For whatever reason you feel that you should no longer live in that deep canyon.
Your means of escape: A balloon! It's strong enough to arry you, but for some weird reason the moment you start, the canyon starts collapsing.
Can you make it out alive? (This is no endless game; you'll eventually leave the canyon.)
This game can be played with the keyboard or a gamepad.

The initial concept had more obstacles other than rocks (like brambles, birds, etc.), but I ran out of time. I'll probably add some later on.

I'll only provide a Windows binary, but the game should compile and run under MacOS as well as Linux (tested on Ubuntu x64 only). You'll just have to grab the source (as well as SFML2) and compile it yourself. Feel free to provide feedback, I'm more than happy to help getting it running on as many systems as possible.
Note regarding the Ubuntu precompiled binary: Please run the game through the shell script; this will ensure the game finds the shared libraries that are included.
