I remember playing this game on my brother's Atari XE Game machine, then later on down the road I came across the ST version I loved it for the fact I could save and continue my progress.
I think Airball is a real universe. I never forget it, and I travel there in my dreams. My nightmares. I inflate, deflate, fall to my death into spikey pits. Insane? You decide.
In this game you had to move an air filled balloon through 3D iso levels filled with traps (one touch over one of those and you're dead). There were pumps in the levels to regain air as the ball was loosing some by itself. - A great game but hard gameplay, also better play with keyboard. There's a 2D game of this kind named Abombinaball.
