I'm curious, is there actually a secret ending by redoing the game or something? I couldn't find it!

A secret ending? Not that I'm aware of :) Where did you hear that?

Ok, now I"M looking for a secret ending! Hmmm no luck so far but I'm sure I can figure it out! (says the person who is terrible at figuring it out)

😁
