Stroop's Balloons
The Game
Being the guy who gives out balloons on a busy carnival day is hard. Being the guy who has to paint said balloons while giving them out is even harder.
When your boss refuses to give you the day off despite only having white coloured balloons on the day, you found yourself having to mix colours and manually paint them.
Not only that, but you have to deal with impatient customers who give out contradicting orders? It's gonna be a long day.
Instructions:
Controls:
- Left mouse click to interact with UI and customers (You are able to fully play the game with just the mouse)
- Toggle ESC to pause/unpause game
- Keyboard hotkeys (you lose some mouse hovering effects):
- 1,2,3,4 to give balloon to the customer. The numbers correspond to the customer queueing position from left to right.
- Left arrow key, paint balloon red
- Down arrow key, paint balloon blue
- Right arrow key, paint balloon yello
- Up arrow key, pop balloon
- Enter to toggle the cheatsheet
Gameplay instructions:
- Words with black font -> Give the balloon coloured to what the word says
- Coloured words -> Give the balloon coloured based on the colour inside the word
- Balloon picture -> Give the balloon according to the colour of the picture
Inspiration for the game:
I'm terrible when it comes to color mixing. I'm even worse when it comes to the Stroop color test. I thought, why not combine the two things I'm terrible at, that will be great right?
So here we are after one week, this game. Hope anyone playing it has fun!

This game was really fun to play. I got a little stressed when I had to give multiple people balloons, but it was still fun. Good work.
Thank you so much for playing the game and even making a video about it! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
You're welcome, you did a great job. Keep up the good work.
