This is a short gimmick game made in a few weeks as a joke.
It's my first fangame, so hopefully it turned out well.
Fair warning, the music in this game is from actual bands and is probably copyrighted. If you stream the game, it might not be a bad idea to turn off music if this is a concern. (Then again, fangames have been getting away with using vocaloid music which is also copyrighted for years now, so it's probably not a big deal.)

Please note that I was a tester for this game; however, I have no personal relation with Phooey so my review will not be biased that way.

For a short beginner game (and what appears to be Phooey's first released fangame), it is very polished and well-made. I wanna let my balloons go is a short gimmick needle-venture that utilizes a slow-falling balloon mechanic (hence the name), among other gimmicks. The saves are fairly easy and use the gimmick well. The visuals and music choice are quite pleasant, and fit the theme of the game well. Not much else to say here, good all around and pretty fun to boot. Would highly suggest a play.

This game feels like micro-dosing on the Kermit series, it's honestly really nice and chill. The underlying gimmick is this cool balloon mechanic which is really nice. The game even has a final boss, which is quite tricky, I found the purple attacks pretty tough. Enjoy this one a lot, very short and very sweet.

Really fun gimmick needle game, with a boss. The needle has a few gimmicks, all focused on speed and momentum. The game is quite short, I feel like some of the gimmicks had more potential. But at the same time, the shooting mechanic felt primed to be awkward if used much more. The final boss is pretty cool, but it suffers from some nasty attack imbalance, and the main gimmick of the game is only used for one attack, which was kind of a let down. Overall, recommended for people who like needle with uncommon gimmicks.

Great game overall, however the boss is like hard

Insane for a first fangame though. Good job!
