Balloon delivers a controller-less mixed reality experience that seamlessly integrates virtual elements into your real-world environment.

We created a full spatial audio identity for Balloon providing 360 degrees of sound that delights with original music, informs people with dynamic and high quality text-to-speech, directs people to objects of importance even if out of view, and adds realism and reinforces people’s actions in surprisingly natural and delightful ways.

The result is a playful and engaging experience that encourages physical movement and interactivity, all within the comfort of your own room.

Reminder of simpler times in our youth

This game is a wonderful experience that brings you back to the joy you felt when playing with balloons as a child. The physics of the game are great and it actually poses quite a challenge to fulfill the objectives. At times i'd say you can even consider a workout.

Fun fun fun!

It's a fun game! The virtual balloon function as real balloon and love how interact in the wall in my room. Great implementation! One suggestion I have is to implement to change to Station mode and Room scale mode. I played with station mode and I wasn't able to get balloon that far away.

Ballon not working

It seems that the balloon feature is not functioning as expected. The individual assisting me has advised me to press the ^ key; however, despite several attempts, I have been unable to achieve any results. I am currently using an Oculus 3.

Very fun but room for improvement

It's a blast from the past but I hope the developers improve some things. I know meta allows you to remove boundaries and the boundaries constantly popping up when I play was annoying. Sometimes the balloons would fly away out of reach. Lastly I hope they add full body support so I could kick up the balloon with my feet. That was my save move as a kid. Edit: 10 months later and the developers still haven't removed the guardian. Looks like they abandoned the game. Shame
