(Spoiler details warning )

I've done all three possibilites with the matches but I don't understand the ending? The writing was good, but the mystery isn't fleshed out well enough in the ending imo, or did  I miss an important plot point?

Hi WarNovaDragoon - I think your criticism(s) are well founded.

When we wrote the story, we decided on an ending that happens 'beyond the screen', i.e. we felt that there was enough information for a reader to be pretty confident that they knew what happened, without explicitly saying it.
(But, that sort of ending does often lead to the feeling you are talking about - it doesn't feel fully fleshed out.)

As for Mike, you are absolutely correct. He was intended to be the black sheep of the group.

And, as for the trope-y writing, you are correct, it does lean that way. I am not a horror writer, so the trope-traps are easy for me to fall into. I think If I had had more time, I could've made everything feel  tighter and imparted a better feeling of verisimilitude. 

I really appreciate your thoughts, and thank you for playing.

Thanks for the kind response, but all in all, great work on this visual novel, it was intriguing, would love to see more of it if you guys have the time for future updates.
