Balloon Quest, The Get Grumpy Games 2012

This is an ambitious 2.5d indie game platformer which will win you over with a lot of love for detail and fresh gameplay mechanics. The game revolves around the development of two little kids: a boy and his sister with her balloon. They live through adventures together and have to learn how to cooperate as they are diving further and further into their own, lovingly designed fantasy world. The game addresses not only practiced players but the whole family, and is also suitable for a younger target group. The gameplay requires both skills as well as riddle solving abilities and combinatory thinking, and shows that computer games also provide a ton of fun without any violence and bloodshed. It's developed in Unity3D. Work on the game started in late 2010, when a group of students at the University of Applied Sciences, Salzburg, got together to develop a concept for a game project. The game features a multitude of both active and passive combinable abilities for both characters, including running, jumping, floating, fighting & throwing. The combination of both characters and their unique features is a key gameplay element not seen in this form before. The gameplay requires both skills as well as riddle solving abilities and combinatory thinking, and allows the player to learn and master all features on the fly. Collectables, Skins and Highscores provide additional motivation, the possibility for customization and reasons to replay levels more often. Animated ingame Cutscenes and full voice overs guide through an imaginative story set in a fantastic world. The game adresses the whole family, also especially a younger target group.
