Wally is most likely the first game by Mark Essen. It is a short platformer with seven levels (+ a bonus level) where the player controls Wally in his quest to pop all red balloons. Why? One of the level introduction screens suggests that they were talking about his mom just the other day.
With a limited number of lives, Wally need to do a lot of platforming jumping, collect keys, pop the balloons, and make it to the exit gate safely. There are also a few extra lives to collect and at the end of each level points are awarded.
