Raid on Bungeling Bay

A rather rare type of gameplay, atypical for console scrolling shooters. The player controls an attack helicopter (top view) and has complete freedom to choose the direction of flight! The helicopter can take off and land on the carrier, accelerate forward or backward, turn at any angle, shoot and throw bombs. You have to fly both over water (where you have to shoot at boats and ships) and over land (where enemy cities have guns and tanks). The graphics are modest but tasteful, especially considering that the game was released in 1984. Probably the most interesting helicopter scrolling shooter on the NES.
