minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·15 days agoThis was Choplifter, which ran on C64 and Apple IIe. I imagine it also had an 8086/8088 PC version. Not sure if that’s what you mean by “IBM” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9D4KPjAIms I do see something called Chopper Commando. Is that what you are thinking of? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWSQ2tph5Fc The other side-scroller I mention above was called Wings of Fury. Also on Apple II and later on 80x86. Whenever I think of Choplifter I always think of this next. https://youtu.be/T946Tg8z2N4?t=30
minus-squareMutilationWave@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-214 days agoHoly shit you got it! Chopper Commando is the one! You won the bounty - PM incoming. The others look fun by the way. Wings of Fury looks intense. I’m going to try to emulate all of these. Maybe even try to get a controller working for them.
