About the Game

Welcome to your first day on the job, new guy. Here at Dairy Clown, we strive ourselves on quick, efficient service -- that's why our ice cream moves across a conveyor belt! Get ready to serve dish after dish, all while wearing a smile on your face (or a frown, it doesn't matter as long as it's painted on)!

Take control of the New Guy during his first few days at the local clown-owned ice-cream parlor, Dairy Clown. Create frozen concoctions for your customers by applying toppings as the ice-cream goes whizzing past on a conveyor belt -- but watch out for Clown Mode, which will cause everything to shift around and speed up!

This game uses photographs taken with a Game Boy Camera for character portraits and some key graphics, and was built in the span of 2 weeks for the Big Mode Game Jam. This new version contains numerous bugfixes and a new ending variation if you receive a perfect score across all 3 days of the story.

Pierrot à la Mode features a runtime of approximately 15-20 minutes, three different endings, and will give you a small glimpse of what life was like in Divinity City before the Upgrade Virus hit. Enjoy a bite-sized look at Elyris and its strange inhabitants in this precursor to Gas Station Story!
