I was testing out code to see how multiple balloon copies would work. Unfortunately I do not have that much space remaining in the bank that has the balloon code. I made some separate code in a different bank to test out movement and such but while I got it working most of the time (I need to work out all of the collision statements), when I tested with the other options I had scanline issues again. It is looking less likely that I will be able to implement this. The only other option I considered was to make a duplicate of the bank and implement the changes for the one balloon, which is a lot of work and I am at this point not sure I can fit it all in one bank with the space I have left.
I am going to still tweak this a bit and see if I can get it to work but I am also thinking of difficulty. Even if it looks good and plays I am not sure it will be worth the increased difficulty. Just from my tests if you do not grab the balloon on the far left or far right then if you grab one in the middle you have to get the next up top which is hard.
