Choplifter 3 for SNES
Review #108
Choplifter 3
Choppy lifter
Gameplay
I remember playing this on the SMS at my cousins' house the first time I met them.
Rotate your copter with L and R.
Cycle thru special weapons makes it hard to find one and good luck remembering what they do.
Hard to hit the tiny enemies.
Infinitely spawning enemies which come back as soon as you leave the screen. Major gripe.
Massive slowdown issues.
Another big gripe is the ridiculous draw distance problems when going vertical. Makes the caves in stage two very difficult to navigate.
Fun distraction but I doubt I'll try to finish the game.
Level Design
Some cool ideas like underground caverns. Rescuing hostages gets old after a few levels. Would've preferred some variety in the mission objectives.
Theme
Helicopter shooting game. What's not to like?
Art Style
Very simple graphics with tiny sprites and minimal effects. Clean and crisp
Audio
Music is repetitive noise without a discernible composition. Sounds become grating after long
