The pixel art and palette are really nice. Took forever to smoke a cigarette, I must be doing it wrong. I like how much coughing is going on and the other person just looks at you suspiciously.

Such a simple game, but all parts come together nicely. Even like the little wait between the window going red and the door actually opening works well. Every time I was like "oh shit, did I pushed it too far? Am I getting caught?" Fantastic!

Such nice art, simple gameplay loop. I felt like it was taking a while for each progress marking of the cigarrete going down was a bit slow, but still really good stuff :D

The art is beautiful, but what's impressive is the concept! The very definition of finding something charming and simple that works really well and perfecting it.

The art is very nice! It's cool to see an actual artist make something, in this barrage of programmer-art.
The concept is simple but it works, i had fun playing it. But I wasn't sure if the cigarette got smaller or not? I never reached the end haha.

Well done!

Great game, I love the art style, it feels very artistic! Btw, the coughing makes me a bit concerned about her health.

Smoking should not be stress-inducing haha, loved the game! I was surprised that there was another level actually

The most addictive game of red light green light I have ever played! The art work and atmosphere is absolute peak!
I got to admit tho I'm not a good smoker... When exactly am I supposed to inhale and when to exhale? Is it better to have a long drag or multiple small ones. And the coughing would have been better if it was not on every hiding but just sometimes?
Those red eyes of my boss will haunt me in my dreams... :sweat_smile:

The art style is really interesting and reminds me of some fun moments when I used to smoke. However, there’s some noticeable delay with the controls on the web version.

I enjoyed the game. It was very fun in its simplicity. The mechanics of controlling the cigarette are simple and very clear. No complicated commands. Just the addiction to smoking.
The Gameboy color palette was very well chosen.
Sometimes the controls get stuck. There were times when I pressed RMB or LMB and nothing happened. I had to press them several times.
I laughed a lot when the "boss" stopped at the door and just stared with one eye.
Did you imagine any more levels for the game? Different people? Different cigarettes? Different speeds?
That would be funny.
I managed to finish both levels. The only difference was the colors?

Congratulations!
