Get the highlights.

  • Heat it. Rise.. No engine and no steering wheel: hold the burner to climb, let the envelope cool or open the vent to sink. The balloon reacts with a delay, as a real one does.

  • Winds aloft. Several altitude layers blow in different directions and change slowly. Climb into the layer that takes you there; every player gets the same wind.

  • Two balloons, five designs. Classic for pilot + 3 and the passenger balloon for pilot + 7, each in Classic Stripes, Rainbow, Sunset, Night Sky and RoadShop.

  • Fly together. Passengers stand in the basket with the pilot, and the pilot can hand over control in flight.

The pilot instrument panel with altitude, envelope temperature, gas, compass and the winds aloft

Built for your server.

  • Real buoyancy

    Lift from the envelope temperature and thinner air at altitude, with inertia, drag, gas consumption and a hard ceiling.

  • Steering assist

    Optional W/A/S/D steering for casual servers, or set it to zero for pure wind flying.

  • Flame, light and sound

    Burner flame and light, with positional burner, ignition, vent and pilot light sounds that everyone nearby hears.

  • Rental at launch sites

    Three launch sites with an attendant, a size and design picker and payment from cash or bank. Add as many as you like.

  • Permissions

    Decide who may rent, who may fly and who may ride along: by job and grade, player identifier or ACE.

  • Own models

    Detailed envelopes, baskets and burners with level-of-detail versions, so balloons stay visible from far away.

Drop it in and fly.

Why Road Balloon
Flown, Not Driven

A balloon has no engine and no steering wheel. You fly it with heat and height, and that is exactly how Road Balloon works.

Real Buoyancy

Lift comes from the envelope temperature and thinner air at altitude, with inertia, drag, gas consumption and a hard ceiling. The balloon reacts with a delay, as a real one does.

Winds Aloft

Several altitude layers blow in different directions and change slowly. Climb into the layer that takes you there. Every player gets the same wind, and near the coast the upper winds turn inland.

Two Balloons, Five Designs

Classic for pilot + 3 and Passenger balloon for pilot + 7, each in Classic Stripes, Rainbow, Sunset, Night Sky and RoadShop. Own detailed models with level-of-detail versions for long view distances.

Pilot Instrument Panel

Altitude, height above ground, climb rate, envelope temperature with the hover mark, gas, compass with drift and a live wind profile of every layer. Metric or imperial.

Fly Together

Passengers stand in the basket with the pilot. The pilot can hand over control in flight, and an optional steering assist (W/A/S/D) makes flying easier on casual servers.

Flame, Light and Sound

Burner flame and light, plus positional burner, ignition, vent and pilot light sounds that everyone nearby hears.

Rental at Launch Sites

Three launch sites with an attendant, a size and design picker and payment from cash or bank. Add as many sites as you like.

Permissions

Decide who may rent, who may fly and who may ride along: by job and grade, player identifier or ACE.
