Originally released in 1990 for the GameBoy, ''Balloon Kid'' is a sequel to the NES classic ''VideoGame/BalloonFight''. The player controls a girl named Alice whose goal is to rescue her little brother, who floated away after attaching too many balloons to himself. With two balloons of her own to represent her HitPoints, Alice floats through several stages that scroll from right to left, collecting balloons and avoiding spikes, birds and other enemies.

This game provides examples of:
* BittersweetEnding: After overcoming all sorts of deadly hazards, Alice is finally reunited with her brother. Together they fly back home as the credits roll and the beautiful ending theme plays... and then [[spoiler:a sneaky enemy bumps into Alice, which makes her drop Jim into the sea!]]
* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Birds, bats, crabs, campfires, walking flames, bears, alligators, penguins, crabs, walruses, and more. They want Alice dead for some reason.
* EternalEngine: The eighth and final stage takes place in a factory.
* LostWoods: The second level takes place inside a forest.
* NintendoHard: Watch [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuAJmZa6b-8 this Let's Play of the Famicom port]], if you want to see Hello Kitty make a grown man cry.
* MiniGame: Every so often, Alice can enter one, where balloons rise from four pipes.
* PalmtreePanic: The third stage takes place on a beach. Just watch out for the crabs.
* PressXToDie: Pressing B in midair releases your balloons. If done wrong, you'll crash into [[SuperDrowningSkills the water]].
* RemadeForTheExport: Inverted. The original monochrome Game Boy version was never released in Japan, but it was remade a decade later for the GameBoyColor under the title of ''Balloon Fight GB''. There was also a licensed Famicom port titled ''HelloKitty World'', which replaced the original characters with Sanrio mascots.
* RibcageStomach: The fourth stage takes place inside a whale.
* SlippySlideyIceWorld: The sixth level takes place on a frozen island, full of water, ice and evil walruses.
* SpikesOfDoom: Touching these instantly defeats Alice, regardless of health.
* SuperDrowningSkills: Falling into the water costs you a life. If a fish (or frog) catches you, it drags you into the water, also costing you a life.
* TinCanRobot: The final boss.
* UndergroundLevel: The seventh level.
* XRaySparks: When Alice gets hit by lightning sparks.
