Patch 3

While we work on adding new weapons, game modes and levels, we're also still focused on increasing the performance and stability of the game. This patch includes some significant improvements in these areas that we have made over the past couple of weeks.

Game and Performance Improvements

Signifcantly optimized the graphical performance on each level with an average 50% decrease in draw calls per frame.
Increased graphical performance of player baskets.
Retextured some game items including basket fan, frames, walls and more.
Many weapons and items now have Level of Detail rendering which decreases their polygon count as they move further from view.
Empty weapons no longer stay in your basket. If you drop them in your basket they will despawn immediately. This declutters baskets and makes it easier for players to know which weapons still have ammo. You can still launch empty weapons from your slingshot if you load them instead of dropping them.
Added environmental details into the Ice Cavern and Base Camp.

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug that caused the laser drone to fall out of sky randomly.
Fixed some UI and Navigation bugs.
Fixed a bug that would stop players Special Ability from charging after use in certain situations.

Balloonatics is an action-packed, vehicle-based deathmatch where you pilot your basket while collecting weapons to sink your opponents.

Throw some floating mines or use your slingshot to launch a box of angry bees at your opponent. Put up shield walls to protect yourself while you strategically plan your next move. Guns are too easy! Let's see how well you aim when you have to account for wind and weight. Collect, dodge, and attack to be the last Balloonatic in the air.

VR and Non-VR - No discrimination here!

Play against (or team up with) VR players and non-VR players at the same time. Balloonatics has been developed with both types of players in mind, and balanced to keep things fair no matter how you choose to play.

Team Battles

Invite your friends and take on your opponents while you navigate your way to victory!

Solo Challenges

Put your piloting skills to the test in our single player challenges. Compete on the leader-boards to see how your skills stack up.

Weapons!

Like to play strategic? Deploy some smoke and set a mine trap for your enemies.
Defensive? Set up shields and use your slingshot to take out targets at a distance.
Or just rush in with a bazooka and saw slinger and hope for the best. ¯/_(ツ)_/¯

Peaceful Environments

Thunderstorms? Falling lava rocks? Giant saws? Yeah, our environments are as peaceful as they come.
