DON'T POP THE BALLOON
Don't Pop the Balloon is a challenging co-op adventure that ties you and your friend to a single balloon with a delicate string. Your goal is clear: move in perfect harmony and reach the end of the level without popping the balloon.
DISTANCE = CONTROL
Use the distance between you to control the balloon:
•
Get closer: The balloon rises
•
Move apart: The balloon lowers
•
Too far apart: The string stretches and the balloon pops!
You must maintain this balance to survive tight spaces and traps.
