Smolpxl Heli

Smolpxl Heli is the simplest of the small games we've tested from this author's catalogue: an auto-scrolling helicopter drops water to flatten a sandcastle before it crashes into it. One button, one idea.

Controls (6.0), confirmed working -- but not the clean exception we expected. We tested this directly on both platforms. Tapping the canvas dropped water and visibly shrank the sandcastle towers with a real, correctly-updating score (0 to 2 on touch, 0 to 1 on a shorter desktop run) -- the core mechanic genuinely works. However, we need to correct something going in: because this game has no on-screen directional button panel, we expected it might be the one entry in this family that dodges the touch-triggered "undefined" label bug we've flagged elsewhere. It doesn't. The instant you touch the screen, all three on-screen instructions -- "Enter to start," "Space to drop some water," "Escape to pause" -- become "undefined to start / undefined to drop some water / undefined to pause." That's the same pervasive severity we found in Spring, not the milder two-button version in Snake or Duck Maze 2. We confirmed it's touch-specific: desktop keyboard play showed every label correctly throughout our test.

Gameplay and value (5.0 each). This is a genuinely thin toy. There's no visible level structure, no named stages, and no twist beyond "tap faster, score more before you crash." It plays for a minute or two and doesn't leave much behind.

We'd rather report this plainly than let a prior assumption stand uncorrected: the mechanic works, but between the display bug and the thin content underneath it, this doesn't clear our bar.
