Heli Attack 3/Gameplay

Starting the game
Enter your name and select the quality you will play the game at. Low is recommended for most computers.

When you reach the main menu, adjust the options if you need to, but try jumping in first before you tweak anything to see if you like it the way the developers made it.

Main menu
"Use the movement keys to move your player, Left and Right keys to move. Press the Jump key to jump, or hold it to jump higher. Hold the Crouch key to lower your height and dodge bullets, you can also crouch mid-air for highly evasive jumps. These keys are changeable in the options menu.
 * Help

Use the mouse to aim and click the mouse button to shoot your weapon. Change weapons with the mousewheel.

The Time Mode key triggers time modes which will slow down time to help you dodge and aim.

Use the Modify key to change actions. Modify+Jump will hyperJump and Modify+ChangeWeapon will change time modes. Modify+Crouch will let you drop through certain floors.

Every time you destroy 2 helicopters, an item will drop. Unlock weapons by defeating levels, this will increase the variety of weapons that can be dropped.

Use the options menu to change settings, you can toggle graphical effects that can speed up gameplay when turned off (background, brass, particles, coronas), and toggle sound and music. You can also toggle automatic weapon switching, which will automatically switch your weapon if you pick up a better one.

Use the controls menu to change your controls, click a control you wish to change, and press a key to bind that control to that key."

Time powers
To use time powers, hold shift. Be aware that these combined may only be used for a limited time, and only recharge a little bit every time you kill a heli or ground robot. To switch time powers, hold modify (default Shift) and a change weapon button (default Q and E).
 * Time Break - When the player uses Time Break, everything stops moving. However, the player may move at full speed, and they may move through enemy bullets without getting hurt. When they shoot from a weapon while using Time Break, the bullet freeze right outside of the gun, and continue motion after Time Break is released. Useful for evading enemy fire.
 * Time Rift - When the player use Time Rift, everything barely moves. If you shoot a weapon while using Time Rift, the bullet barely moves when launched.
 * Time Disort - When the player uses Time Disort, everything slows down (but not as much as Time Break or Time Rift does), including bullets, helis, and the player.
 * Time Sink - Unlike other time powers, Time Sink can only be used when it drops from helis. Temporarily allows unlimited use of any time power.
