i loved the game. i got ending 3. i neeeed to see the other endings <3
heyo!
There's 3 endings. Ending 1: Unknowing, Ending 2: Defective, and Ending 3: Understanding. Ending 2 imo is a little lacking, but I'm actually planning on updating it pretty heavily in the next few weeks if I've got some time! Ending 3 is the best ending imo.
Thanks so much for playing, glad you liked it!
