▶ Play Now — Free!Aim your bow at balloons floating up the screen, hold to charge your shot, then release to fire. Miss 10 balloons and the game ends.
| Rule | Details |
|---|---|
| 🎈 Pop Balloons | Pop every balloon before it floats off screen. Fruits that escape do not count as misses. |
| ❌ 10 Misses = Over | You get exactly 10 misses. Each escaped balloon = 1 miss. Reach 10 and the session ends. |
| 💪 Charge Your Shot | Hold longer for a faster, flatter arrow — better for distant targets. Quick tap = slower shot for nearby balloons. |
| 🎯 Triple Shot | Fires 3 arrows at once from Level 10 natively, or by collecting the 🎯 Triple Shot power-up orb. |
| 💾 Auto-Save | Score saves every 60 seconds and on exit — you never lose progress even if the browser closes. |
| 🌊 Side Waves | Every ~25 seconds, 2–4 balloons sweep horizontally — easy combo chains! |
| ∞ Infinite Levels | Every 500 points = +1 Level. No maximum level or score ceiling. |
Charge tip: The "DRAW" bar near the bow shows charge level. Full charge = fastest arrow — ideal for Star Balloons (✨) and Wind Storm weather.
7 balloon types appear as you level up. Each has unique behaviour, points and unlock level.
Escaped balloons = misses. You get exactly 10 before game over. Fruits do NOT count!
10 beautifully drawn fruits fall alongside balloons. Hit them to slice in half for bonus points — fruits never count as misses!
Fruit points are multiplied by your active combo streak. Slicing a Pineapple at ×5 combo = 275 points! Fruits also extend the combo window.
6 power-ups appear during gameplay. Shoot the glowing orb with an arrow to activate — multiple powers can stack at the same time!
Active powers show on the right sidebar with a countdown bar. On mobile, tap the ⚡ Auto Fire orb directly to collect it without firing.
Random weather events occur every 28–50 seconds, lasting 18 seconds. They change balloon speed and drift direction.
Wind Storm tip: Aim 1–2 balloon-widths ahead of the balloon's current position. Use Slow Time power-up during Wind Storm for instant relief!
Combos multiply every point you earn — there is no cap. Building and maintaining streaks is the key to a top-leaderboard score.

Level formula: Every 500 points = +1 Level. Level 10 = 5,000 pts · Level 20 = 10,000 pts · Level 50 = 25,000 pts. No ceiling!
