Begin with a balloon and construct a flying citadel. What kind of airship will you create?
In Balloonists: Air Battles, you take command of a vessel that you assemble yourself. Mount turrets, rockets, and bombs, and find the balance between weight and lift before testing your creation in aerial battles.
Embark on 500 missions across a world of floating islands: repair beacons, protect caravans, defend settlements, and confront powerful bosses. Avoid incoming fire, dismantle enemy ships module by module, and keep your own ship aloft.
Each flight offers a reason to return to the workshop. Earn coins and experience, enhance individual components, and unlock new materials. Modify your weapons, perfect your design, and replay missions to boost your score and collect more stars.
Construct your airship, light the beacons, and restore hope to the skies. Your inaugural flight awaits in your browser.
How to play
Select a campaign mission and get airborne. Achieve the goal and reach the finish line before the time expires. Stay near a broken beacon for 5 seconds to fix it. Maintain your ship and the objects under your protection in top condition to collect more stars.
On a computer: use A/D or the Left/Right arrows to steer the ship; W/S or Up/Down arrows to adjust altitude. Press Q to switch the turret between off, automatic fire, and burst fire modes. Use E or V to drop a bomb, F to launch a rocket, G to activate an electromagnetic pulse, and R to reverse the ship. Press Esc to pause the game.
When playing on a phone, keep your device horizontal. Use the left joystick to fly and the buttons on the right to fire weapons or turn around. Make sure to equip the necessary weapon modules and load up on bullets, rockets, or bombs before taking off.
Between missions, head to the hangar to repair your ship, reload ammunition, and upgrade its components. Begin with the tutorial and follow the instructions to learn the controls.
