Two Balloons Disarray

Pump these balloons to new heights with the power of friendship, cooperation, and two literal pumps, while avoiding the winged terrors of the sky! In Two Balloons Disarray, a co-operative arcade game, you and your friend (or business associate, enemy – the choice is yours) will control pumps allowing you to breathe life into a pair of balloons tied together on screen. Your common goal is to make your way through an open sky obstructed merely by a flock of fickle birds hellbent on stopping whatever it is you really wanted to do.

Two balloons disarray was developed using unity for an arcade experience; the controllers were engineered using bike pumps, mouses, buttons, an arduino, and other implements. While our primary goal was to provide a fun cooperative arcade experience, we see potential in our game for future IOS and Android adaptation too.
