Stunt Copter is a monochrome Macintosh action game written by Duane Blehm and published by his Kansas-based company, HomeTown Software, in 1986.[1][2]
Gameplay
The game involves piloting a small helicopter around a playfield. The player has to position the helicopter and drop a person suspended from the aircraft onto a hay bale or moving cart. If incorrectly timed, the person might fall onto the ground or injure the horse or the driver of the cart.[3]
Legacy
After Blehm's death, his parents released his games and source code into the public domain.[4]
MacAddict magazine used Stunt Copter to demonstrate software compatibility of Mac OS X public beta.[5] An OS X version was released by Antell Software.[6]
An iPhone version was released by nerdgames in 2009.[6][7] In 2011, an iPad version of Stunt Copter was released by Apollo Software which is similar to the original.[8]
In 2018, a collection of his games were uploaded to the Internet Archive and made playable in a web browser.[9]
