[h1] Bullet hell twin stick shooter pretty much. Each level divided into three sections. Frantic gameplay with different missions and goals to complete, first one is mandatory to unlock next level (key), another two are optional (trophies). Most of the time player is overwhelmed by flying bullets from every side. Use power spin to get through it and fill the gauge by destroying more enemies. Some minor story is going on in the background but who gives a duck? Smells a bit like a mobile game to me but gameplay seems to be ok. Difficulty a bit steep later on, I feel like keyboard + mouse is a bit better to control with. [/h1]

It's one fun mix of bullet hell and shoot 'em up gameplay, except for objectives that involve saving allies and their variations. The main levels required to complete the story and beat all bosses are relatively easy, but optional levels also exist if you prefer some challenge.

Rocking Pilot is a frantic arcade-style twin-stick shooter developed by Gungrounds and Mad Head Games and published by Mad Head Games that delivers nonstop action through explosive helicopter combat and aggressive close-range gameplay. Inspired by classic arcade shooters but infused with modern visual effects and faster pacing, the game focuses entirely on reflexes, destruction, and survival against overwhelming enemy forces. Instead of slowing the action down with heavy storytelling or complicated progression systems, Rocking Pilot commits fully to pure arcade chaos, creating an experience that feels energetic from the opening moments until the final encounter. What immediately separates the game from more traditional top-down shooters is its emphasis on melee combat through the helicopter’s spinning rotor blades. While most shooters encourage careful distance management and defensive positioning, Rocking Pilot constantly pushes players toward aggressive risk-taking. Enemy soldiers, vehicles, and even incoming projectiles can be destroyed by diving directly into combat and slicing through targets at close range. This mechanic gives the gameplay a reckless and satisfying momentum …

Pretty fun!

Wow, this game deserves more players. It's so much fun, and at the current price of $1 it's a steal. Each level has its own challenges. As you complete challenges, you can unlock new powerups and new stages. There are also score attack modes for many of the stages which give you plenty of opportunity to shoot for high scores, compete with others, all while enjoying the fast paced and super fun gameplay. Great job, Dev!

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
