    @Paul_Is_Drunk: Also on second try: lvl 50 and 220640 points. Incredibly easy game, just fart as loud as you can just before you get noticed, no trick to it at all. Not really a weekend timewaster because of that :) #hotflashes

    I would fart anywhere at anytime. Holding in farts is painful.

    Plus, it's hilarious to look at other people's faces when they smell a "Silent But Deadly" especially when you look like you didn't actually pull that one off.

    Also, as for a protip, slide it to the right until you see a question mark, release, and then put it back when it's all clear. I made it to floor 50 that way with 126,000 points maybe.

    That kinda sucks. Everyone knows the real Balloon Boy game consists of one main game supported by mini games.

    The main game is rather like a text adventure/dating sim game, where you play as the parents planning the hoax after their recent stint on Wife Swap. Then you get to play the mini games; in 'Pretend to hide' you play as Falcon sitting in his room while his parents fail to prepare him for the media and 'Balloon Blow' where you control wind currents keeping the balloon afloat. As well as many more! Back in the main game you finally get to appear on TV and try to keep Falcon from blurting out the truth.

    That part is almost impossible.

    @Heartless141, dood!: Lol @ that video, love collage humor especially their POVs.

    I read somewhere that a director or writer was joking about making a movie but you know Hollywood they'll make almost anything into a movie even if it pisses off fans of the original source , I'm looking at you RE and DB movies. #timewasters

    Imagine if, instead of making a flash-based game based on whatever retarded story the media is fawning over at the time, the people spent those few hours working on a cure for cancer or hemorrhoids.

    That would suck, we'd have nothing to do during work. #timewasters
