This bug omg ..... I made a breakthrough with a possible solve for this load/save bug (it's the source of this and the fanny shop bugs) and will do my hardest to fix it tonight! If I can't do that I'll upload a build where you can access the ending via a cheat code instead for the time being. Thank you for letting me know you're still getting this bug!

I've just uploaded a build just for you! It's the "Peyton Ending Shortcut" build (it's a PC build but let me know if you need Mac or Linux!). What you'll want to do is click the "Peyton Ending" button on the main menu and click on the bed in Phebe's room! This will cut straight to Peyton's ending (starting with the underground tunnels). The game should also drop a Flower into your key inventory for you to use in the final scene!
Thank you for letting me know that this glitch was still in the game! I got a nice look at what was going on under the hood and I feel like I've got a lot better idea of what areas to focus on in my own programming journey. Thank you again! :D
Update: It works! I got to see Payton's ending and I really love it! Thank you for making this game (I really enjoyed reading your Author's Footnote). I took the opportunity to support you (it's not much) and I can't wait for your next project(s) and meanwhile I'm going to check your previous game :)
Sorry for the late reply! Thank you so much for your reactivity! I'm on Mac but I'm going to see if I can launch the PC build with Wine Crossover first before asking you for a Mac build :)
