Nice game. I encountered 2 bugs: one was when I died in the cave and the counter for the pickaxe didn't reset (image below. And the second was when I unlocked the door but I was unable to go back after the comarade told me to go back and I don't know why, but the screen got dark (but you could kept hearing the beating, walking so I walked bindly and got the non existing ending. :)
Good game, has a little bug when replaying it and in my opinion could've maybe used a checkpoint, but over all pretty good!
GOOD

The game is interesting and has good settings. The plot also looks promising. Perhaps some visual polishing and the game is even better. ALL ENDINGS HERE:
