Game Boy Longplay [055] Balloon Kid

Balloon Kid is a classic arcade platformer, originally released in 1990, where you control Alice, who floats using two balloons to find her missing brother, Jim. The core gameplay involves careful vertical navigation, avoiding flying enemies above and ground threats below, as popping your balloons results in a fall. A distinctive feature is collecting extra balloons to unlock challenging skill tests for bonuses. The game supports solo play or competitive racing against a friend via the Video Link cable, and has been remastered for the Nintendo 3DS.
