yeah, i got the "escape" ending. i think it'd be great if there was an additional *real* escape ending, and maybe an ending where you actually take charge of the place after domming the cat, silly as that might be, hahaha
You've got good instincts! Both of those WERE initially planned, but had to be cut to make the deadline. To give you a feeling of how tight it was, the current escape ending was literally the last thing I wrote (48 hours before the deadline), and the game was not fully functional until about 3 hours before the deadline. That time crunch forced some things to go on the chopping block, and a good ending, unfortunately, was one of them.
I *would* be interested in expanding on this in a future patch, though. Taking charge of the facility would be complicated, lore-wise (since Iana is basically just the VP of one division, and the CEO might not take kindly to you zonking his boyfriend and taking over his department), but a true escape ending should very much be doable. Maybe I could tie it to the safe..?
