Whoopsie, crashed into a rock, say sorry to Johnny Harper for me!
Well done, I especially liked the amount of detail you were able to put in, like the falling debris and the applause. I would have liked a better overview like being able to zoom out. Also a list of available controls on the game's page or during the tutorial had been a plus, I had to guess how to move the helicopter (although guessing was not too hard here).
To increase the tension of the game maybe have the islands go down slowly? You'd have to rescue people on the lowest islands first.
