I've done it a few times and my record is 1146.

It's easy to get addicted. 8-)

650 for me. I don't understand the physics of the blocks in mid air. I'd do a lot better if the helicopter wasn't in such a hurry. ;)

Something tells me a real helicopter would be easier than this.

I haven't flown in a helicopter since the early 70's. Back then we didn't keep score. For those of you unaware.....a chopper has two distinct sounds. Coming and going. The good sound is coming. The bad sound is going. The variable pitch prop causes the sound change. I tried this little game. I scored a 37.......prolly cause my hand was shaking so damned bad.

But I am sure after you play a few times and get the course remebered you can kick butt. :D Reminds me of an old Atari game.

The course is different every time. The little blocks in your path are randomly created. I thought I'd be real clever like that too at first. :wink:
