Red Balloon can only move left or right, and must use drafts of air to navigate. If Red touches anything, it goes pop! (Except green grass, which is soft!)

A/Left Arrow to move left, D/Right Arrow to move right

This little demo is my submission to the GameDev.tv 2023 Game Jam. The theme was "Life in 2 Dimensions," which to me means not just horizontal and vertical, but a limited point of view and constrained options--so, black and white palette, and very limited control over movement.

Always! Thanks for checking it out!

Woah! this game really hooked me. Enjoyed playing it!

Very good game, will be back to finish it.

Nice idea for a short game. I like how it's challenging but not too challenging. :)

Thank you! And thanks for playing.
