Punchline!! is a short and free slice-of-life comedic visual novel that places you into the daily lives of a poverty-stricken grifter who's convinced that we're surrounded by outlandish conspiracies and a stoic, anti-social stick-in-the-mud who has a penchant for booze and is disillusioned and unsatisfied with her work life as you experience their various misadventures in the hustle and bustle of Noo Yawk City!!
Punchline!! differs from your typical visual novel by adopting a scenario-based structure with the player going through mostly self contained episodes with their own stories, one-by-one in a linear fashion. This is akin to a typical TV sitcom in the sense that each episode focuses on a certain situation or scenario that has a beginning, middle and end as opposed to a larger, overarching narrative found in serialized television.

Known issues: If you're alt-tabbed for an extended period of time and resume, the game may slow up. I'm looking to get this fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.
Punchline!! was developed entirely by me over the period of a year. The game itself is only an hour long but if you enjoyed it and maybe even chuckled here and there, please let me know :)
This is my first visual novel and well first creative endevaour really, but I'd love to continue to do so more. Your feedback is valuable so if you're willing to take the time out of your day to drop some I'd be super appreciative. Thank you :)
