Evaluation

Megacopter: Blades of the Goddess launched on June 21, 2024 as a complete, passion-project game. The developer (Pizza Bear Games) was very active in the months following launch, shipping a steady stream of feature patches and quality-of-life improvements: a new difficulty mode, weapon rebalancing, localization into 8 additional languages, UI improvements, and a new difficulty setting called "Chillin'". The last recorded update was a small bug fix on October 24, 2024 adding Turkish language support. The developer's July 19, 2024 post ([NEWS-5]) expressed enthusiasm for delivering "more content and replayability" in the near future. However, no specific content was ever named, no DLC was listed on the store, and no roadmap was published. No developer communication of any kind has appeared since October 24, 2024 — now over 8 months ago. Given that the pre-October 2024 update cadence was quite frequent (roughly every 2–4 weeks), this extended silence strongly suggests the active post-launch update phase has concluded. The July 2024 forward-looking statement about future content was vague and general, and given that no such content ever materialized across many subsequent months, it appears the team's ambitions were satisfied by the series of feature patches and improvements they shipped between June and October 2024. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced expansions, and no outstanding developer commitments. The game launched as a complete product and received a meaningful post-launch improvement period that now appears to have concluded.

About this game

Introduction

Megacopter is the culmination of classic retro games of the 80’s and 90’s (Choplifter, Desert/Jungle/Urban Strike) and TV programs that molded us (Airwolf, Knight Rider) with updated gameplay and sci-fi adventure.

Pilot the sentient Megacopter while you battle Reptoid forces in the air and on the ground. Take off on an adventure with Jack the Pilot, Hobo Jones and his crew, and many more.

Features

Missions: Play a variety of mission types. Seek and destroy missions feature an escalating threat level as you penetrate enemy lines. Rescue missions allow you to save your comrades (choplifter style). Defense missions feature waves of enemies. Boss hunt missions feature a powerful enemy.

Environments: Take the fight to the Reptoids across 4 different biomes and over a dozen missions as you look to defeat the Reptoid scum and bring sanity back to the Tri-state area!



Command the Weapons of Mortals: The Megacopter is a machine with huge guns, and an even bigger appetite for blood. Exchange Pizza Tokens at the armory, and unlock more guns, more firepower, and more…well….destruction.



Unlock the Power of AZ-TECH: The Blades of the Goddess demand blood, and blood you will deliver. Through (somewhat willing) Greg sacrifices, you can unlock the powers of the Goddess that lives within Megacopter. Choose the perfect AZ-TECH pairing for your mission loadouts and you’ll be cutting through Reptoids like a knife through butter.



Soundtrack: Original soundtrack by OGRE sound. These amazing retro tracks will get you in the mood to seek and destroy.
