The gameplay is highly praised for its fun and engaging flight mechanics, offering a unique experience with a light-hearted atmosphere and enjoyable shooting elements. While some players found the initial learning curve challenging, the overall mechanics are considered excellent, with a desire for more difficulty in the early stages. However, there are concerns about mouse sensitivity affecting aiming, which may hinder some players' experience.
“The flight mechanics are amazing and the simple yet challenging defense survival is brilliant!”
“This game is very fun, with great flight mechanics and enjoyable shooting.”
“Flying with great gameplay and a cool flight model to what sounds like chiptune music of a carnival's clown car is pretty unique indeed.”
“Both the mouse sensitivity for aiming the helicopter's guns and the back rotor's horizontal rotation speed are tied to the same slider and mechanic, so you're forced to aim with a very snappy mouse, which can be impossible for some people depending on their peripherals. Changing your DPI doesn't help either.”
“I could go for harder gameplay at the beginning, but starting with the 30mm is frustrating.”
“Don't be dissuaded if it takes a few tries to get used to the flight mechanics.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it obnoxious and ill-suited to the gameplay, suggesting that a better soundtrack could significantly enhance the experience. While a few appreciate its quirky charm, describing it as entertaining, many agree that it becomes repetitive quickly and detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.
“If this game had the right soundtrack, it would increase the overall experience by quite a bit.”
“Flying with great gameplay and a cool flight model to what sounds like chiptune music of a carnival's clown car is pretty unique indeed.”
“The only thing holding this game back is the music of all things.”
“I can’t even believe I’m saying this, but it’s true... the game is really good, but the music is just obnoxiously unsuited to this game.”
“Almost feels like this game was an experiment in someone saying 'the music won’t matter'... if so, the experiment was a success; it does matter.”

The story is centered around a childhood horror house in the woods, creating a sense of suspense and risk with each flight and mission. Players appreciate the varied mission types and objectives, although some express a desire for more structured gameplay and additional missions in future updates. Overall, the narrative adds depth to the gameplay experience, despite some frustrations with specific missions.
“I purchased it just because I liked reading the story about the childhood horror house in the woods.”
“I look forward to the updates that come and hope the developer adds more missions!”
“As frustrating as the helicopter mission in GTA: Vice City.”
“Every flight was a risk, every mission a test of my endurance.”
“This 'hordes' mode is very good; however, you can get more out of the game by implementing staggered missions and saving, all this using the same map.”

The graphics are described as simplistic yet clean, featuring a cartoon style that complements the game's arcade-like controls and satisfying physics. While the visuals are not highly detailed, they are deemed enjoyable and fitting for the gameplay, with suggestions for potential improvements in future iterations. Overall, the graphics serve the game well, but there is room for enhancement to elevate the experience further.
“Simplistic but clean cartoon graphics, arcadey sim-lite controls with varying difficulties and satisfying physics.”
“The price is very cheap and the graphics feel good, with a little more content and a little more polish overall I think it could be worth double or triple.”
“It's a very nice game mate, if one day you have the time and resources, try to make the same game in another engine such as Unreal Engine, such a simple game with a couple more details and some other game modes; moreover, in some graphics that are not low poly, you can sell like crazy for $10/€.”
“The graphics are very simplistic and low poly, which detracts from the overall experience. A more detailed engine could elevate the game significantly.”
“While the gameplay is enjoyable, the graphics feel outdated and lack the depth that modern games offer.”
“The cartoonish style is clean, but it comes off as too simplistic and doesn't engage players visually.”

Reviewers note that the game's sound volume options are consolidated into a single slider, which can negatively impact the gameplay experience, particularly in combat scenarios where precise audio cues are crucial for performance.
“The game offers a comprehensive sound volume control, but having all options combined into one slider can detract from the overall experience, especially in a combat setting where audio cues are crucial for performance.”
“The optimization of the game's settings allows for a smoother experience, making it easier to adjust to personal preferences without compromising gameplay.”
“I appreciate how the game provides various optimization options, enabling players to fine-tune their experience for better performance and enjoyment.”
“All game sound volume options are generalized into one slider. For a combat game, this can be detrimental to the experience and performance of the player (and in this case, the pilot).”
“The game suffers from severe optimization issues, leading to frequent frame drops and stuttering during critical moments.”
“Loading times are excessively long, making it frustrating to jump back into the action after dying or respawning.”
