About this game

Balloon Fight turns aerial movement into a contest to stay aloft. Pop rival balloons from above and finish off fallen opponents before they recover. Lightning and the fish below add hazards. A second player can join cooperative or competitive play, while Balloon Trip focuses on surviving a scrolling course.
