Balloon Buffoons

Description
In this minigame, each player takes turns inflating a single balloon until it explodes. The exact number of pumps it takes for the balloon to pop is randomly determined, and a range is displayed at the beginning of every round. You pump with the punch button, and you can pump about 4-5 times on each of your turns. If you choose not to pump at all, you will be forced to pump one time before your turn ends. The balloon will begin to flash once it is close to popping.

The ranges for each balloon are the same every time, and gradually get smaller as the number of players left decreases. If the game is begun with a smaller number of players, the first balloon will have a small range. This way, no matter how many players you start with, each round will be exciting.

Hope you enjoy! Please leave a comment if you have any feedback or bugs to report. Thanks!

Cool minigame, though the description in game is cut off during the second paragraph, so you don't get the full explaination in game. :(

we played with 4 people and it got passed 3-8 pumps and we got locked in the mini game please add a timer to the whole mini game

ケビョク That is a good idea, let me see what I can work up. Maybe when there are 2 players only, I can do 3 balloons, each of which take away 50 health rather than outright kill the player. That way they can play at least 2 rounds.

CaymanS, it is the punch button

Hey, it's me again :3 So I tested the minigame with 2 players, and I think it's quite short. Works like a charm with 3+ players, but I was wondering if this was possible to make the minigame a bit longer when it starts with 2 players.

Thank you! That was the inspiration :)

Awesome ! I really appreciate the quality of this minigame, it definitely has Mario Party vibes :)

Added a visual change of the balloon flashing as it nears its popping point. It always begins at the start of its "range", so you still don't know exactly when it will pop.

I get you now, yeah, i like that idea. It should be possible given the game’s existing mechanics. I’ll give it a shot

Thank you, I think I tried every button but the punching one :PhogsHappy:

What I meant is that when the balloon is within the range when it's likely to explode, there could be a visual change to increase the stress level ! But I don't know if this is technically possible.
