More about this game
In Hot Air Balloon Ascent, your goal is to fly as high as possible. You must manage your heat and fuel while avoiding obstacles like storm lanes and lightning. Collect fuel and other supplies to keep flying. The game ends if you run out of fuel or lose all your hull hearts. You start with 100 fuel and 3 hull hearts. The difficulty increases as you progress through the levels, with new weather conditions like rain and frost appearing. The game features three modes: story, daily flight, and endless.
Tips
- Keep an eye on your heat gauge. If it reaches 99, your balloon will overheat and you won't be able to rise.
- Collect blue supplies to gain a shield charge. You can hold up to 3 charges.
- Watch out for rain and frost. Rain reduces your lift, and frost makes steering heavy.
