Hi Dark,

Although I haven't completed the game yet, I have really enjoyed playing it
and once completed will definitely go online and  rate the game.  Thanks for
the info about the alternate ending, I wouldn't have thought of trying that
otherwise but look forward to giving that a go. Did you ever work out if
stoking the fire in the main room played any part in the game? I've tried
keeping it stoked and leaving it to die but it doesn't seem to change
anything either way

Subject: [Audyssey] A dark room, alternative ending and developer thoughts

I sent a mail to the developer of A dark room, to firstly say I liked the
game and particularly the access, and to ask about possible expantions or
future plans. 

He (I believe the name Amir is a  man's name), said that he didn't plan to
expand the game since he felt the current length was as he wanted. however
he is thinking of more games, possibly even a    prequal, though he'd
appreciate  people to give the game good reviews and publicity. 

One thing he did tell me though which I am trying now, is that the game has
an alternative ending, which is tantamount to a different play mode.  to get
it, you need to complete the game without building a singlehut!  that's
right, no slaves at all! this obviously means you need to explore and battle
for all your  materials, which changes gameplay around. 

The only annoying part is that to unlock the first exploration stage you
actually need to build traps, which is a rather long process just by
gathering 20 wood a pop, (nobody said this was an easy mode).

I'm trying it now, just because I did rather  enjoy this game, and I can see
the  alternate ending being quite a challenge to get since it needs far more
exploring. 

The developer did state he's looking for 5 star reviews, so if people like
the game perhaps they can contribute, to encourage the developer to do more
in the same style, or perhaps even something more ambicious next time, (last
I checked you needed facebook to write a review so annoyingly I couldn't,
but when I am back at my flat with my bluetooth keyboard I'll try again). 

Beware the grue! 

Dark.
