I absolutely loved playing this. I didn't actually make the final deductive leap into what was *actually* going on, but I loved uncovering all the pieces of the story using deductive logic (and the odd bit of trial and error). It was so fun to explore the mystery in little parts, and felt like a proper detective linking these insane characters and their stories together. I made a Google Sheets to track everyone and it was very satisfying.
In the end, I came to the comments here to read about other people's theories about the ending. It didn't satisfactorily resolve for me in the way I had quite wished it would - despite having unlocked 97%, I hadn't understood the specifics on *why* the events were happening as they were.
Thank you for making such a cool thing, and I wish for many more cool things like this in the future.
