Hello! Sorry for the super late reply on this. I fully agree on the dead end after dead end from a writing perspective too haha (and apologize as the game dev for the frustration). It burnt me out even before my 24 hours were up. I have definitely learned my lesson ... maybe some day I will go back and tie those dead ends together, create new stories, and provide an experience that's a bit less frustrating!
Thank you for taking the time to play and comment!
