Keep It Up is a timeless classic. You may know it as "Keep Up the Balloon." Whatever you call it, this app brings back the endless entertainment that this innocent game brings. How to play: The goal is to bounce up the white balloon as many times as possible with the black paddle at the bottom. Tap or swipe the screen to move the black paddle side to side. Try to hit the balloon in the center so it doesn't bounce away! Each bounce earns one point. Try to beat your high score! You may think this game is easy when you get to 5 points. Try getting to 100 though, and you will see that it requires a great deal of patience and focus. The elegantly simple graphics of this game make it all the more enjoyable. The delightful colors and the classic sounds make this a game to remember. Enjoy!
