Balloon Fight is an action game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. This is an arcade style game that features three game modes.

Game A is the main game where the player controls a character with a pair of balloons attached to him. The player is able to fly through the air by rapidly tapping A or holding down B. Hitting the birds' balloons is the objective of the player. When a bird's balloon is popped, it floats to the ground where it will attempt to refill a new balloon. At this time, the player must knock the bird into the water. Once all of the birds have been defeated, the player moves on to the next level. When a bird or other obstacle hits the player from above, one of the player's balloons pop. If both of the player's balloons are popped, the player loses a life.

Game B is a two-player version of Game A.

Game C is called Balloon Trip. In this game, the player flies through the sky avoiding enemies and obstacles. Getting hit by anything will end the game.

This is a collection of multiple Balloon Fight hacks combined into one. There are hacks that may appear familiar, some more obscure than others, and there are some hacks that are appearing for the first time, all in this collection.

This collection came about from a childhood fascination in old NES multicarts, and preserving the projects inspired by Balloon Fight.

Some of the more obscure hacks in this multicart include: [u]Fish War[/u], [u]Iwata Edition[/u], [u]Balloon Fight X2[/u], [u]Shadows Edition[/u], [u]Zero Gravity[/u], and the newly discovered, [u]Killer Kitty[/u].

In addition, for the first time ever, courtesy of mishra's 4 Players Hack, the level hacks, Cosmic Balloon Assault and Board Fight, can now be played with up to 4 players!

A full list of included hacks is available in the readme, along with the authors involved. Please check out and support their original Balloon Fight hack releases, as well as their other projects!

This hack uses the BPS patching format. Please download the beat utility by byuu and refer to the readme file for appropriate patching instructions. Patches are included for both the Japanese and American versions.

This hack uses the MMC5 mapper, so please use a compatible emulator. At the time of its initial release, it works well in FCEUX 2.2.3 and Mesen 0.9.9. It has not been tested on real hardware.

For any inquiries, please refer to the readme for contact information, or reach out in this thread on the Romhacking.net message board. Thank you.
