That is a cool concept. The law of physics indicates that particular copter would spin out of control soon as taking off and would never reach that altitude. Guess we could suspend basic laws of physics.

It is actually a gyrocopter. They fly more like an airplane. The top rotor is not powered. It spins by forward motion, which the pusher prop provides.

They've gotten over 5,000 combined views, and growing.

They reference this thread mainly and track the update progress of the game.

Feedback is greatly appreciated!

The second link is sort of a reiteration of the first, still referencing this thread, but with a focus on the weapons, and using different keywords. (Mainly to gain more attention to the subject.)

They actually happen to be some of my most popular content ATM.
