Nice game! I like the concept, and I find the art very adorable. One thing I would change is the background balloons—I kept trying to avoid them too xD

Thank you for the feedback!

What a nice concept! I really like the wind direction as a modifier to mess things up a little bit. I also wish the controls were a little more responsive but after a while you kinda don't notice it anymore.

Thank you for the feedback!

Great concept and really fun to play! Really enjoyed the countdown and arrow to the side making you plan out your moves :D

Developer

Thank you!

Nice and clean ! Like the idea. At first balloons passing on the background got me confused though :)

Developer

Thank you for playing and the feedback! I added the background balloons at the last minute and probably should have left them out.

Love the visuals! The gameplay can get pretty intense as you get surrounded by balloons!

Developer

Thank you for playing! The intensity was intended, so I hope it was a little enjoyable!

What a fun little puzzle game! I found myself wanting it to be more responsive to my controls than it was, but after I got into the game's groove it was smooth sailing until I got hit by that other balloon. Thanks for making and sharing your game!

Developer

Thank you for the kind feedback! I was struggling to make the controls feel good, so I will keep that in mind for next time.
