About the Game

Helix is a challenging roguelike shooter filled with many decisions, many of which you'll regret.

Traverse through a Helix Tower, finding loot along the way, and grabbing treasure where you can afford the weight.
Pick up all the guns, upgrades, jewels, and gems you want, but just remember... You can't drop anything

Fight through ten randomized levels filled with loot, guns, and enemies, then challenge the boss at the top. Buy different vehicles with the treasure you find every run, each with their own unique properties and playstyles.

Highlights:

*Random generation
Random levels, enemies, and loot ensure that every run will be different.

*Gun Variety
Helix has over 100 weapons, ranging from knives to earthquakes.

*Challenging Gameplay
Helix's difficult enemies and tough choices lead to many intense games, making the runs you beat count even more.
