About Send In The Clown
Send In The Clown is a short comedy RPG, about an hour long. You play Pockets, the least appreciated clown in history, hired to save Miranda's disastrous 12th birthday party from her brother Tad.
Every guest needs something. You win them over with minigames, puzzles and dialogue choices, and they join your party. There's a rhythm game to teach a single dad to dance, quick-time events to give a tired mum a break, and a Space Invaders-style shooter. It all builds up to a turn-based battle against Tad, where the guests you helped bring their own special moves.
