A strange phenomenon...

While working on what was supposed to be nothing more than a simple GUI update, I noticed someone something... strange had manifested in the games code. No matter what I did, no matter how many rollbacks I tried, tweaks I attempted, lines I deleted, it always came back. It's like it ingrained itself into the program with no way of pulling it out, making itself at home in a game it was never intended to be in.

I can't find anything online about this, no matter how hard I try. I've dug and dug and dug into forums from ages ago and still, no dice. And frankly, I'm a little tired of screwing with it. I've uploaded the current build to the main page of the game and attached it down below - you think you guys could give it a go for me and see what's up? Do a little playtesting, as it were.

Surely we can figure out this little syntax error together.. right guys?

Here's some hints from our own testing to start you off:

1. Code changes are only accessible after completing both routes. The game will give you a message after the route end screen when you've met requirements.
2. Code deviation starts at the first choice.
3. Save files carry over, but progress towards the new code may not - if you've played before you may need to complete routes again in order to see it.
4. Title screen seems to track progress - keep an eye on it.
5. Whatever's in here doesn't seem to like us very much.

More research is necessary. Godspeed, and good luck.

WARNING. THIS UPDATE CONTAINS:

• Flashing/glitchy imagery
• Unreality
• Descriptions of gore

If these things bother you, tread lightly. The game itself will contain a warning letting you know you're about to go down the path containing this content. It was the least I could do for now to keep it at bay, but more may be done in the future to hold it off.
