I've just uploaded a new version, fixes implemented and all!
After going over your description, I'll just say that you were absolutely on the right track for a good ending, just follow the instructions from the opening prompt TO THE LETTER.
Ok, awesome! I followed the instructions exactly without even venturing into the Living Room, and discovered one of the endings. Huzzah! Who'd a thunk the authorities would have our best interest in mind?
Heads up though: Sadly, looking up in that scene will still trigger the "looking at the ceiling, " bug where nothing advances.
I wouldn't mind a hint about the other ending though...because I get locked into a basement stand-off and...I don't move, as instructed. But nothing happens.
I smoke poor Jeremy right in front of them like some madman lol, then hear scraping above me and then wait...but nothing advances there either.
Any of those 6 options given prove deadly. So I'm decidedly stumped. :P
Also many thanks for being so responsive!
Oh geez, thanks for letting me know, I'll check into those bugs as well. It can be a bit difficult to account for all the things that might happen, sorry about that.
As for the other good ending;
Don't obey orders.
It's dangerous to go alone so take weapons, and maybe don't go alone?
Maybe check the fridge a bit? If you have to venture outside it's best not to do so on an empty stomach.
I totally understand! Actually I made a very similar project myself. :D
I don't want it to sound like I'm advertising or anything lol but here's the link if you wanna try it out!

Hehe maybe that's where I'm confused:
I've got a pistol and knife. Jeremy's my pal. Check the fridge.
It says "empty except a few condiments." and another time it says "You REALLY need groceries."
Jeremy never follows into the foyer btw, but goes with me everywhere else.
If I go outside then: Immediately shot dead.
If I lock the door and hit the basement with my best pal Jeremy: "Don't move!"
No one tells me us what to do! I run. Shot dead. lol
Alright, I made sure I collected everything, checked the fridge a ton, teamed up with Jeremy and...to my surprise I wasn't killed instantly this time. Dunno what my deal was before. XD
Nice twist. I wonder if our new friend knows about my ceiling problem. o.O Thanks again for walking me through it, and I'm glad I finally got to clear your game. So many questions! But I guess that's horror for you. Would totally play if you decide to expand this "universe" some time. :)
And thanks! Can't wait to hear what you think! It's been way too long since I've made anything since.
Your project was inspiring and I can tell you enjoyed making it. Time to leave a review. :)
