thank you sm for this comment ! i also wish we were able to add more / make the game longer, but unfortunately we ran out of time, such is the nature of game jams as im sure you know ^_^'
as for the endings, i wanted to leave it purposely ambiguous, i dont rly see either one as the ultimate "good" or "bad" ending. i think its up to the player and their own moral compass / personal interpretation. i personally also prefer the circus ending, but i know my teammates preferred the other one haha
