Clowns and Balloons

Overview

Clowns & Balloons is a clone of the 1978 Bally/Midway arcade game CLOWNS, which itself was a clone of the 1977 Exidy arcade game CIRCUS. Your mission is to bounce your clown off of a moving trampoline and try to burst all of the balloons. The longer you keep him jumping, the higher (and faster) he will go, which you need to do in order to burst the highest balloons. You get bonus points for completing each row of balloons as well.

This game was never officially released on the Atari 5200. A user rom hack of the 1982 Datasoft Atari 8-bit computer cartridge ported the game to work on the Atari 5200.
