Another game with interesting production qualities, like we're used of you, ReactorScram :P

I played the .love version and didn't have any technical difficulties. It took me a little while to figure out how the game should be played, but once I got the hang of it, I managed to get a score of 6683 points. Not bad I think, right?

I had a good laugh at some of the images on the TV and the general concept of pumping to inspiring pictures is pretty funny in itself. Good job!

I had to download the love file, as the web version didn't work. Nice job!

Huh! I never thought I'd play a game with such a prominent phallic allegory. That weird-as-hell synth music and crude art style really sets a strange mood too. It feels like a warioware game, which I hope is taken as a compliment!

I think this hypnotizing music saved the game.

amusing. I managed to get 16396 before i died. I kept expecting to get the two pictures in a row that don't have the pumps. lol so death. xD or something to boost the power up because the picture was that much more compelling. lol. nice simple track, everything felt rather scrawn.(drawn.) interesting.

Most insane game so far: well don! :) The idea is amazing: pump the balloon while watching TV.

Love random, original entries. Good work!

I'm not sure why I don't like it.

It has graphics like a warioware mini game, it has sounds and music (although that pumping sound is really grating), it has atmosphere, it has humour in the tv screens, still I dont find it fun.

Perhaps it's because it took me a long time before I understand how to get a score. Perhaps it's because it's very dependent on luck whether I can keep the game running. Perhaps it's that pumping sound that I don't like. Perhaps it's because my aversion of 3 colour games, especially because that 3rd colour feels out of place. I don't know.

Still, not bad for a 48 hour game.
