Symbols
Am I the only one who noticed that the little make & female symbols next to creating units are backwards? Next to the male is the female etc?
Reviews for "Balloon Town"
Issues
First off, playing this game as intended is very awkward. You can only give commands to populations, like all miners or all doctors, when micromanaging individual Ballons would really help you achieve your goals. Meanwhile, we can't tell why each Balloon is unhappy and leaves the town. Combine that with the fact that some of the objectives are just ridiculously easy (e.g. make 20 females), and you get a game that is only marginally satisfying.
Then, of course, there are the bugs. All my Balloons disappeared at one point, and I could only tell what they were doing because new Baby Balloons appeared, and then I got a warning that one of them left town. And your counters are all messed up: you can only have 6 miners in a 7-miner capacity mine, and I lost one level for having a population of only 2, when I could clearly see three happy Balloons in my town.
Overall, a poorly executed game.
Balloom Town-LOL
WTF Its more likely to be a girl`s game ...
With improvements this can be a good good game
This game has potential, but as other people have pointed out there are a few issues.
Firstly is the commands; baloonies who have just been spawned and have grown up from children don't pick up the command that you have on the jobless baloonies until you go and click on the command you want again and workers sometimes have a delayed reaction to a new command you give e.g i had my miners 50% working and 50% breeding i wanted them 100% working and clicked the command but i was still hearing the popping of spawning children a few seconds after.
secondly is the balloonies moods and leaving the towns. i was told that they leave where there isn't a vacancy in a house for them yet on a level where i had only four baloonies and one house which holds about 7 one started to become sad and was close to leaving, perhaps there's another aspect that needs to be explained?
thirdly is that when you tell a jobless person to work you can't pick what job they do, i had plenty of miners and i was needing doctors for the objective yet most of the bloonies ignored the two empty hospitals and went for mining so perhaps manual controll bloonies would be better or a bit of both if possible.
lastly is that you got the gender signs the wrong way round on unit spawner
I will admit that i didn't play too far into the game but with the issues i've pointed out i knew they were what i was going to get frustrated at later on when things got harder but i hope that i have been helpfull in pointing out the floors of the game and i end this review on a possitive note saying that look forward to seeing a baloon town 2 :)
FAYUL!
you gave mirror to male and gave the sword and shield to female, and he controls are HARD!
