Hello! As the title suggests, not all planned story moment, beats, and arcs, made it into the final product. In fact, even the final product might not have made it into the final product XD.

There may still be a few bugs here and there, let me know if you find any, and I'll take a look at getting some form of patch out after I've slept like the dead for a bit.

Instructions:
- Game is entirely played using only your mouse.
- Hover over items to determine if they can be interacted with (they will glow Yellow/Gold to indicate this).
- Enjoy the story as it unfolds!

There are 7 endings of the planned 13 endings in the game, see if you can find them :).

Cut Content (due to me being a massive Baka and not planning realistically):
- Entire Dungeon with multiple puzzle rooms.
- Entire Jungle with multiple encounters (for the more battle hardened shadow puppet).
- Entire stealth run of the final segment.
- 6 Endings, including one involving space travel with funky fresh alien friends.

Overall there is about an hour of dialogue I recorded that did not make it into the final game. Sad that I spent all that time recording, but what can you do - I'll know to make a small game next next time I guess... heh...

Let me know if you have any queries, or troubles.

Thanks!

Haha I loved the title, very honest and funny :D Aw, real shame about the dialogue that didn't make it in! What was there was awesome, you have a fantastic voice. My fiance is a writer and was very impressed.
