4Gyrodine is a vertical scrolling shoot'em up where you fly a helicopter and fight enemies in the air and on the ground. It's a painfully generic shoot'em up with some unique ideas but is ultimately forgettable. There's no power-up system and repetitive gameplay. The auto-fire is also annoyingly slower than tapping the button yourself. Your rockets at least attack both ground and air and are unlimited.
