Release 4 (final?) of Repeat the Ending now live
I am excited to have completed (I hope) the final update of this weird game. It is primarily a feature release. Here's what's new on that front:
I've heavily revised the hints for earning every point, providing more incremental information and context clues. This comes as a response to player feedback. Please enjoy it!
The second feature is something I'm quite passionate about. I call it "story mode." A few people have worked or are working on their own approaches to guided playthroughs of parser games. I've thought of this primarily as an accessibility feature, though I think people who simply don't enjoy parser games may like it, too. It leads the player through the game in an automated way. The player can pause at any time to experiment or explore. The player can also quit the mode altogether, which may make it a handy tutorial experience for some.
Have a look for yourself! Just select option 2 when the game begins.
As always, if you find a bug, I will add you to the testing credits.
If you (or someone you know) have never played Repeat the Ending, this is the best time yet to give it a try. Thanks everyone for supporting this project!
