Salamander County Public Television is a Minigame Game developed and published by Tinzone Games, and released for PC on July 29, 2022. The player takes on the role of SCPTV's newest employee, but on the first day of the job, everyone but their boss and a coworker has mysteriously vanished. The Show Must Go On, however, and it's your job to create various wacky television segments (that nobody is watching) while your coworker and, after a few days, another new employee from out-of-town are busy trying to find where everyone went.Please note that, despite this game having an acronym of "SCP TV", there is no connection to the SCP Foundation...we think. | |

Vacuum Mouth | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_120dcb0d | comment |
Vacuum Mouth: Not only does the final minigame have Geoffrey get a literal vacuum implanted in his mouth, but it also shows that Rich has the lung strength to try and inhale the entirety of Salamander County, spinning the remote control in the process. | |

Brainwashed and Crazy: On the final day, Geoffrey is mind-controlled by the burger he ate and turned into a human vacuum in order to capture the mouse. | |

Cartoonish Supervillainy | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_181cb26c | comment |
Cartoonish Supervillainy: Rich Richardson's greedy tendencies prevent anything from getting done in the early half of the story. He only relents when Ember manages to convince him about long-term profit gain. He reaches "supervillain" territory when he shows up at the final minigame to sabotage the deal with the rambicules so his company can take over Salamander County, even if it means keeping a bunch of people vacuumed up by an alien species. The entire plot was kicked off by Rambicule Corporation realizing that SCPTV pirated their software. Their response was to use their giant vacuum to abduct everyone in the county so they could be held for ransom, all for a measly $10. | |

Humanoid Aliens | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_1e669b8e | comment |
Humanoid Aliens: Near the story's climax, it turns out that Rambicule Corp. is actually run by aliens from the planet Rambicule, who look exactly like humans but can distort their body to various lengths...with the exception of their legs, which are stuck at 3 feet. | |

Only Sane Man | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Ember, the other new employee at SCPTV, is essentially The Everyman who treats her use of the chat more casually than more corporate characters like Geoffrey and Rich Richardson, and comments on the absurdity of the story as it goes on. | |

Crazy Workplace | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_4c0b402a | comment |
Crazy Workplace: A Downplayed example, at first. The county's public access cable consists of a manager, the player and a new hire, all communicating over a chatting app to decide what each broadcast should be about. Things escalate when a mouse suddenly decides to join the server and the Rambicule Corporation gets more involved. | |

| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_5a3b8032 | comment |
The Unreveal: A small case. Ember wonders why they're both meant to be a public television channel for their county but owned by a private corporation. Geoffrey starts to explain, but interrupts himself with a short-lived idea. | |

Serious Business | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_6b35bdff | comment |
Serious Business: Everyone treats the $10 that the Rambicule Ratings subscription fee requests as if it were a MacGuffin. Rich Richardson adamantly refuses to give the money over due to his sheer greed as a CEO. Geoffrey could easily afford it, as he wires some cash to Ember to help her pay for her lunch at one point, but he claims that only ""authorized"" employees can make more official purchases (and that Rich is the only one). Susan and the Rambicule Corporation reveal they know why Salamander County's population vanished. They demand SCPTV finally pay for a license to use their software, and only then will they explain what happened. This is in spite of them being a "multi-trillion dollar company", but Susan says its because they're a multi-trillion dollar company that they want every dollar owed to them. It's eventually revealed that they were the ones behind the disappearance all along. The $10 then becomes the point of negotiation for ransom, promising they'll return the population after their license is paid. Susan even makes it a point to specifically get the mouse and the $10 in the final microgame. | |

Excuse Plot | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_70d8269d | comment |
Excuse Plot: It's a microgame collection with the Public Access Television setting being used to make flimsy explanations for their backgrounds. The overarching plot itself follows a typical story structure of climax and resolution, but little of it is grounded in reality. It's all for the sake of comedy and having fun. | |

Comically Small Demand | |
| Salamander County Public Television (Video Game) / int_7f6885c4 | comment |
Comically Small Demand: One of the main leads in uncovering how and why everyone disappeared is footage from a device provided by Rambicule Corp., but its representative, Susan, states that Rich had pirated their software and they refuse to help find the townsfolk unless they're paid their $10 (which Rich refuses). She's even willing to give Geoffrey a free hamburger if he can get them the money. It eventually turns out she's responsible for the disappearance as part of a gambit to capture the mouse with abnormally long legs, and the $10 is just a distraction. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Rich Richardson, the CEO of Calabash Telecom and the company that owns the station for SCPTV. He is self-admittedly only concerned about short-term gains and isn't willing to spend a cent on locating the missing townsfolk even if it means they can just pay him later. On the final day, he even decides he can make more money renting the town out to tourists than rescuing the townsfolk, and tries to stop Ember from calling the intergalactic police and rescuing them. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: Station Manager Geoffrey. He might be a bit bumbling and overly formal when talking to you and Ember, and has a few odd quirks about food here and there, but he genuinely has the interests of his employees in mind. He was even willing to argue with Rich Richardson to make sure Ember's salary was more than minimum wage. | |

Chekhov's Gunman: The fourth minigame is filming a segment about a mouse with oddly long legs. It slowly becomes more significant to the story as the month goes on. A few days after its appearance, Ember points out that it somehow joined SCPTV's private chat server before it goes offline, much to Geoffrey's bewilderment (at its possible plot importance). During Food Week, Ember finds a package containing a Rambicule Corp vacuum hose, with a note that only says 'Foreshadowing'. Geoffrey assumes it's from the mouse due to the bite marks Ember described as covering the box. By the end of the month, it not only learns to communicate and informs SCPTV about Rambicule Corp's dark secrets, but capturing it is Rambicule Corp's main goal. | |
