Balloon Fight (G&W)

Balloon Man, a member of Sky Patrol for the Federal Police Department for the Sky Metropolis, has been pursuing the pirate Oiram Repus. The villain has managed to escape and is hiding in his secret lair. His pirate henchmen have torn up the map and attached the pieces to balloons, now floating across the deadly, spark-filled Trip-Sky. Balloon Man must collect the pieces of the map to find and capture Oiram Repus.

Heavily based on Balloon Trip, you move from right-to-left collecting balloons and dodging sparks. Balloon Man loses height constantly, but you must use the Eject button to keep him afloat. Collect 25 balloons to move on to the next phase. The more consecutive balloons you collect, the more points they are worth.

Between each phase a blinking platform appears. Land on it and use your warp to play a bonus round. The bonus round is timed, and you have to try and collect all of the balloons.

After eight phases you play a Boss round. Here you have to dodge the sparks thrown by Oiram Repus for the duration of the time limit. If you succeed then you capture Oiram Repus and the game restarts.
