Punchline!! is a slice-of-life comedy visual novel. Enter the not-so-sane daily life of an eccentric, good-for-nothing bum with an unhealthy interest in peculiar conspiracies and a snarky, cynical part-time drunk as they navigate the weird and wacky city of Noo Yawk.

✔️ Tested on Steam Deck, working fine (10/12/2022). Only touchscreen works for everything. I was curious about the other game developed by 'idk?' so I decided to go through it fast. It looks less polished than 20b but has charismatic characters and depicts some very relatable moments and ideas. Worth giving it a try, it also free.
Really enjoyed this game, there's an excellent balance between humor and more serious stuff (especially with Wondo. I adore Wondo). The art style is super cool, and all the art assets are really cohesive with each other as well as with the music. Definitely hoping to see more set in this world from this dev, as the end bit suggested there might be.
Ok, at first I wasn't sure about this game. It had serious lag. You should maybe read the discussion section more? Version 1.1 fixed the lag and I'm really glad it did. The game was great, the story's were heartfelt, and I would love to see more of the 4 panel easy going life. I feel like there should be another achivo called cows . . . . . You know what that would be for, I'm sure. Looking forward to a 2nd game, I would like to see more of these dudes. More story for the head chick, some jokes about giving head, combining headinajar with witchhat?

Punchline!! is an amazing visual novel all about the life of a ♥♥♥♥ up in New York. As you follow the characters you automatically get invested into there lives and who they are, and by the end, the game leaves you with allot of thoughts buzzing thru you head. If you decide to play this game then this will be the shortest 2 hours of you life, because before you know it, the game will be over and you will have a tear in your eye. 10/10, would recommend.

The director's cut was longer than the main storyline, but it's alright.
I'm Italian so I'm not very familiar with American slang but I was able to understand the dialogues almost without problems. I really like this game, its soundtrack and its visual style (reminds me a bit of 2064 Read Only Memory) but the two things I liked the most are episode 8 (there are 9 small episodes in total) and the developer's message (a guy not much older than me) at the end of the game where he talks about himself, his life, his ideas, this game and his future games. I'm just sad that few people have played this game, it's really great and it deserves more attention in my opinion.
Игра 'Punchline!!' - это казуальная головоломка, которая идеально подходит для коротких перерывов. Простая, но вызывающая привыкание механика "выдергивания булавок" на первый взгляд может показаться легкой, но уровни быстро становятся сложнее и требуют стратегического мышления. Приятный визуальный стиль и забавные звуковые эффекты добавляют очарования, хоть и могут быстро наскучить. Игра имеет приличный объем контента, чтобы занять вас на некоторое время, хотя повторение базовой механики может утомить некоторых игроков. В целом, это неплохой вариант, чтобы скоротать время, но не стоит ожидать чего-то новаторского или глубокого. Оценка - твердая четверка из пяти за простоту, доступность и приятную казуальность.
