How the different endings in Chapter 2 work (mild spoilers inside)

Heya! 👋

I hope you had some time (and fun, of course) testing the Early Access of Chapter 2 1.0!

If you made it to the end, you saw an end screen that told you which of the 3 possible endings you unlocked.

Like in any good old school RPG (I'm thinking classic Bioware stuff like Mass Effect 💖, or Baldur's Gate 3) these mechanics are supposed to work under the hood and encourage multiple playthroughs.

In this WIP phase of the project, it's good to have this a bit more transparent though, to see if everything works as expected - and as an added benefit, it provides a good guide what to do if you want to unlock a specific ending 😉.

So I made a little flow chart to illustrate the logic that plays out in the final encounter before leaving the tomb.

If you haven't played up this point yet, this will include spoilers!

I recommend to go in without any prior knowledge first, and then check out this post later.

So, if you're still here then you already saw the end or don't mind spoilers 😇

So here we go.

Please check if things panned out for you in your playthrough like shown in this diagram. If not, something might be broken and I would be very grateful if you could contact me to get it fixed!

Also, don't hesitate to shoot any other questions or feedback my way.

Thanks for your support!
