PIC10F322 Cascaded Timer – when input on PORT.A2 goes low – PORT.A0 will go high, for 1 second, then LOW, Then PORT.A1 will go high, for one second, then LOW. The on time can be changed by adjusting the PulseOut_Time.

Of course you can move the input to PORT.A3 and get one more output on PORTA.2 and make it three levels. And remove the LEDs and drive something else.
