Great art style (very concept arty but it fits together nice). Also the humor is great, I wish there were even more dialogues

I love the idea! Has a death and taxes feel to it. I'm not exactly sure if I was using the cigarette mechanic right, but it was still enjoyable

Fun Dialogue, and the added concept of having to smoke is very interesting, i didn't really get where the 10 seceonds Theme came into play. But the Graphics are really great.

This is amazing! :D Quite tricky to manage the stress though :o The art style is really unique, and I love how much character you were able to convey on so little text for each of the hell-queuers! Well done ^_^

Lovely game. Visual novel with a time insensitive is definitely something new! Love the humor and all of the character interactions. Beelziba is the most relatable though, despite being a demon :smile:

Really cool spin on the visual novel concept. Really like the idea of managing the stress level. I found I didn't "lose" when I got to max stress levels but defo something I would play a flesh out version of.

Cool entry, I wish the stress levels were more difficult to manage - it was super easy to keep it low.

I might have misunderstood and just smoked the whole pack when I started, second attempt it was a still bit unclear what stress did.
The art is brilliant, really suits the style and the theme.

I want to add that the art looks cool

I liked this a lot. The art style is great, the writing needs some work, but it still managed to be funny, and I like the idea of managing hell's newbies. Good work.

The art is interesting, the audio makes me feel like I really am the one managing all those people coming to hell.
So many karens there xD

Overall, great game

Fantastic simple game. The premise is incredibly fun, the mechanics are easy to grasp and the dialogue is really funny. I think the theme wasn't implemented perfectly, sometimes it felt unfair to get more rage from just taking slightly too long to respond. In general, this could totally be expanded into a full game though.

I just want to here the sound of the devil smoking again and again . Otherwise cool game , love the color and the audio . Did not understand the whole point with stress and cigarette but I guesse it is just time based . Still cool game.
