Version 7 of 8

Open Mic Night

Kill or bomb

Setting · The Laugh Pit — basement comedy club, Thursday October 2026 Scale · Short Tone · Pulpy, comedic, observational. Cringe humor without cruelty.

You're onstage with a mic. Read the room, pick your bits, handle hecklers, survive tech disasters. A single night of stand-up as a narrative sandbox — 15 scenes of moment-to-moment agency over branching arc.

Built small on purpose — proving the system could carry a short game without a sweeping story.

A short, lean demo: 15 scenes, 70 voice lines, about six minutes of audio. Built small on purpose.

The Tone

Pulpy, comedic, observational. Cringe humor without cruelty.

What was new in this version

  1. Proved a complete game could fit in one short act — 15 scenes, six minutes of voice.
  2. A game without a grand journey — just one night, scene by scene, with you driving every moment.
  3. Used to stress-test the new choice rules — every scene packs more decisions than usual.
