We're so sorry to hear that happened to you! No, that is definitely not intentional (even if it is funny lol). Have you tried booting the game fresh and using Episode Select to jump back to that scene and trying again? That often resolves a lot of issues. Otherwise, we'll need to investigate, in which case I need to know:
1) What version you're playing (Windows or Browser, and if the latter, which one)
2) Whether you're playing the latest version 1.04.3 (visible in the top-left corner of the first screen)
3) What preloading option you used (Chapter or Episode) and how many continuous episodes you played when the crash happened (approximations are fine)
That would help me narrow the potential issue. We want you to get the happy ending you deserve!
