Sidescrolling shooter where you rescue Vietnam POWs

game-identification

I'm trying to identify a game I played this weekend. The main game appeared to be a sidescrolling shooter, where you have to shoot open cages to rescue Vietnam POWs. The environment was destructible, and there was a mission select screen where you move around a little helicopter on a spherical map. The graphics are in a pixel-style, but the game appears to be very modern. It was optionally co-op, and I played it in a polycade arcade cabinet but I suspect it is not an "arcade" game. There was an online mode as well. Anyone have any clue what I played?

Looks like Broforce or The Expendabros. The screenshot and description match perfectly.

Which game is this: you are in the gargoyle garden

It's Mystery Mansion given the mainframe in question and the time frame. The reference to mansion in the bottom paragraph gives it away. Additionally this is confirmed by going through the game's source code, specifically the FORTRAN .f file:

 58 FORMAT(/" HIGH HEDGES BLOCK THE VIEW AROUND YOU BUT YOU CAN SEE ",
     1"SOME OF THE"/" GARGOYLES ALONG THE ROOF OF THE MANSION. THERE ",
     2"ARE PATHS GOING IN SEVERAL"/" DIRECTIONS.")

The game was remade for various systems including DOS and Android.
