This was a good entry! Took a little bit to figure out what to do and how to play but it was fun! Launching myself with the balloons seemed to slow down my browser though (?)

Thanks for your feedback @figglewatts! We tried removing the particles on web builds to reduce lagging. Did you manage to reach the end?

Awesome game! I burst out laughing when I set loose my first balloon haha. It wasn't overly connected to the theme, but is fantastic nonetheless :)

Great Game. I don't know about if it goes with the theme though

Thanks for playing our game @applepicke @justicepro! The original idea was to 'sacrifice' balloons to progress, but I agree that it's not such a good fit for the theme. We had a blast making it though :smile:

I love the Soundeffect by blowing up a balloon ^^ Good Work

The sound effect on letting balloons go was amazing, I could listen to it all day. I liked the idea around the game very much, although I couldn't get too far without a mouse. I don't think there's much you could've done to help with that without making the game considerably easier though, so it's all good. The soundtrack fit the game pretty well, too!

I love the title of the game !!! It was also quite fun to play although i wasn't able to complete level 6, even with multiple balloons tied to my hand. It was quite weird that balloons lifted me only if I clicked but i guess it would be a very different game otherwise. The sound effects were also nice. Good job overall !

This was a great platformer, I had a lot of fun playing it, the sounds were great! I had a bit of hard time figuring out how to move accross balloon wise (using webbrowser) but that might also just be me TBH. xD Great work and looking forward to seeing what you come up with in the next LD!! :D

Thanks for your feedback @kerdelos! I have the feeling you were on the right path to complete level 6... Maybe you need more balloons?

I really enjoyed the game mechanics in this one. It was simple but with such basic mechanics, you have the ability to create a lot of different levels. And sounds tell us that you had fun doing it too :)

Nice idea and good excecution! I think you could decrease the time it takes to inflate baloons to speed up the process of getting all the baloons together. Good job on the game!
