About
Embark on a journey into the forgotten world of Helix: Descent N Ascent.

You awaken in a dull, dark, disembodied world. Though you're usually alone, you soon encounter another being who looks just like you, except he always seems to be at odds with you. Who is this doppelganger? Is he a friend or a foe?


Discover new powers as you progress through your adventure. Each one of these powers allows you to meaningfully interact with your surroundings and solve the many puzzles awaiting you.


Master the unique mix-and-match system that allows you to combine these powers. Play in 25 distinctive ways, jumping between 3 levels of complexity while you explore the barren lands of Helix.


Beyond adventure, Helix invites you to reflect on identity, solitude and relationships. It weaves each mystery and reminiscence of a past existence with personal, cultural, and spiritual threads. Uncover overlooked details in a story worth revisiting.


Experience a tale not told with words, but through an immersive adventure enriched by stunning 4K black-and-white artwork, living 2D scenery, evocative paintings, and powerful atmospheric music. Drawing inspiration from 1980s black-and-white indie comics, 1990s manga, and 1970s Franco-Belgian comics, the monochrome imagery is symbolic, evoking the dichotomy of light and darkness.

Балдёж.
I was here on day one. I played the demo so far, and I'll update my review once I beat the game, but so far I'm loving it, this is one of my contestants for Indie game of the year fosho fosho.
I'm really liking this game so far. The visuals, animation, and music come together really well to draw me in, and mixing and matching abilities to solve puzzles is a great experience to keep me trying to engage with the game. I even enjoy the arcade game that makes use of your puzzle abilities against you in Donkey Kong arcade-style levels. Finding scraps of lore/meta-puzzle notes by exploring is great at insuring you'll check every level, and watching your counterpart demonstrate advanced abilities keeps you looking forward to what you'll find next. I might be stuck at the moment, but I'm looking forward to finding my way out of it even if I can't see it yet. This is definitely a game I can recommend for those who like puzzles.

解谜不难但是正反馈非常强!技能结合的创意很好,作者小巧思挺多的,尤其是美术别具一格非常推荐!
Only played through the first 2 hours, but already this game is amazing!! I'm blown away by the artwork, the puzzle are challenging enough, and the audio is dope! Love it <3
Fun puzzle game. I didn't think the main puzzles were ever too hard, but definitely had to work at a few before I saw credits. I stopped before 100% because those more meta puzzles were too difficult for me
目前玩着还不错,有点tunic和fez那味了
