I'm very glad that you enjoyed the game, thank you for playing and recording it!!
Actually, on the original plans for the game, it would have had three different endings: "A", Michael gets help and continues his life; "B", Michael doesn't get help, but continues alive and "C", Michael kills himself. I decided to go on just with the last one because it felt to be the most consistent with the rest of the story. And about the transitions, I'm sorry for that, but I made it slow to give the player some distress (at least that was my intention).
