BLIMPS is an open-world adventure RPG that puts you in the captain's chair of your own blimp cargo company. Armed with water, fire, ice cannons, and a couple of hanger Robots to help you on your way. Can you learn to make it in this world of BLIMPS only to escape it?
With a bit of perseverance, you might be the one to escape from this world of multiplying BLIMPS! So take to the skies and safely deliver cargo or try to pirate cargo from another blimp if you dare.
This rogue-lite puzzle game involves flying around, exploring, crafting, hacking, harvesting, smuggling, and racing to be the first to find the Moon Crystal. And don't forget about the elusive Mars Rock!

EARN 11 ACHIEVEMENT STAMPS IN YOUR PASSPORT: BLIMPS features 11x unique achievement stamps that players can earn in their passports through dedicated gameplay.
DAFFODIL "MEDAL OF HONOR" STAMP: Retainers of this passport achievement stamp can complete the game in about 2 hours if they know what they are doing and are awarded a lower score bonus for doing so. Ed says, "BLIMPS can be almost completely finished in about 13 minutes if you are a good hacker and know what you are doing, but you won't get the Daffodil "No Cheat Codes" Stamp bonus."
77 TASKS TO COMPLETE: What are the 77 tasks? Great question. They are a mystery...
BLIMPS also features unique sound fx and an instrumental soundtrack performed by the band Ashtronaut.
BLIMPS can be played on a tablet/finger/pencil or keyboard/mouse device. In addition, it features partial gamepad controller support (if you want to fly around the world of BLIMPS "twin-stick shooter style.")
Pay once to get the whole BLIMPS experience. There are no ads, no F2P mechanics, no in-app purchases, and no in-game data collection. Instead, it is just an old-school stand-alone offline family-friendly video game. Rated E for "Everyone."
