Hello everyone. I’ve just published my first game called Geoheli.

Objective of the game is to fly to different capital cities before the time runs out. You control the helicopter with WASD keys or you can hold down mouse button and the helicopter will follow the cursor.

Currently the game contains only map of Europe. Game has been released for Androids and desktop PCs.

Just gave this a little play through and I like it as a small game. I had fun trying to find some cities I’ve never heard of before which was challenging.

One of the things you could expand on is maybe asking the player a question about the country when they land on the target city. As this game seems to be aimed at an education, this could be pretty fun learning about other countries :slight_smile: just a small tip really

I have thought about that and I might add bonus questions that appear around the map randomly. Eg first I hide country labels of target country and it’s neighbors and then ask player to name the country.
