Heli Attack 3 is the third game in the Heli Attack series. The player has to shoot down the helicopters that try to kill him. Unlike the two previous games in the series, there are multiple levels across a campaign instead of just a high score mode.

Explosive slow motion helicopter obliteration
If you were a kid during the mid to late 2000s, we've all had moments of lost concentration when we had a computer in front of us. The temptations were always too strong especially me hopped up on Concerta with an ADHD diagnosis. I just could never do my work being in front of this at the time, huge mechanical devices that connected us kids to the world be it regular office towers to colorful apple computers but I digress, too many times me and some classmates just hopped on Halo or Counter Strike 1.6 shared through the network or played flash games from Mini-Clip, Heli Attack 3 being the one I remembered the most.
The game is a side scrolling shooting game where the main objective is to survive and destroy aerial vehicles (not just helicopters) to progress to the next level. Levels range from a snowy field, a jungle, the red rocks of a canyon to a secret lab in visual design and introducing new enemies on the ground floor to keep making things challenging. One of the coolest things are the huge variety of weapons in this game from regular conventional weapons like shotguns and rocket launchers to shotgun lasers, "drunken" rocket launchers to a literal black hole launcher that eats everything on the screen. The gameplay feels a little simple on paper but what gives this a little tiny edge is the time distortion letting you slow down the action and it's hard to go wrong with slow motion action at your own discretion. With that said, you'll be aiming up a lot of the time but that's the name of the game here. This is Heli Attack 3, baby.
The era of flash games have come and gone with flash being a thing of the past in general and even trying to remember the times I had being a kid keeps getting harder and harder for better or worse. Probably played Bloody Rage where you had Freddy Kruger fighting Goku or Thing Thing where you just had gory as fuck shooting available from a middle school computer. It's not too hard to play Heli Attack 3 online still but the training map is kind of ruined due to the inability to read the actual tips and the levels themselves still being really glitchy as it is probably due to not running on flash itself from what I can guess. A blast from the past that still feels pretty fun with crazy aerial destruction when the only other choice back then was actually doing your work but can you imagine that?
