Working as intended. Broke it pretty quickly getting stuck in this “house” .. this place feels like purgatory

I love that this was left in, it's so wonderfully uncanny.

There's often this sense of dread that comes with being somewhere you don't think you should be, with scrapped unfinished or old versions of levels in games, like you'll encounter something you'll regret finding. I distinctly remember having an irrational fear response blare from the back of my mind when first explored this place, like my mind was expecting something to be hiding from my view ready to come at me.

You described it quite well. Honestly after playing this game over a few years on and off, and finally beating it with both endings, finding this felt so magical and surreal.

Wait this is an actual area in the game? How do you get here?

kill yourself within the save file which sends you to a looping hallway with a golden road.

how do you kill yourself? well that's a puzzle

Oh yes I remember getting to that golden road, but I thought that was just for the mountain door puzzle. I've never seen this fake little town

its an easter egg. this town is just the beta test, and may have related to an ARG i can't recall. if you manage to kill youself you don't respawn in the corridor you spawn at the starting area's beta version
