Pretty original game idea, the art was nice but would of been better with more colour. Overall really very cool game

Neat concept! I have to say the controls are a bit frustrating, they feel very imprecise, especially if the balloon moves fast, what is difficult to avoid. It should not be necessary to click for moving the balloon IMO. I'd like to play more levels :)

Took me a few tries to 'get' it, but the mechanic to move the balloon is very well done, and satisfying to play. Really nice game!

I understand we had no much time for that, so I rated you Graphics to 3* because I like so much the idea and I don't want to down the whole rate only for this. Good work and keep going this way :)

Decent entry, though I didnt notice any audio. Gameplay didnt keep me around for more than a couple rounds.

Dragging with the mouse felt a bit weird. I imagine it might feel better on a mobile phone. Also, the levels wrapped around, but that might have been intentional.

Nice. But the gameplay is not obvious, I tried several minutes before being able to push the balloon (I needed to keep the mouse button down). Regarding the theme, from my POV, you did not stick with it. There is several levels, so the game is not "entire" on the screen.

Neat game. The controls were ok, but it might be better to make the drag hitbox largeron the balloon.

Original idea. Physic of the ballon is really hard to control. I was frustrate so i couldn't enjoy the concept. I don't know how to improve this kind of movements. With a lot of test maybe. I suppose it's hard to set it well.

Very simple and short, but fun. I wish there were more levels than just the three, but I could see this game being developed further to find its way to the mobile market (the controls are pretty intuitive with touch devices). Good job!

Really like those bright yellow tiles, the overall aesthetic is really nice. I think the 'swiping' controls could be made to feel a little nicer. To fight the momentum already built up on the balloon, I had to drag it many times rapidly to get it to go where I wanted, when really I wanted to just be able to throw it around with a bit more force. Cool game though, well done!
