Laugh Track is a unique visual novel that casts you as the lead writer for "Juno's World," a seemingly normal sitcom about high school life. However, beneath the wacky shenanigans lies a darker reality. You are employed by a mysterious "Management" entity, and your job is to guide four teenagers—Juno, Cat, Daniel, and Remy—through their daily trials.
The gameplay revolves around balancing audience entertainment with the mental state of your characters. Using the "Ratings" system, you must make decisions that keep the characters entertainingly unhappy without breaking them completely. If they become too relaxed, they might fight back against your control; if they become too miserable, the show collapses. You must choose scripts, build relationships, and decide the order of the eight episodes, all while trying to avoid being "cancelled" in more ways than one. Will you comply with Management, or find a way to break free?
