I will give you a quick guide through how you can play with the balloons :D

Your journey starts as a helium breathing creature, that has a desire to fill balloons!
The balloons are rezzed in world and thus you need to be at a place where you can rez and which allows physical prims :)
Yes, this means they actually float and are physically interactive!

Inststuctions:

First step:
If you do not want your inflated balloons to fly away immediately, you should either:
- attach the object "balloon pet - hold the rope" to your avatar
- or rez it to a place in world where you want the balloons to be tied to

Second step:
After you are ready, attach the balloon, the balloon is called "Balloon blow..." once you wear it, you can start blowing!
To do that, there are multiple options:
- touch(and hold) the balloon in your mouth
- press "e", or PgUp or whatever control you use for "ascending"/flying up
- left click anywhere (except for other objects that are touch enabled)
But beware! The balloon can just hold 'so much' 'air', if you make it too big, it will pop!

Third step:
Once the balloon has reached your desired size, you still need to release it!
This is currently done by "crouching" (C key, or PgDown)

Final step:
- watch your balloon fly off
- play with your balloon!

Quirks:
You can slap the balloon by touching it, also they interact with some slapping gestures which are designed to also interact with the popular face slappers from -Pretty Liars-.or ONI LAB
To play with this I added a couple of modified slap gestures to the package, that I came across over time.
It explodes if it is hit by something fast (or itself is fast and hits something).

  • It's a balloon!
  • It works
  • It floats (if it has enough helium)
  • It explodes
  • It can be slapped!
