I love me some 80s memphis vibe, the menu art and UI look great, the in-game look isnt the worst since you wanted to use 3D for the physics. The game is lacking a score meter tho, and yeah after finishing once the game completely breaks and doesnt restart.
(I know this is probably a Linux issue, but generally using symbols like the ampersand (&) isnt the best idea, for me it didnt let me open from the itch launcher, but opening it outside with raw wine seemed to work, as well as just editing the path, folders and executable name), the sound also seemed to be completely broken for me, and this is actually only specific to this very game, for the future pleeease make a webbuild, I dont want to have to negatively rate this aspect of the game and sound like an asshole just because I use a different platform..
EDIT: ah there is actually no sound, rebooted to test on Windows (I heard some weird slight squeaking so I thought there was something wrong)

The concept is interesting, liked the physics as well. It needs a bugfix but great work.

Interesting Concept. Really liked the balloon physics. Small bug when hitting replay, was unable to play again.

Hi, I liked the physics integration into your game. One thing is that when i pressed play again the game was bugged out. Good work!

The game has an interesting premise.
