Become a tattoo artist… a very drunk one. Armed with shaky hands and a buzzing machine, your mission is to ink the perfect lines. Follow the stencil if you dare, or just forget the rules and create in freestyle mode.

You’ve got one tattoo to finish before your cigarette burns out. No pressure.

This is a cool game with a really nice visual style. I wish there was a scoring system to see how accurately I drew the tattoo, that would be great. Also, I found a bug where after upgrading the cursor speed, my hand flew to the top left corner and stopped moving

I had the same bug Kkritikov had, made me end my run early, unfortunately. That aside, the game is amazing! The atmosphere is just perfect; I love the music and SFX to death! The originality of the idea is incredible; everything is pretty much great. The only downside is that I mourn for the poor souls who’ll have these tattoos on their bodies for the rest of their lives, lol. Great work!

Wow this game looks amazing! The art is all very impressive. I really like the mood and energy of the one hand with a cigarette, and the other one just one handing a tattoo. I was hoping for a finale where you get to do a tattoo on an actual person and get a score or something. The upgrades were fun, but playing on medium I felt like after just one stability upgrade I basically was good to go, and spent the rest on just having more ink.

Overall really good entry, surprising that you could pull off that music in the span of one weekend! I assume the choir was sampled? I don't know how else you could have done that lol.

Cool idea, same bug as already mentioned, upgrading cursor speed messes up the hand and I'm unable to draw more tattoos.

I really liked the premise, style and atmosphere. Would have hoped some rating and more ink. This world and mechanics could be taken as a base for a bigger game!

The pixel art color palette is so pretty! I also like the overall concept of the game, it's simple yet what makes it different is how you deliver it.
I love the music and SFX too, I think it fits well with the vibe. It's kinda hard to get 3 stars though, but it might be my skill issue haha;; overall great job!

Now I know how tough it is to be a tattoo artist :D. The game and music is super addictive. The art looks amazing too. Nice work!
anaticula7 Oct 2025, 14:14
Graphics is so stylish! Freestyle mode seems convenient enough to be a standalone pixel art drawing app. Super cool and fun game!

Amazing atmosphere and pixel art style! The concept of being a drunk tattoo artist is hilarious and unique, though the cursor speed upgrade bug needs fixing. 😅

It's so fun! The graphics and color schemes are beautiful, and the cat tattoo artist is both cute and cool! The music is perfect for the theme of the game.

play this while blasted to get an immersive experience
Crygos7 Oct 2025, 21:36
Awesome! I think I encountered a small bug. At some point the needle went to the top left corner and I could not get it back to the drawing area (happened at the third tattoo or so). Apart from that, it was a great experience. The music is nice and the gameplay is cool.
Lehmy8 Oct 2025, 00:04
Nice game, I like the artstyle and the execution of the mechanics, especially that the improvements are noticeable, but not too strong. Also, it's great that you could fix the bug so fast. Overall, a nice job!
rodney fan8 Oct 2025, 02:10
Fun game i enjoyed it, i tried it with my drawing tablet too and it eliminates alot of the shaking.

OldDog8 Oct 2025, 03:21
This is one of my favorite games! The overall experience is amazing — the visuals are detailed and polished, and I love how you can upgrade after each drawing. It’s really impressive! The only downside is that the content feels a bit short. If there were more to do beyond drawing, it would be absolutely perfect. ★★★★★

absolutely genius concept and so well executed, I got humbled real quick after the first round and it was fun to slowly get better results as I got more upgrades!

Even though I was playing on easy, I won't lie: it was pretty satisfying when I got three stars. Took like 10 upgrades and it's probably the easiest tattoo, but still. Fun idea!

Wow, this is a lot of fun to play. But the higher the level, the more boring it gets. 5-10 minutes is fine. It's perfect for jam.

I have four things to say:

1 - I loved the game;
2 - The art is beautiful (the color palette was very well chosen);
3 - A choir with a black beat sounds really interesting;
4 - I, drunk or not, would get a tattoo in the same disastrous way :D

The speed cursor bug has already been discussed, so I won't talk about it (OPS!)

Congratulations!

Really clever take on the theme. Love all the diegetic UI its a really nice touch, while it did take me a while to figure out the cigarette was the timer, i love that detail.
The audio was great, really chill.
The addition of the upgrades each round is a really nice way to make me want to keep engaging with the game.
Really solid entry!

The music and atmosphere, the buzz, I spent several hours in the game.

I got five different tattoos, and then they started repeating themselves, so I decided I'd beaten the game.

Great idea, I liked it.

"I really love this game—it truly gives me the perfect feeling of being drunk. But I feel like my skills are really terrible; it’s a bit hard to play, haha. Still, the mechanics are super cute, and I even get to collect the abstract tattoos I made at the end. The game’s interface and art are amazing, and the overall completeness of the game is really high."

Such a cool game — I got way more hooked than I expected! You just can’t stop until you get three stars on every level! The visual style is awesome, that’s for sure. And the background soundtrack fits the game perfectly — great choice!

The game’s integrated UI is neat. How did you implement the star system? does it simply check fill vs negative fill area?
Porcupine Sashimi10 Oct 2025, 17:53
HAHA loved this game! I love how I could collect the images :)

voidsrcauthor10 Oct 2025, 22:02
@willoxs Yes, the algorithm checks how closely your pixel array matches the stencil array.
motatom11 Oct 2025, 04:04
love the graphic and gamplay! It's a bit challenging, probably because I'm using the touchpad. Overall it's a very fun game, great job!
CaptAndrey
CaptAndrey11 Oct 2025, 18:10
Interesting concept! It was kinda hard at the start. I’d suggest adding some simple images (like a heart) on the first levels.

torcado12 Oct 2025, 03:36
this is wonderful! really cute idea, great music, fantastic art. i loved all the preview designs. I think there's more to be desired from the gameplay itself, and i find the upgrades to be a little arbitrary. but trying to draw with a drunk cursor is very silly and fun. great stuff :)

I really enjoyed it! Kind of hit that nostalgia of starting out as a kid drawing stuff again.

One QoL that I would really want is a way to say "I'm done" if you still have ink or cig left

First read it as Drun-kink and had a very different expectation of where the game was going.

Anyway, I've learnt a valuable life lesson that the longer I smoke the more time I have to do art

I really liked the concept itself! And I also enjoyed playing the game (which is rare for jam games to be honest).
I got a lot of pleasure when I was able to draw several tattoos on two stars in the usual mode.

I would add more music that would alternate, since the soundtrack starts to get boring over time.
Creative success to you!

P.S. I drew myself with my boyfriend in free mode.

Well this game is just wonderful. I loved the music and once I got the stabilize upgrade, I was mostly able to follow the lines pretty accurately. This is such a cool idea for a game and it's really well made and polished!

Visually, the game looks great. It was very atmospheric, it was very pleasant to play, although the gameplay is not addictive. I'm giving you the maximum score.
