Thank you. This one is worth a quick play - like that game in the arcade you may put a few coins in and enjoy for a short time, but never play again after that. I don't recommend Funny World though, that one is not much fun at all.

Playing Balloon Boy, a Sega Megadrive (Genesis in the USA) game. The game was played using the Antstream game streaming service. I'm in the UK, so I guess this was running as a PAL machine. Difficulty is set to Normal, date of play was the 12th September 2021 and score reached was 276,800 points.
It's a fairly basic game and does not make the most of what the Megadrive has to offer technically. Shoot the balloons against a time limit, collect the goodies that may fall and avoid the various bad-guys and heavy weights. Despite it's basic nature, I found it quite fun to play. It would be better if the backgrounds changed a little more frequently. I only ever saw the first one. On Antstream it is a stand alone game, but in the real world it came as a double-game cartridge, the other one being Funny World. Another basic shooting game and not as much fun as Balloon Boy.
Time stamps:
00:22 Antstream game selection. Megadrive confirmed and loading.
00:29 Game loaded.
00:34 Options screen. Skill level Normal selected.
00:50 Game start.
21:14 Time up, last life lost. Game Over. Final score 276,800 points.
