Nesta aventura RPG sem combates, o stand-up comedy é o motor principal: você encarna Clam Man em uma missão para desvendar um segredo no porão do Snacky Bay Prime Mayonnaise. Sete atributos como Aquadynamics, Improv, Detection, Assertion, Deadpan, Luck e Self-Awareness definem seu trajeto por diálogos ramificados e testes de habilidade fixos. As quests fornecem material cômico com múltiplos finais dependendo das suas escolhas, garantindo alta rejogabilidade neste indie narrativo.
Apresente rotinas de stand-up no palco, com rolagens de dados RPG testando seus atributos contra piadas coletadas - acerte para opções de punchline ou curta as reviravoltas constrangedoras do fracasso. Todo resultado avança a história sem bloqueios, inclusive um raro momento de tapa na cara. Fãs de aventuras casuais cheias de diálogos e escolhas vão se perder em caminhos infinitos de conversas absurdas e apresentações hilárias.

CLAM MAN 2: HEADLINER
is an upcoming stand-up comedy RPG; a combatless, narrative adventure that takes you on an unlikely quest in a very unlikely world. Play as the titular Clam Man and uncover a secret lurking in the basement of Snacky Bay Prime Mayonnaise that will change the course of your life! Do quests, get jokes, and do stand-up!
THE GAME JUDGES WHO YOU ARE
Seven different stats dictate your abilities and your path through quests and conversations;
- Aquadynamics - your ability to perform physically!
- Improv - your ability to think on the spot, be strange and absurd, or come up with new takes or ideas!
- Detection - your ability to perceive the world and use logic to understand it!
- Assertion - your ability to tell people off and convince them that you're right!
- Deadpan - your ability to keep your cool and lie!
- Luck - I had to put this in here and now everyone specs all their points into Luck
- Self-Awareness - your ability to empathise with others and yourself (or not)!
TONS OF DIALOGUE
If you're averse to lots of reading, this might get tricky - Clam Man 2 has a LOT of branching dialogue, offering tons of replayability! Dialogues also feature tons of static skill checks that only unlock with the right stats; if a conversation only has a couple of available response options, chances are that other outcomes and absurdities hide behind a different character build!
GATHER MATERIALS
In order to do stand-up, you need jokes! In Clam Man 2, quests are character-based with choices to be made and errands to be run, and finishing a quest rewards you with material you can use in your shows! Every quest has multiple endings, and depending on your choices, the resulting joke loot will change, and it's impossible to see even half of all the jokes in a single playthrough!
GET ON STAGE
Each joke you receive from quests will measure your abilities, with classic RPG dice rolls. High stats and the right joke makes all the difference! Succeeding will give you multiple options of where you want to take the joke, and even failing will allow you to choose your destiny in a spiraling maelstrom of stuttering, awkwardness, and pure bad taste.
Will you land every joke, or will you bomb your way through your shows?NO FIGHTING
Clam Man 2 is a narrative RPG, with zero combat! (Apart from a part where you can slap a guy in the face.) Similarly, failure is always a valid path forward in the game; you won't get locked out of anything, you'll just get a different outcome, different quest, or different story!
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS
Clam Man 2 is being developed by a solo developer who is extremely tired because making this is too much work. You can follow the development on twitter!
