Balloon

Line 30:

In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', balloons make a much more prominent appearance than they do in any other game in [[Rayman (series)|the series]], both [[Rayman]] and the [[Hoodlum]]s use balloons as a means of traversing various kinds of otherwise impassable territory.

Large balloons known as [[Hoodlum ~~Zeppelin~~]]s carry various [[Hoodlum]]s from one place to another. On their sides they bear crude insignia depicting [[Black Lum]]s. Sets of smaller balloons are used by individual [[Hoodlum]]s as a means of quickly moving across reasonably large gaps and are usually found deep within their territory. The [[Hoodlum]]s like this method of travel because they believe "it’s exotic, it’s sporty and it weeds out the clumsier soldiers". A single [[Hoodlum]] holding one of these balloons is capable of flight, but if they are attacked while holding a balloon, the [[Hoodlum]] inflates and is immediately defeated; if the [[Hoodlum]] is standing on the balloon then the [[Hoodlum]] falls to the ground and attacks. [[Rayman]] often finds their chains of balloons unattended, and can use them as platforms; touching one will cause it to pop, sending [[Rayman]] bouncing high into the air. They quickly re-appear so that they can be used as platforms once more. One minigame, simply titled ‘[[Balloons]]’, revolves solely around this type of type of travel; [[Rayman]] must use chains comprising hundreds of balloons to cross a series of ships and icebergs in [[the Looming Sea]].

The [[cage]]s in which the [[Teensie]]s are imprisoned are usually found suspended in the air by a floating balloon, and disappear when the [[cage]] is broken.
