About This Game

Helena The 3rd is a unique spin on the classic metroidvania style of game. While piloting a jumping tank, switch between 2D, 3D, and First Person perspectives as you search for upgrades for your combat vehicle. Blast your way through a series of interconnected, non-linear worlds, each with its own theme.
Some areas won't be accessible by tank, and you'll need to exit the safety of your vehicle in order to acquire the abilities needed to progress through the game. So sit back, relax, and enjoy some retro inspired gameplay!

This game is a mockery of its "source" material. The controls are terrible even if I could have remapped the buttons or the joystick axis, which wasn't even an option. The tank is the best thing about the art and that's not saying much. I don't know why this was done in a custom engine instead of literally anything else available. The physics are atrocious, with hitboxes that do not even remotely agree with the graphics, and I finally gave up when I fell through the world and never hit a kill plane despite waiting for over five minutes. The level design is beyond bad and is something I would have done better at than when I was doodling on paper back in grade school. Blind death jumps everywhere with no indication of what you're about to get into, and the 3d platforming is a cruel joke, only made immeasurably worse by the abysmal camera angles that this game inflicts upon you. The music is the best part of the game in that it's merely acceptable rather than torturous trash. This is t...

I'm going to lay it down simple, DON'T BUY THIS GAME. the graphics are god awful, quite frankly they look like they are lifted from a shitty unity game from kongregate. the gameplay is terrible, if i was actually trying to survive in this game, i wouldn't die, but as is, the droning music and repetive firefights made me truly discouraged. the controls are terrible on a gamepad, and there is no options to change them (honestly there are very few options to choose from) the asking price is FAR from reasonable when there are games that are ten times more fun and enjoyable than this load of crap at half the price. I'll say it again, do not buy this game.

I bought this because I was a fan of the old NES game Blaster Master and this looked like a new version of that. From what I can tell I personally think it was worth my 5 dollars. You get 3 gameplay styles; the side scroller inside the tank, a FPS style inside the tank, and a FPS shooter as a human outside of the tank. I didn't get far enough to see if there was any use for the human mode in the 2d side scroller, so that might come in later. The controls were easy for me. I used the gamepad which used one joystick for moving, one for aiming, one trigger for jumping, and one trigger for shooting. The depth perception in the 3D mode while jumping is a little tricky since you sometimes need to jump up or down and the camera didn't help much with that, so sometimes it was just a jump and hope you land in the right spot. The A.I. enemies are very basic, they run straight for you and if they touch you it hurts. The first enemies can only jump, but some enemies can shoot soon after. Over...

[b]If you ever was a kid?.. Ever loved Master Blaster or at least some of it's exciting gameplay features? Still got that kid in you? You gonna love this game. :)[/b] The game feels not finished since there are some empty textures (weapon), camera glitches, and poor animations. Saving progress system is tough. Every loading is going to take you to where the level starts. But I think that the lowest price category is a "let go" to all those flaws. I guess that's it. Other than that this game is just.. pleasurely awesome. Shooter, platformer, driving. 2D and 3D for each. Game gives you challenge (hover gas fly), it gives you spooks (flying heads). But also, that cool feeling of mastering it. I'm already like couple of days in, and I'm just at level 3. :D You can find some secrets and glitches to help you through. Just like back in a day' games! B) It is a simple game. But it is just as interesting and entertaining. One of the best games of it's price. You get much more than you pay for....
