How does your game fit the theme?
In this game you play as an exterminator, who sprays wasps using smoke rings, which are loop shaped. The smoke rings expand as they go up. The bigger they are, the more wasps they can take out, and the more wasps one of them takes out, the more score you will get from each wasp.

nice game - took a while to get used to stopping to shoot.  And pretty tough to complete.  But fun.

Developer

Yay! Tysm! I’m glad it is fun for you!😄

Nice NES vibes, especially with the demo scene.
I'm not sure how the smoke ring works, though. It's a random delay, or charge attack?

Thank you!

You can’t shoot while you’re moving. I didn’t make this clear enough and that’s on me. I wrote about this on a reply to one of the previous comments.

Nice pixelart and I really enjoy gameplay too, very easy so get into. For fast sfx's I recommend jsfxr.

very nice! good job :) 
for me the spray didn't work from time to time and I would prefer to start slightly slower, so even more casual players can go trough some levels.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I appreciate the honest criticism!

I guess I didn’t make it obvious enough, but you can’t blow smoke while you’re moving, but you can hold space to start blowing smoke as soon as you stop moving. I should have just spelled it out somewhere. Maybe I should have added “while standing” under “Hold to smoke” on the title screen.

I also get what you’re saying with making the game slower. Adding an option for that could have definitely helped casual players.
