Apologies for not responding to this sooner, I dismissed the email then forgot about it. I appreciate you pointing out some of the inconsistencies with the arrows. Some of these can probably be fixed, but it is a huge pain in the neck to format things in twine from their sluggish editor, so I gave up on keeping them perfectly standardized somewhat early on. If or when I make a second version, I will probably be using tweego, which lets you edit in whatever text program you like, and I'll try to see if I can make these more standardized.
Not sure if I understand what you mean by a whole different version. If you're making another one with similar content, even if it uses a lot of the same structure, I don't mind, but if it's just going to be an enhanced version with extra endings and more polish, I'm not sure if I'm okay with that at this point in time.
Possibly. I definitely want to and I've done a bit of work, but it's been incredibly hard to buckle down and get anything done with quarantine lately. I wish I could give a more definite answer.
Sorry for the late reply. The weight system is a check on every page in a header passage, which shows an interstitial passage if it detects that you're a certain size. Then there's another passage linked in the footer that just shows you a different passage depending on what your weight value is. If you download Twine and open the project, you can see all these for yourself.
This is correct. Spoilers, obviously, but https://pastebin.com/viYCgj7q has a full list of all endings and how to get them (please let me know if any are not working).
I don't have any problem with people picking apart the game and learning or even modifying it for themselves, just don't want anyone posting it without permission/notification is all. I encourage you to tinker with it, as these games can be fun to make.
I appreciate the offer, but I'm not looking for contributions at the moment. Been a bit busy with art and work and not going insane during quarantine.
Edit: I realize you're talking to someone else (the email I got just said "there's a response", but in any case I ask you please do not just add to and repost my game (if that's what you were thinking).
The file is actually just the html itself. You should be able to open it directly in twine, there's no special compilation process. Try downloading the page itself, if that doesn't work I can find a copy for you tomorrow.
