How to Play Tiger-Heli
Quick start
At the title, use SELECT to choose 1 PLAYER or 2 PLAYERS, then press START. Begin with short directional movements while firing forward with B. Keep A for a dangerous concentration of enemies or bullets: bombs are limited, and the aircraft can carry only two. Watch the cross-shaped supply blocks change color before shooting them. Gray gives a forward-firing helper, red gives a sideways-firing helper and green releases a B bomb pickup. Meet a helper alongside your helicopter to attach it, and fly through B to replenish a bomb. Do not chase an item into a stream of enemy fire.
Controls
Directional pad: move the helicopter up, down, left or right. B: fire missiles. A: use a bomb from your limited supply. SELECT: choose the number of players on the title screen. START: begin the game; during play, pause and press again to resume. Supplies are collected by moving into the B pickup or alongside a support helicopter, not by a separate pickup button.
Tiger-Heli — About this game
Tiger-Heli turns a helicopter raid into a vertically scrolling shooting challenge. Tanks, gunboats and fortified positions threaten your aircraft as you move around the battlefield and fire forward. Ordinary missiles are unlimited, but the powerful bombs carried beside the helicopter are a limited resource. Supplies add a timing decision: shoot a changing cross while it is gray for a forward-firing helper, red for a sideways-firing helper, or green for a replacement bomb. Move alongside a support helicopter to attach it, or fly through a B pickup to collect the bomb. Up to two helpers can strengthen your formation, while diamond-shaped bonus blocks offer another reason to line up careful shots. Surviving depends on spotting enemy fire early, keeping room to move and choosing useful supplies rather than simply destroying every target immediately.
