Artistic Puzzle Adventure Helix: Descent N Ascent Evolves its DNA to a 23 July Release Date
Belgian indie game studio Badass Mongoose decided to postpone the release of their atmospheric puzzle-adventure Helix: Descent N Ascent to 23 July 2026, on Steam and Nintendo Switch.
Given the very positive reception of the demo, the developers have decided to add an extra layer of content to match the scale they had envisioned for the game. They also needed additional time to perfect the Nintendo Switch version, ensuring it delivers the same level of quality and performance as the PC release.
Helix: Descent N Ascent has a monochrome artstyle that draws inspiration from 1980s black-and-white indie comics, 1990s manga, and 1970s Franco-Belgian comics. With atmospheric music by Jim Guthrie (Sword and Sorcery, Nobody Saves The World and Below) added into the mix, it makes for an artistic journey to remember!
Helix: Descent N Ascent features no violence but focuses on puzzles and exploration. Discover new abilities as you progress through your adventure and combine them to interact with your surroundings to solve the many puzzles that await!
