Submitted

This is just actually so fun to play :P
 wow

Developer

Thank you good sir :)

Submitted

Wow, some out of the ordinary game. A little hard to play, but the idea is very good

Developer

Thank you! I was really struggling with tuning the difficulty as I got very mixed feedback.

Submitted

With more polish, I could see this game being a fun I Am Bread type of game . Hope you continue working on it, because the mechanics are quite fun once you get a hang of em!

Developer

I appreciate the feedback! I am currently working on a post jam update that fixes, overworks and adds a bunch of stuff.

Very interesting balloon! Love your idea and good effort!

Being a ball is fun :D

Developer

Wait till you get to see the oon part of the game :O

Submitted

very creative take on the theme and the physics are fun! I don't know if you're going to continue development after this, but I found myself trying to use wasd for mid air control a couple times. could be a cool addition?

Developer(+1)

I have gotten this feedback pretty early on, I believe. I'll definetly add it once I get back working on it if I don't forget (which will probably be after the jams voting phase)

Thanks for the positive feedback!

I really enjoyed this concept and I think this could be my favourite twist on the GROWING theme so well done! I hope the patch was done before submission cause Im not a fan of changing source material after Jam end time. You can tell your friend Michael his voice acting was great and he should persue a career in it lol. Overall Really enjoyed the gameplay and the assets and sounds where amazing, some music would have put this all together I think! I also found this purple object so not sure if this was for debugging purposes lol. 

Developer

Thank you for the positive feedback! 

You have indeed played the release version of the game. I am planning to upload one update in which I fix the sound being disabled automatically upon startup. And yes, the pink sphere was left in unintentionally. It just marks one of the checkpoints for the yellow person.

Submitted

That's an awesome idea. Was a blast flying around.

Submitted

Yay I won! Add some sound please :D

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

There is sound but it's not active upon scene load I am afraid. It should be there once you open the menu by pressing either P or Escape! I really need to fix it in a future patch.

Thanks for testing, though!

Being a balloon is fun for a bit. Would love if there was a goal, like collecting items, or a timer of how long you can stay a balloon. For one week it's a fun start.

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I totally agree. I wanted to introduce a lot more objectives but didn't quite have the time for it.  There are these small objectives that you can see on the top left but the execusion of them is bad due to lack of time as well (and I'm afraid the last task is lacking the timer I wanted to add lol). I'll definetly round off the game in the near future for completeness' sake.

Thank you for your feedback!

I enjoyed being a balloon

Balloon life = happy life

Pretty good, a bit fun. My standards are low as it was made in one week. I still enjoyed it and it surpassed my expectations of a game made in 7 days.
