Sorry for the late reply! And a big thank you for your interest in my game! Let’s see if I can help you out.

You are 100% on the right track! The sliding door is a two-part puzzle: one part is the flesh which you already burned off and the other is that the portal symbols around the door are smudged and don’t work anymore. Because you read the diary, Theresa should know which symbols are supposed to go around the door, so it’s just a matter of rewriting the symbols to make sure the portal works.

Hope that helps! And if it doesn't, feel free to reply again!

Ah. I got it now, I figured that's what I had to do but I couldn't figure out the command to do it.

Another question: I'm now trying to get all the endings. How many are there? I've gotten two so far.

Glad to hear you worked it out!

There are three endings total. All three are dependent on 1) If you have a protection charm and 2) if you made one, what you finished it with.

I FINALLY GOT ALL THE ENDINGS!!! I feel so accomplished. I hope you make more games like this! I definitely want to try my hand at making something like this as well, you've totally inspired me! If I wasn't in college and double majoring (computer science and classical studies) I would be doing it right now lol. I also loved how much detail you worked in when I typed things like "cry" and "f*ck" lmao. absolutely amazing job. You should be so proud of what you've done here

AHHHH!! You did it!! Congratulations!!

And thanks for all your sweet compliments! Creating this game was honestly such a gamble because when I started university, I took one (1) cs class my freshman year of university and then dropped it because I thought, "You know, I think my brain just isn't equipped for this" haha. It's all thanks to Adventuron Classroom that I was even able to start. If you want an easy way to start making a text adventure, this is a fantastic option!

And I totally understand how hard it is to have a game-developing personal project while in school — I was on winter break in the middle of the game jam's original one-month timeframe and honestly that's the only reason I was able to get so much done because as soon as the next semester hit . . . hoo-boy. (Also, I had a roommate once who majored in classical studies—it's so cool!)

I say whenever you get the time to make a text adventure, go for it!! And then when you make it, link me to it so I can play it!!
