Firehawk is a 3D top-down shooter where you as a mercenary helicopter pilot need to defeat all the enemies and complete each mission level.

To control your helicopter, you use a mouse-keyboard combo which takes a second to become familiarized but once you do it is pretty responsive. You have the option to play in either single or two player modes (using LAN) as well as selection for difficulty levels ranging from easy to very hard.

In Firehawk, you will navigate your Apache helicopter through four different environments choosing from a variety of weapons, countermeasures as well as using helicopter upgrades to help you successfully win each mission. Missions consist of fighting against a variety of air, land, and sea-based enemies in a fast-paced environment.
