Yep, I was working on the ending when the time was over, so I couldn't solve this quirk. It's a shame because what happens at the end is not very clear, but since it's not a crash I don't think it's fair to publish a fix for the compo"},{"author_name":"metadept","author_uid":"15489","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 3:56pm","epoch":1355845860,"text":"Surprisingly fun!

That was a fun experience. But pressing 5 to play again did not result in anything.\r\rBy the way, your link says Windows, but I hacked the system and was able to play it on my MacBook on OSX ;) ... better change it so people know they can play it on another system.\r\rAwesome game, had a lot of fun.
