I like the gameplay. Gameloop simple and fun. Great potential for coop game!!! Difficult to understand in a first time.

Did your team create most/all of the graphics yourselves?
yes
Did your team create most of/all the audio yourselves?
yes
How did you incorporate the theme "UNSTABLE"?
Our game it is Unstable because the player is controlling a balloon that is difficult to keep stable. Wind, movement, and obstacles can make the balloon lose balance, so the player must constantly control it and try to stay stable.

I played a little and I can say that your game have a great gaming-loop. You explained everything in the game with details and that's a good thing that most of the people forgot. And for the record, I liked art style and music too
The concept is great and very unique but the gameplay ends up being very complex. There's a lot you need to remember and the tutorial being lots of text outside of the game can make the experience very frustrating. With that said, I really love the visuals and I think this is still a pretty good game!
This was a cool concept. I think some solid onboarding with this game would have helped a lot. Maybe a short intro level that taught the player how and when to move objects. When to pick up and use objects and when to throw remove objects. Something like that would have gone a long way! The art is quite nice and the audio felt well enough! I think as of now, the main gameplay loop just needs a bit more clearer direction to help make this game pop a bit more!
Lovely art and game idea! It fits the jam theme super well I think. Well done! :)
Love the pixel art! I had to reread the tutorials after losing a couple to fully understand what I needed to do. Its a nice simple game, awesome work!
Love the use of the theme and the pixel arts look so good. Good job!!! <3
Really cool idea and great art style! I love the color scheme and animation of the clouds in the background as you're drifting (: difficult but fun to play when you get the hang of it!
An interesting and nice idea. I like it. It has a pleasing visual appeal. Great job.
Great art style and I really liked the audio! Its hard but fun to play, good job!
It's an interesting and fun game for sure! The art style is really cool, and it also matches the theme of unstable really well. Be sure to check my game out and Good Luck!
Nice style! Would be nice to see the player guided better on how mechanic works, it helps them play for longer.
I like this game. Style is good, mechanic is also. Kinda complicated, I'm not the best person for driving air baloon:D
But I like how you use the theme of the jam in your game
really liked the art style and game. kinda hard but its fun to play.
very cool idea and art style, could run a bit more smoothly and I think the speed is a little much! one of my favorites so far!
At first, I was very lost, and even after reading the descriptions and instructions couldn't figure out what to do, but after a long time testing I discovered what I needed to do.
For anyone wondering what to do: Focus on the compass, and by moving stuff around the place you need to guide the direction of the balloon towards the compass direction.
This game is truly amazing and super fun. The gameplay is super creative and engaging once you learn it. I would definetely buy a full version. It's sad that probably because of the steep learning curve most fast-try people will give up prematurely.
Feedback: The game will benefit from a smoother easier starting scenario. Adding each mechanic one a time would help it to be more understable for a first-time player. I'd suggest to make an initial level with only weights and the compass , no gas-indicator, weight-indicator, no chairs, no backpack, only guiding.. and then slowly add things.
Kudos for the team, this is a gem. Easy 5/5.
