Awesome game! Bouncing is a little bit unreliable, and the Y seems to have a maximum, loved that you added sounds. Graphics were very nicely done! The tears at the end were the best to. Keep it up!

Cute little game, great work!

Nice little game, but I think it would of been more challenging if you controlled the hands by the arrow keys. Good Game anyway.

Such a simple concept and yet that was mightily cute!

My second balloon made it to 13 years. Until it died. I probably shouldn't have any children. Ever.

Oh man, when you drop the balloon...
...right in the feels.

A nice little game!

Very nice funny game :D My balloon left me alone for one whole year between 11-12 :( But he returned and lived happily ever after :)

simple but fun game.

This game is perfect for the theme.

Nice game =] The ballon is enourmous at 15 years xD

Wow, that was a sad ending. I tried again and let go of it. I didn't realize how deep this game is! I enjoyed playing this game! Great use of the theme.

Fun game, graphics and music were really well done. Good work!

Really nice game! The graphics are great, especially the balloons. Some background music would be nice and it could be more challenging.

Nice way to tie a story behind a keep up theme. I like how the balloon gets progressively larger over time. The art style was good. The ending caught me off guard and made me sad.

Love the name.

An emotional game, great use of the theme! Though it does not have much replayability, it is very nice for 3 days of work and a twist on the bouncing ball genre.

I'm willing to do anything just to make these balloons smile!
Good job :)

simple concept . fantastically made.

I really like the look of the balloon :)
It's getting a bit hard when the balloon is bigger because we don't really know where are our hands, but it's still a funny game.

God that lose screen made me feel a little rough

I like the art (especially the background) and the humor (the game over screen is dark). I also like the game balance--as the balloon gets larger and easier to hit, your hands go out of frame.

As you commented, it really is like the opposite of my game.
