I opted to create it to teach event-driven programming in Scratch through a simple yet engaging game mechanic, fostering interaction and skill development among learners. Plus, it offers an opportunity to explore concepts like timing and coordination in a fun, hands-on way.

Implementing accurate collision detection for mouse clicks and balloon interactions posed challenges, but I resolved them by carefully adjusting sprite positions and utilizing Scratch's built-in collision sensing blocks.

Given more time, I would enhance the game with additional balloon types and power-ups to introduce variety and complexity, providing a more dynamic gameplay experience.
