Title: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon [WITHDRAWN] Post by: Mike Lee on February 23, 2009, 01:26:55 PM :gentleman: Good day fellow gentlemen! I was on my afternoon constitutional when I was serendipitously accosted by a poor wretched boy. My usual stance would be to ignore such riff-raff looking for a penny to feed themselves, but this boy was not looking for any charity at all! Oh ho, instead he was distributing this unusual pamphlet. I submit this to you fellow sirs for your approval.

I hope that once this "Hot Air Balloon" comes to our fine county I shall be the first to enter its cockpit and navigate the skies.

Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: Traveller on February 23, 2009, 02:05:23 PM As awesome as that is, I misread the word in the very lower right.
The "P" didn't quite look like a "P". More like an "F". Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: Hempuli‽ on February 24, 2009, 06:28:27 AM At first I didn't even realize it wasn't a real one. Very awesome poster!
Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: BMcC on February 25, 2009, 10:02:36 AM This seems like it could be very close to the concept I would have done.
Godspeed. :gentleman: Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: ExciteMike on March 06, 2009, 12:00:14 PM poster...so....awesome... :tearsofjoy:
Couldn't figure out what was being referred to in the lower right corner, though. Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: genericuser on March 06, 2009, 02:07:36 PM poster...so....awesome... :tearsofjoy: Couldn't figure out what was being referred to in the lower right corner, though. That's Gravity Bone (http://www.blendogames.com/). That being said, awesome poster :) Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: vdgmprgrmr on March 06, 2009, 10:53:26 PM Mmm poster poster poster.
I think my impression of this game is skewed now because of the poster being so awesome... Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: Günter on March 06, 2009, 11:40:27 PM That image is saved so hard, you have no idea. Now you just have to make a game that lives up to it. If it is infused with the same charming wit that is displayed in this delightful pamphlet, then I will consider the task accomplished. :gentleman:
Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon Post by: Mike Lee on April 05, 2009, 10:17:07 PM Yes, the game is still being made! Unfortunately, not in time for the deadline. I have bits and pieces of a game and I'm dedicated to seeing this through to completion. So while I will withdraw from said competition with no finished product, here are two images from The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon.

Title: Re: The Marvelous Hot Air Balloon [WITHDRAWN] Post by: Synnah on April 09, 2009, 03:48:02 AM It does look great! It has the low-colour style of an early-90s PC game. I hope you keep working on this!
