She has different dialogue for 0-10, 11-20, 21-30, and 31-40 points, but the sneeze button has the same dialogue no matter what, unfortunately, as long as you have more than 10 points. I'm definitely going to make more adaptive dialogue in the future... just couldn't be bothered now sldkjfsdlf It's difficult for me to get into the later stages, too, I'm going to be a little more careful with further level design.
Speaking of things I couldn't figure out how to do, yeah I toyed with different ideas for death until I just gave up and slowed you down for I forget how long. A couple of the cells were placed specifically so you can't get them while you're dead, just to make it have more weight, but if you try hard enough, you can keep increasing your points even during that window. It might change in the future? Like, resetting your position until you 'respawn'? I would have done smth like that for this build except I didn't want to fuck with the camera too much because that's held together by duct tape bay bee. I do not know if the speedrun bs you speak of is possible since I suck at platformers, it might take too long to get to all the floors before they respawn. In addition to health powerup, I might add a speed one?
I'll add lore eventually, I promise. It's supposed to be two different points of view, although I guess I didn't - the germ is one character, and the person she's dating is another. Some mention of that is made on the jam page, but the fact that I forget where and how it's worded isn't a good sign for the overall lore stability... 'Do we decide which of us is the original' made me think of a democratic germ society though which is ridiculously adorable. Little germ politicians in teeny tiny ties.
also... listen i cannot help it. covid terrifies me but headcolds are hot- *shot*
