Nice game. It's kind cruel to leave all this dead ballon bodies laying on the floor. xD

we all float
Gameplay is simple but make me stick to it for very long (stick to first checkpoint very long also). Visual is well made, I like that when balloon pops, pieces scatter around! Great game!

The difference on how to manage the balloon's direction is really cool! It took me a while to get the hang of it and I had a hard time seeing some needles but it was pretty interesting

It's really fun to play and the visuals are stunning! I like the fact that it is hard, but be careful that you don't make it unfair. I think changing the locations of the checkpoints would help, but that's just my opinion.

Other than that, really good job!

Thank you for playing and leaving your comment. I agree with you, I didn't had the time to do some more testing and check the best position for the  checkpoints. =(
After the jam I wanto to implement maybe two or three difficulty levels, the harder one being without any checkpoints, and the others with more checkpoints. 

I'm happy you enjoyed playing =)

Controls are really unique and fun and the game has such a tense atmosphere!

Nice rage game, pretty simple to understand but hard to master, a bit more checkpoints would be nice

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment! I'm happy you enjoyed my game. Yeah I agree, it really needed some more checkpoints. I'll work on it after the jam period
