Chasing your dreams is never an easy thing to do.

Stand Up is an immersive management simulator where everything is diegetic.

Taking place entirely at the main character’s desk, you guide them as they embark on their journey to becoming a beloved stand-up comedian. However, balancing the little free time you have to chase your dreams, while also managing everyday responsibilities, is not easy.

With limited windows of time and novel in-world minigames, the player must refine jokes, book venues, and perform the gig. Through pressure-inducing negative UX the player will have to navigate personal relationships, fatigue, and inspiration. All of which can have both a positive or negative impact on the quality of their work. After all, nobody said creating your dreams was easy…and the clock’s always ticking.
