Your tiny friends are being captured by self-reproducing robots!

Who knows what they're doing with them?

Don't get too worried, your friends are extremely tough! Not even steel can stop them when given a little push. Help them escape by lending your opposable thumbs and knowledge of projectile motion!

Break them free and they will fight alongside you. Take down the three self-reproducing servers that are targeting your pals, and wipe your hands clean of their dusty circuitry.

"A Helping Hand" is a 2D platforming roguelite where the weapons are your friends, and also your "money". Each animal behaves differently when fighting, so some situations have to be approached accordingly. Each enemy room is randomly picked from a bank of premade levels depending on which "floor" you are on, and enemies get tougher to destroy as you continue.
