Honked! a clown noir
Honked! is a narrative-adventure game about a mysterious world of Clowns where not all is as it seems.
You'll use gumption and a balloon pump to explore and unravel the mystery of Clownside!
Crimp Games is a group of friends in Austin that get together a few times a year to work together on games and try to get out of our comfort zone. This was our 4th collaboration (following Gob N' Go, Card Cowboy, and Crash Land Crystal) and our goal going into the weekend was to make a game that mixed 'clowns' and 'noir'. We'd love if folks would wishlist the game on Steam!
