Err. The idea is.. He's got a balloon for his head.

I have a feeling I've stolen this idea from somewhere.. But I can't remember where I've seen it.. I just think it would be funny to have a crazy headless guy beat on you, and have a balloon floating around his head.

evil balloon twisty animals, cool, with the human sidekick as a kid mime?

Could I suggest that the main character has a pump that he uses to create the balloon head guys attacks or shapes?

If i ever get round to the main character, thats the plan Jonathan.. An evil (nice cliche coming up) clown. Possibly sideshow luke perry.

he could have a sonic attack....... with that thing you do with balloons ....... and a really cool party trick he could perform for the ladys [;)]

wouldnt take much to take him out though, a small prick? a slight breeze? unless the poping of his 'head' os so deafening it stikes you to the ground, and then he re-inflates himself, agh! oh the horror! he is invincible!

Your concept here is actually very strong. If you took away the human aspect of the balloon guy - and just had a balloon - you could really go to town. As a virtual shapeshifter it could do a number of things:

Got an idea? Turns into a hand with index finger pointing out.
Need to kick someone? Turns into a shoe.
Need a quick getaway - turns into hot air balloon and then deflates crazily.

And what is the hero? Pump guy!
