The sudden shift from getting food to a major life decision was supposed to be jarring, since all of the endings would be something sudden that you would not see coming."},{"author_name":"HuntTheWumpus","author_uid":"30702","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 11:33am","epoch":1387279680,"text":"Oh, there is more level than just the first screen.

I've been informed of the issue and unfortunately it makes the game unwinnable. I apologize for this; the issue exists because I completed the Ludum Dare on a rather top of the line PC; without consideration of deployment to slower machines. The Standalone edition does seem to have reduced issue compared to the web version; however, so if experiencing issues online try the download.","title":"Toy Soldiers"}
