Scramble Squadron
A downloadable game for Android
Virtual Reality Combat Helicopter simulator for Oculus Quest Headsets
If you allways wanted to become a combat helicopter pilot, or if you enjoyed classic helicopter simulator games such as Comanche or Gunship, this is your game.
The game includes a training map, and five different missions with two levels of difficulty.
The helicopter is equiped with three different offensive weapons and one defensive counter measure: Weapons:
- Gimballed Machine gun: agains any enemy but weak
- Micro Rockets: usefull agains buildings and armoured targets
- Heat guided missiles: againts tanks and airplanes
Counter measures:
- Flares to avoid enemy guided missiles
You start your missions on your base. The radar points you to the primary and secundary missions. You end the mission by landing on your base. You can also land on your base to rearm or repair your helicopter.
The game is actually in early alpha. Depending on your comments and reviews, I would be improving and implementing new missions, weapons and enemies.
Hope you enjoy it.

It's a great looking game for an alpha version.
Unfortunately I haven't completed any of the missions. The hardest part is landing afterwards! Maybe the mission should end when you have done the primary and secondary parts? I understand that you need to learn how to do it so you can re-arm but it seems a bit pointless forcing the player to spend time doing that bit after the action has completed.
It would be nice if there was some indication of heading. Rather than have to look at the map and see if you are getting nearer to the target.
At some points I was indundated with enemy guided missiles. Maybe include some tips? Like shoot the missile sites to stop that happening?
I found it odd that you cannot use the other missile types to destroy targets. I ran out of micro rockets on the airport mission and tried to switch to guided missiles but they didn't seem to lock on to anything.
On the last mission, by the time you see the plane and get there, you don't have enough time to destroy it. And once your base is destroyed the mission should end but at the moment the plane just stops moving. It still shoots at you though!
