Absolutely hilarious concept! I especially enjoyed the crylaugh emoji's that popped out of the balloon at the end. I do wish this game had more sound though (nothing crazy, just some ambience like whistling wind or a room tone).
Simple but I like it! I definitely agree with dninosores, some ambience would really help out. Some audio feedback when clicking on the balloon will also be nice, eg a balloo bouncing sound whenever you click on it. Otherwise good job!
This is a simple concept. i like how the game coheres to the theme effectively but i think gameplay wise this game is lacking. the gameplay loop was simple. i would have liked to see a go back on the longer game modes. the emoji burst was a funny ending which lightened the mood.
It's really simple, but nice. I enjoyed it more on the short and medium mode, since it was more interactive so it made it fun. I agree maybe a few more sounds would have been nice, like when clicking the balloon and maybe some subtle music? But the pop is really satisfying, I really like it, and you get all those emojis flying out. I also love that it will remember where you left off, for those who are crazy enough to try the extra long and can't be around forever.
Took me a little while to understand that I am not supposed to pop the balloon right away. :) Don’t have much to add to the feedback apart from everything that was said above, but I have to tell you that the sad emoji explosion at the end is brilliant, never fails to make me laugh!
I wish the balloon had more balloon like physics. I wanted to bop it everywhere and I was disappointed when I realized that's not the point.
It may be the saddest day, but the Emojis still made me happy. Truly contemporary art. POP/10
