Wow, frontpage! Many thanks Tom, cheers from France ^^

[UPDATE #2, 2010/09/03]
New fixed version including last level bug, gunpoint stage tank bug. We also increased the pixel interval from object to target frame.

[UPDATE #3, 2010/09/06]
version 1.01, it should fix all reported issues (freezing, levels not loading. black screens)

[UPDATE #4, 2010/09/07]
version 1.02

And don't forget to UPDATE your FLASH player to VERSION 10 (else do not complain about issues) and avoid Internet Explorer!

Super Clássico! eu dou o numero 7 da sorte para dar estrelas. não me surpreende que ele tenha sido recriado no emulador da newgrounds, eu nem sei ao certo porque o povo gosta.

The stupid driver in the evo on level 8 has no damn patience whatsoever. I HAVENT EVEN FINISHED THE BRIDGE YET BUT HE STILL DRIVES

I did not learn to use the catapult, it much simpler just to fling the dynamite. The cargo ship leaving was a heart breaker. Running out of fuel just as your getting that last piece to nudge. The name of your game is a bit dull. Maybe something like "Heli hooks". Being able to upgrade and a pad to repair would be better too.
I was expecting a helicopter game where you pick up prisoners and deliver them to safety from enemy tanks. This was so much better!
The idea of trying to get the player master coordinating two hooks was brilliant!
The fire that spreads was interesting too, I think you got the right balance there.
I liked the music, especially the lyric one. Even though no matter what you have in games like this any music gets repetitive.
Thank you for creating this game. I think you have a good idea here. More levels and bonus levels.

Concept is excellent.
Art is average.
Sounds are..average,poorly chosen but not horrible.
Controls are good,they are tricky at the start but later on your brain will memorise and get used with it.
Game mechanisms are a bit poor though..the physics works,but it has its flaws.Having ANY object that collides with you cause damage is stupid,even your hooks cause damage.Damage should be only when you hit something while flying,not with your hooks.
The game shouldnt be so frustrating too.
Level 9 for example...i took a lot of time to reach the ship since it kept going away...and since you cant repair your goddamn helicopter,i exploded just before i had one crate left to put.JEEZ,i ragequitted after level 9.
Good concept,some good levels but POORLY crafted.Theres a ton of music and sound effects out there and you get the old ones?Same applies with art...just textures.
My opinion is,this game is just a "experience" one,you didnt really aim for a 100% game here.

"It sails away...!"

Can't see how you people don't like the soundtrack. Especially the first one. Feels like I'm in a Korean tampon commercial. lolz
