In [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], balloons appear in the sixth part of [[Eat at Joe's]], in [[the Caves of Skops]]. They are yellow in color with the word "Joe" written in white.

Balloons appear in ''[[Rayman Designer]]'' and its spin-offs as core gameplay elements in several levels. They appear as purple balloons bearing the white letter ‘R’ – thus giving them a resemblance to [[Rayman's symbol]] – often appear in the new areas, and the played can also add them to their own custom levels. These balloons levitate in one spot; [[Rayman]] can inflate them by punching them with his [[telescopic fist]]. When he stands on them, they deflate within a fraction of a second, creating new platforming challenges not present in [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. | Balloons appear in ''[[Rayman Designer]]'' and its spin-offs as core gameplay elements in several levels.

In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', a hot air balloon also appears at the end of the first phase of [[the Iron Mountains]], where it takes [[Rayman]] to the second phase. Another one can also be found in its remake, ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', in [[Rainbow Creek]], where it takes [[Rayman]] to [[the Precipice]]. Since the two hot air balloons are identical, it is possible that they are the same one. | |||

In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], balloons are of yellow and green colouration, and will automatically inflate upon [[Rayman]]'s approach, they burst immediately after [[Rayman]] has bounced off of them, but will reinflate soon after. | |||
