In Arms of Static
A downloadable game for Windows
In Arms of Static is a surrealist game that focuses on narrative through strange images and scenarios inspired by the La La Land games made by Matt Aldridge. Everything in the game was made by me. The game has six unique endings and takes around 40 minutes to an hour to play through entirely.
Controls: W A S D for movement, E to interact, ESC to instantly quit the game.
Soundtrack
Tools: GameMaker Studio, Audacity, MuseScore 3.

Try downloading this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=35 That should fix it, let me know if it doesn't!
thanks, that fixed it! got 5 of the endings:
hand
fish eat cat
fish destroy heaven
there is no reward
sinew boy
how do i get the other ending? talking to the static people seems to have no impact
Empty hand/Full hand are two separate endings, so you got them all. Thanks for playing!
Hey I watch that guy's videos (neco the sergal)
I don't get why no one else has posted yet, but, comical enough since I look and am reminded the history I already have with your previous game, Sinew, although if I recall, I gave my criticisms and all that. I can safely say that I am enjoying the depth and intrigue that this game is providing, will delve further.
Thanks for playing! Don't overthink the endings, you've already got two :)
I got two already o.O? So, eaten by the birds and standing on the hand were two endings?
Yep!
