    10/10 It's fun and absolutely worth it!! The mechanic is simple and engaging ______________________________ Im so hooked right now because i want to unlock all the achievement balloons so badly. At first it's kinda tricky to control the platform (you have to maintain balance and shoot/pop the balloons at the right time). But once u get the hang out of it the real fun begins. Im constantly laughing at my stupid fails and pray that i make it to the next Island. Each run is kinda unpredictable :D

    Totally worth it. A lot of potential for funny glitches and stunts :D

    Pretty nice Endless-Runner!! With a lot of potential, something is a little bit "buggy" but it's a lot of fun! Would recommend 9/10!!!

    Funny game for in between. Great ideas with the different islands, which spawn randomly. I would have liked to see a ranking list, maybe just in comparison with my Steam friends, then the motivation would be greater to want to outdo each other and maybe more of my friends would play the game.

    My system exceeds the recommended specifications for this game. It seems that there is an annoying camera smoothing feature that introduces the illusion of mouse lag and there are no options to configure in the game to improve performance. The games core concept is kind of boring and it is a bit lacking in content too. All you do is shoot balloons that tether to objects and then you wait. There's more balloon designs to unlock however I see no point.. I would rather unlock parts and assemble…

    Balloon Flight is a playful, physics-driven arcade experience developed and published by Cyberwave that takes a simple idea—flying with balloons—and stretches it into a surprisingly expressive sandbox built around experimentation, chaos, and self-directed challenge. Rather than presenting a rigid set of objectives or a structured campaign, the game invites players to tinker with buoyancy and momentum in a first-person perspective, turning each attempt at flight into a small improvisational…

    It's a good game overall. Have a few collision issues (Specially issue when the platform should take your boat while you take more time and when you return IT HAS STUCK ITSELF ON THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ WALL AND RUINS A MAJESTIC RUN). But it's a good game.

    A fun little game, somewhere between parkour and sandbox I guess. It could use some more objects or some ways to connect parts togeher, as right now you effectively only have 2 different vehicles you can use, a small one and a large one. On the large one you could place some objects losely, you can't connect them however so its not truely a sandbox-like "Build your own vehicle and then fly it". I hope something along those lines will be added at some point in the future, as beeing able to…

    to be fair, its an amazing game but i wish it had a bit more and the whole staying on the platform was ezier, tho i give it a 10/10 cuz it most definitely is just a prototype of some kind, keep doing the gud stuff

    The game is a fun little tech demo. It can be honestly challenging. But the depth of the game comes entirely from your commitment to beating your highscore. I'd buy it at it's regular sale price of 90% off.

    Its a good little game but for me it lacks levels. Just trying to get as far as possible sounds pointless for me. Its a good game but just not my type. Refunding, I'm sorry

    The physics are real fun to play around with, for example try attaching a balloon to each of the front corners of the platform and then start the main rotor while leaving the platform... you can do really funny stunts this way :D
