(6/4/2024) Hey all - in response to feedback, we've added a new mechanic: you can press "down" to cancel balloons/jetpacks mid-boost. You can see more details about this patch here.
(6/3/2024) Hey all - We've integrated with the Newgrounds leaderboard!! It's a race to the top! Please note that the internal leaderboard is separate from the Newgrounds one as Upbound is also available on other platforms :) However, your score is always uploaded to both!

Pretty good game over, can be nice for a few minutes :) I enjoyed the dude talking, i think it added a bit of charm to the game overall
Action platformer flash. Graphics are mostly just the sky and clouds. There could be more going on in the background. Using your score to purchase things in a shop would be a good idea.
This is Peak.
