The Hat Cat [RELEASE]
Two ways to finish the game
Table
Every run ends one of two ways: you escape the cat, or you stand and fight it. Each outcome awards its own badge, and you can only reach one ending per session.
| Escape route | survive long enough to get out before the cat catches you |
| Confrontation route | face the cat directly and fight back instead of running |
| Both badges | requires playing through each route at least once |
