Jonathan Meyers is a sophomore high schooler dealing with his vaping addiction. Can you help him break free of his problems, or will you lead him to an untimely death?

The Fumes is a short visual novel experience made for some random project in 2025.

I decided to create a visual novel instead of just another poster so the audience could feel engaged and invested in the cause, instead of merely glancing at a page.
This short story is designed to be a cautious tale that gives a look into the effects of vaping, carefully crafted to resonate with you through the plot and storyline.

At the end of the day, YOU make the choice to vape.



Estimated completion date: mid-June 2025.

Endings done!

Will be fleshed out further.

Edit, 1 year later: Sorry for the bad quality! This is not a great visual novel nor game, with lots of bugs, but I don't think I can fix it because it would break it even more since it was developed on two different operating systems on a removable hard drive... not a great combination for consistency! Maybe I'll come back to this one day, but for now, enjoy!

DISCLAIMER:  This game uses AI ART due to my inability to mass create adequate backgrounds with digital software (I'm too poor and unskilled for a tablet and Apple pencil).  If you have a problem with that, please find another game. I do not condone people that use AI art to harm artists and steal their work to feed it into machines. I use AI as a way to see my written vision come alive, not to put down artists.
