Pilot a jumping tank through a maze of underground caverns and dungeons in search of new abilities you'll need to progress deeper into the levels. Each upgrade is hidden out of reach of your tank, and can only be obtained after exploring on foot. (This game is inspired by a certain NES game which I love)
SPECIAL NOTE: 2 Free keys to anyone that agrees to make a youtube video of the game!

Hey guys, as a fun little promotion, I'm going to make Helena The 3rd free through Sunday. Enjoy!
Nice, going to check it out now.
Hi, can we get better textures and a full screen mode ?
Yep, fullscreen and an option to invert the mouse y-axis and the game would be perfect for me.
Helena is honestly just one of those games I work on for fun, for the amusement of others. There's no money in a game like this. I might add a fullscreen mode, but with no other artists dedicated to the game you'll have to take the art as is.
Bought this on Indievania last year, which is still on version 1.17. Autoupdate doesn't even seem to work anymore. Is there the possibility of getting this added to my Desura account?
Done, and yes the autoupdate was a bust, and a bit hard to maintain.
Just logged in and got it added. That was quick! Thanks a lot :)
Are there any linux users out there who would want the new multiplayer updates to come out on their system? I.E. would you play the game again if I brought the new updates over?
Hey guys, Helena is agetting a version 1.40 update soon which will vastly improve the multiplayer enemy code. Enjoy!
