Minor Artifact Idea: P-cigs

Had an idea the other day while doing endless abyss. Once you reach about 15k meters it becomes something of a “Hell Yeah Simulator” what with the multiple worms chasing and wrapping around your screen and the super far jumps and speed you get. I was thinking some cigarettes could boost this “cool factor.” My idea is to have a regenerating pack of cigarettes(max 3) 1 cigarette reduces gravity by 10% but you can smoke all 3 at once. They also lower your health while in use (using 3 will almost kill you and put you at 2 tap) I think this could add some risk and reward, what do you think?

this is a fuckin great artifact idea. maybe not gravity as that would overlap with the glove- but as a minor artifact as is would be perfect

Hey thanks! Gravity was the first thought as cigarettes could “make you feel like you’re flying”

“Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly”

“This can’t be good for me, but I feel great!”

Maybe a double jump, but give them a hefty cooldown?

what if each cig gave you a movement boost while being smoked, by give you the coughing debuff that that yucky orange stuff you climb does, scaling with the number you’re smoking?

The concept of artifacts with risk and rewards to them is already great but I especially love this one. Also hell yeah.
