All Balloon Hopper Challenges

Balloon Hopper Challenges

Balloon Hopper is a different version of the Explosive Evasion minigame. The courses are instead held on top of hot air balloons, and players must pass through different rings as they navigate the course.

The goal remains the same: reach the finish line as fast as possible. Click on the links in the table above to see tips on how to beat each Balloon Hopper stage!

Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon I

For Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon I, you'll need to jump and land within all the rings . Even if there is space to walk on other balloons, do not step outside of the rings or you'll fail the challenge.

Balloon Hopper: Foodie Bee Balloon

In Balloon Hopper: Foodie Bee Balloon, you may need to do some double jumps to reach the other platforms and balloons. Turn right as you jump through the moving ring. You can also dash as you land to shave seconds from your elapsed time.

Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon II

Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon II has two moving rings that you'll need to jump through. Once you jump onto the balloon after the first moving ring, you might need to turn a bit to the left to catch the second moving ring and reach the next platform.

Balloon Hopper: Cloud Top Balloon

For Balloon Hopper: Cloud Top Balloon, you can cut your jumps as soon as you're within the radius of the rings and dash as you land to go faster. Take note that there'll be two moving rings that you need to pass through in succession near the finish line.

Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon III

Balloon Hopper: Floof Balloon III has the same moving rings that you'll need to pass through, as with the previous Floof Balloon stages. Fortunately, Balloon Hopper V is pretty straightforward, and relatively short!
