Excellent work! The only complaint I had was I couldn't jump with space, other than that it was really fun. Nice touch with the power-ups.

Perfect!!!, I love it, meybe only ad some guide for the power-ups, like unlock info firts time you see it )like zombies in plants vs zombies), just for know what do any power up, just suggestion xD Excellent work!!!
Good game! I agree with @mincemeat in that Space Bar should have been able to jump as well. Also, I feel the tutorial screen should be automatically hidden upon killing the first bee. This would make the start over screen easier and killing a bee requires all available controls anyway.
Cool stuff, reminded me of Super Crate Box. I dig the idea of having an invincible player with a vulnerable object being brought along.
I really like the attached balloon physics. I'm also a fan of the background art in the main level, really nice looking. Making the player invulnerable and protecting something else is a smart way to spin the theme.
Are the larger balloon upgrades strictly bad because they make it easier for your balloon to be popped?
Realy fun game) Spent about 10 minutes trying to make progress
Liked a graphics a lot and sound effects. Soundtrack got a big grating but good job. Liked the physics and how the balloon moved around specifically. Good job!
"Not the bees! Not the bees!" The balloon physics are fantastic. I enjoyed the different kinds of enemies and powerups too. I accidentally died during the tutorial and it never came back; is there a way to review the tutorial?
I'll definitely be replaying this one. Right now, my high score is 196.
@ian-kettlewell yeah, red box is kind of debuff) tried to make it more obvious but didn't have much time @mikesalyh only clearing AppData of the game, tutorial screen was made in the end so i didn't have much time to make game stop) probably should've made like question mark button @maindric you're probably right! adding another controll is easy. As i mention, tutorial was made in really sort time @jetthesimon this is my first approach on pixel art, thank you very much for feed back) music was made by randomly clicking in BoscaCeoil...)
Love how the balloon acts/follows - that looks really nice. Controls feels good, game looks good, sounds good. And although I couldn't manage 500 points I at least got over 300. Had to try a few games to be sure I tried all the power ups :)
Loved the balloon physics. It got interesting when I realized the wasps were slightly following me so I could hang out low, then quickly climb up to pounce on them from above. Good job. I managed to score 511 before giving up.
That's a really fun game ! :D I really like the ballon idea :)
Pretty cool idea, the movement was smooth af, music was kinda annoying though
Very fun and engaging game. The concept of keeping a balloon alive is cool! I had a lot of fun playing it. Excellent work!
Cool! it was really intense, I love the sound effects it really adds to the intensity of the game! good job!
Best game I played so far. Keeping the balloon alive adds a nice twist compared to all of those games where you have to protect the character itself.
@niklasriewald @knason @bereg @murrzipan @ohmyguigui @ubershmekel @thooom thank you so much for all the positive feedback!)
It's even better than "Bee Movie"
nice movement and graphics, good job! Anybody 500+ points?)
I like the clever take on the theme! The notion of defending a balloon from bees made me laugh. That music though... it got old pretty quickly. Overall a good experience, however! Nice work!
The balloon physics were really well done. I liked how it slightly squished while moving.
Nicely done! As other have said before me, the balloon physics are great. Not only looking good, but also contributing to the gameplay itself. I'm not good enough to survive for long each time, so I probably haven't discovered most of what it has to offer. Did you add (or have you considered adding) powerups that temporarily modify balloon physics (like invert gravity so the baloon flows down instead of up, or maybe sideways, or reduce/increase balloon weight)?
Cool concept and a lot of nice variety in enemy types and powerups! Good controls. Balloon physics are a little too unpredictable.
Cute idea. The balloon's reactions to the player's movements were great. They actually made me laugh a couple of times, oddly enough. Great work. The music could use some tweaking, though. It was a bit harsh sounding.
Love the idea of having to keep you balloon alive. At some point in the game I started to try to avoid balloon upgrade to keep it from the bees darts.
