Fun 3D Platform
InfiniteLoop
Helium Boy is a fun 3D plat former where you navigate a little dude with balloons to the end of the level. The screen scrolls automatically so you must keep moving; you can drop your balloons, but you must inflate more to continue. The game looks very nice (reminds me a little of Mario 64) with busy, colorful environments. Recommended.
Fun, but bad control scheme.
The Godless
Helium boy is a fun and unique platformer that is on the verge of being a great game. With the way that the controls are set up, it's much more difficult than it actually should be. The controls force you to either reduce the screen to a tiny square on the device or cover 25% of the screen with your finger. The other issue is that it's too difficult to tell how high up you are. The shadow below Helium boy does not show up until you get close to landing. I think it would be much better if the shadow was always under him and just getting larger and more faint as Helium boy gets higher in the air. Besides these issues, Helium boy is worth trying if you love platformers or unique game experiences.
Simple fun

Helium Boy is a nice little platformer for ios. Most of the game takes place in the air, and it can be hard to keep track of where you lie in the world. The game looks nice though, and the controls are pretty forgiving due to the infinite jump provided by the balloons. It's not the most polished game, but it's definitely worth a try.
Awesome little game!

I'm happy with the new beginners mode. It lets me get used to the controls better and IMO it makes the game more fun. Keep the updates coming!
Great game

Really great game. Awesome graphics, soothing music. I like how the camera changes at stage 2 so the feel changes up a little too. Smart.
I would give it Zero stars if I could since...
