Smokey Mike
A narrative point-and-click adventure set in the Buenos Aires stand-up comedy scene. Improvise, survive awkward gigs and build the five minutes of material that could change your life.
Smokey Mike is a classic point-and-click adventure game set in the underground comedy circuit of Buenos Aires. Players navigate Paco through a single chaotic night, talking to shady characters, solving increasingly absurd puzzles, and desperately trying to turn their career around before it all falls apart.
Built in the LucasArts tradition — no dead ends, no pixel hunting, and a protagonist who comments on everything — Smokey Mike combines handcrafted pixel art environments with a script written by an actual stand-up comedian with over 15 years on stage.

About the Developer
Nacho Arana is a stand-up comedian with over 15 years of experience on the Buenos Aires comedy circuit. Smokey Mike is his first video game.
The idea was simple: make the adventure game he always wanted to play, set in the city he knows best, with jokes that actually land. What started as a side project became a full solo dev studio — Medium Energy — built around the belief that funny games need real writers, and stand-up scene has interesting stories to tell.
Smokey Mike is developed using Adventure Game Studio, the same engine behind classics like Primordia and Resonance.
