the people you came for run to you.
Anti-aircraft guns
Flak, machine guns and rockets. Take them out before you bring the slow helicopters in.
Missile warning
When a missile is fired at you, the game says so. Turn hard.
Three helicopters
-
Gunship
Attack
Fast and armoured. Nose gun, rockets and missiles for guns, convoys and bunkers.
-
Transport
Carry
Heavy, with room for troops, the wounded and supplies. It cannot fight back much, so it needs an escort.
-
Scout
Find
Quick and fragile. It spots hidden guns and camps, and marks targets for the gunship.
In development
Hot LZ is in development for Windows and Mac. We will put a link here when there is somewhere to get it.
