How does your game fit the theme?
It's a fun game about how to keep your hot-air balloon in the sky. But you can't control the hot balloon, and it flies with the wind. Also, a lot of junk is falling from the sky, and it fills up your balloon and accelerate it towards the ground. The only one thing you can do: drag and drop all of the stuff from you balloon, and it helps to maintain to height.

The aesthetis are very well put together and atmospheric. The game is simple, too simple for my taste, it became boring after a few minutes (I would maybe change the gameplay a bit with some powerups or boosts, but hey, I know that 48  hours isnt much). Hope I wasnt too rude, I just want to make honest reviews (which you can be too on my game *wink* *wink*)

Cool game, I like the simplicity! And what game isnt fun when there are so many rigidbodies in it?

Very nice minigame, simple but fun. Good luck!

An interesting idea, well executed and with crisp and clear visuals. gameplay lends itself to touch devices more than using a mouse so this game could easily be ported to mobile devices. The only thing I can imagine to expand on the idea perhaps have wind that changes the rotation of the basket.

Really nice game! Looks great, played smoothly, calming music. I think it can get a little boring after a few minutes of playing, but of course it's a game jam. I think this would be a great phone game, especially if you implemented more features for variety. I see what you were trying to do for the "out of control" aspect. I don't fully think it hits the prompt 100% because I, as the player, still felt in control of everything I was doing: moving items out of the hot air balloon. Who keeps throwing a guitar into it??? Anyway, very nice game, I enjoyed it!
