Really liked this one! Puzzles were simple, but clever and fun to navigate through.

Clever puzzles, at times I though there was a problem in the puzzles but no! Went to the end.

I like a good puzzle game, and I like snappy 2d platformer jumps, this game had both. Really clever puzzle design, though perhaps a little heavy on the trial and error approach as you can't see the whole puzzle until you've already failed it multiple times. I enjoyed this little game, and while the music and graphics weren't anything special, they worked for this. Nice job!

The level with the elevators was the one at which I was teleported. From which level I don't remember, 2 or 3 levels later.

@neowedge : there are two levels with elevators, and they're (almost) identical. Seems like you were simply entering the second one :-)

I really like the puzzle mechanics, I didn't get it the first time and had hard time understanding what was going on, but after that, it's really cool, nice work! The art does the job too, it's simple and it works.

@ace17 mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... it's possible :$. I felt I couldn't resolve with just 1 life and I thought I've was sent back. Sorry and thanks!

Solid game! I had a good time playing through it. The graphics and sounds are very primitive but you still manage to establish an atmosphere. The controls are tight, and the puzzles are alright. Great job!

Extremely literal use of the theme. :D
Nice game overall. Would have appreciated some kind of zoom or move screen option as larger puzzles were mostly trial and error as you didn't know what was coming ahead.

Took me some time to realize there is a limit to a number of lifes you can carry. I wish the character would not pick up coins if they are maxxed out, makes some parts impossible to pass without dying.

@datagreed: the game is 100% completable (and several players already did). But you need to properly alternate between picking up coins and picking up smoke balls.

Very good puzzle game and nice simple art style. It would be nice to have some feedback, to show that the lives are maxed at 3 because it took me a while to get started ;)

Nice interpretation of the theme :)

Excellent... really liked the level design. I too thought I'd found a bug at first on the second iteration of the elevator level, but soon realised there was more to it. Rather difficult, that last level!

I enjoyed the puzzling nature, trying to pick the right path and make it through. Theme was straight to the point but I liked the way it added to the puzzle.
