Good memories ! Juste hearing the first second of the music and seeing the picture i'm 7 years old again ! I was happy when my dad sometimes was coming home with the Macintosh of his company cause i could play this fuckin game for hours ! I think Airborne was my very first game as far as i can remember. Thanx for upload !
This reminds me of the Lazy Game Reviewer's favourite DOS game, Paratrooper. You have to shoot at parachuting enemies and choppers to amass score, but every shot deducts a point, and if too many land, they blow you up. There's also special vehicles you have to shoot down quickly, like the jet there. The difference being that you're in the middle of the field in Paratrooper instead of to the left, and this game has multiple types of guns. The way the Mac treated this design is interesting.
This was the first game I have ever played on a Mac/computer. I still miss it... In the end I always died by them invaders running over me and killing me, yet I kept on playing... ;-)
Oh my boy i remember this so well, thank you so much this just put a giant smile on my otherwise grinch face, than you so much... love you buddy!!!!!!!
UberMan5000 It's not a surprise. This is a self-admitted Parachute clone. Personally it is my favorite version of the game. Especially since it gives you the additional weapon of a mortar so that you can destroy enemies already on the ground.
Thanks much for sharing. I think this was my all time favorite mac game. Good games don't require 500 people to create...
Whenever that tank dropped, I knew I was in trouble.

I remember the awe i felt when that Wagner soundtrack started up. First time I'd heard digitized sound on a Mac! Awesome.
The silence before that jet was _terrifying._

Thanks for uploading this, it was probably my favorite computer game when I was a kid, I just showed this video to my son :)
Nice! I remember playing this when I was a kid.
Choplifter? you bet
Loved this game on my Mac SE!
Awesome! I remember on December 25th, a Christmas tree was there instead of a cactus :D

I love classic Mac games. I think games with the greatest graphical limitations are also the most interesting. Kind of like original game boy games :)
That jet was the bane of my existence
My favorite thing to do sometimes was to shoot the parachute and watch the troops drop.
I dreamed of this game last night! Played the sh*t out of this when I was young. Thanks for the memories :)
I love how you have homing bullets!
I used to have this game on my old ipod.
My dad just told me that he offered the maker of this a place at his job. The person who made this later made Flash.
Just the first video game of my life (I was 6 year old).
hahaha. I remember that too! I thought that was the most amazing thing!! LOL
This game is on ios now!!
