Browser Game Pick: Pyroblossom (Ali Maunder)
In Pyroblossom you play as an ace pilot named Red Rage, who undertakes mercenary missions to satiate his captain's greed for money. Bullets come thick and fast, but you do have a special psycho mode in your arsenal that can be used to turn your heli invincible for a couple of seconds. Additional copters can also be purchased at the end of each level, while weapon upgrades are granted automatically after you've destroyed enough enemy planes and increased your ship's level counter.
There are a total of six stages to blast through. (Newgrounds mirror)

heh - once you have too many weapon upgrades, you lose your main weapon and have to kill yourself and avoid picking up some of your dropped weapon levels to get back full firepower

Z - I've noticed a lot of people complaining about this :( I'm sure I capped the upgrades but something must have gone wrong. I'll take a look at it but annoying thing about flash distribution is that once it's out there you can't hope to get the fixed version on every site.

...unless you're using a version control system, like the free MochiAds one, for example.

Which I'm not because some sponsors don't allow mochi.

Since the enemy bullets and your bullets can be the same color, it leads to a lot of frustrating deaths.

I quite liked this game. Good work with it.
The ending was very anti-climactic, though. It seemed like it was just slapped on to call the game finished. I was expecting some sort of concluding scene. Ah well.
Looking at your site alillm I see that your other games are very cool as well
