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.



While I am certainly a bit put off by the nature of this contraption (by what mechanism do I control myself?), my curiousity still finds the better of me. 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.

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".

At first I didn't even realize it wasn't a real one. Very awesome poster!

This seems like it could be very close to the concept I would have done.

Godspeed. Gentleman

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

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.

It does look great! It has the low-colour style of an early-90s PC game. I hope you keep working on this!
