Important : The windows version is the best one as the web player has some issues with sprites.
Icare's Balloon will test your reflexes as you will have to avoid obstacles to get to the end of each level - available from the central hub. Grab the stars to manage your balloon's size, either to prevent it from bursting or to deflate it and slip through!
Controls: 2 buttons Go left / go right : left & right arrows (or mouse buttons) Press left and right at the same time to restart when you die Pause: Space Quit: Escape
You will guide the balloon to its freedom. Explore every levels, save its friends, and you will unlock the portal to fly to the infinite and beyond... Unless another obstacle keeps Icare's Balloon from reaching the ultimate frontier !
Post Jam Update (06/01/2016): Add Checkpoints Modify balloon's hitbox Add button to clear save
Cheat code: Press 'G' 'W' & 'K' to unlock the last level (windows only)

Addicting to play. Small improvement idea - when hit an obstacle, I'd made a reminder how to restart the level, not only in the beginning. Or just give a Restart button if lost. Thank you for the fun game.
Cool idea but slightly more physics based movement would make it feel more than a baloon. Also if you look away when starting the game you have now idea how to restart or play
I'm all in for difficult games. But I also like it when they're fair. This game is a little too on the difficult side. The control mechanics are good and they feel solid. I think adding checkpoints to this game would have made a huge difference.
It is pretty cool as it is now, but adding checkpoints and improving the graphics will make the game even better!
At the beggining I was like... 'nah', but then I've found myself playing it for the next 20 minutes. The graphics were nice and clean. Gameplay was difficult yet still pleasant until I had to restart the whole thing. Maybe you would consider adding some checkpoints?
Great game, lots of content. Would be nice to have some way to speed-up (maybe by pushing both left and right). That would make it less frustrating when you die and got very far, as you could just boost your way back.
