It helps to mention your device model, its iOS or Android version and the level you were on.
How to play
One clown waits on the low end of the seesaw while the other flies through the air. Slide the seesaw under the falling clown and catch them on the raised end: their landing flings the other clown up into the balloons. Pop every balloon to finish the level. Miss a clown and you lose one of your five lives.
- Steer with the side buttons, by tilting your device, or both. From level 4 it's tilt only.
- Catch clowns near the end of the plank for the strongest launch.
- Balloons are worth 10, 20 or 30 points by row. Clearing a whole row earns a row bonus.
- Pop the red bonus balloon that sometimes drifts by near the end of a level for 250 points.

Frequently asked questions
Tilting doesn't move the seesaw
Hold the device in landscape and tilt it left or right, like a steering wheel. Tilt only works while a level is in play, not on menus. If it still doesn't respond, close the app fully and open it again.
How do I turn the music or sound effects off?
Use the music and sound toggles in the game. Your choice is remembered the next time you play.
How does the leaderboard work?
The leaderboard is optional and uses Game Center on iPhone and iPad, or Google Play Games on Android. Sign in from the 🏆 Leaderboard link on the title or game-over screen. Once signed in, every score of 100 or more is submitted, and the leaderboard keeps your best. Nothing is sent until you sign in.
I chose "No thanks" to the leaderboard. Can I still join?
Yes. Tap the 🏆 Leaderboard link on the title or game-over screen at any time to sign in.
What do tips do?
The whole game is free, with nothing locked away. Tips from the tip jar are optional one-off purchases that support development. They are not subscriptions and don't unlock extra content, so there is nothing to restore on a new device. For refunds, contact Apple or Google Play, who handle all payments.
Can I reset my best score?
Your best score is stored only on your device. Deleting and reinstalling the app resets it. Scores already on the leaderboard are kept by Game Center or Google Play Games.
Does the game need an internet connection?
No. Everything plays offline. A connection is only needed for the leaderboard and the tip jar.
