Streamed while playing this and commented throughout if you want to watch the playback. Love the art style on this. It works so well and is such a cozy and enjoyable game. Excellent work.

Very cool and smooth game. It could be little bit faster.

I really like the art style here - although I wish the clouds had the same line thickness as the balloon, they kind of stand out chilling in the background haha

Nice artwork, nice setting for a game and I like the way you have shown the wind. I feel like the game would benefit from making the wind stronger at a higher altitude

I really like the physics based movement idea and the art is very unique . It feels like I'm playing inside a painting.

The line are style works really well, feels very handmade which is nice. The idea of the balloon lofting in the wind is interesting, I like the joint mechanics of how it reacts when running into obstacles.

From a gameplay standpoint though (which is not this round’s purpose, to be fair) is it feels very slow and fairly simple, as I can’t control the speed and I have plenty of time to change the height. Maybe that could give room to layer on some other mechanic, so it’s almost like you are doing something else (building/crafting?) and then have to go back in time to keep the balloon position. Anyhow, just spitballin’.
