Possible Spoilers, Proceed at own risk!

Finished the game, and just wondering if anything is ever explained in depth? Did I screw up the ending with my choices or something?

Saved the dog, saved the hunter, picked the mother

Does it even make a difference? I enjoyed this game but I'm hungry for more. It was really enjoyable.

I need spoilers to help me through a particular puzzle lol

I believe we got the same ending; Saved the dog, saved the hunter, picked the father/killed the father the final achievement for both me and my friend was "The past I want to change" but there is a secret achievement called "The past that will not change". Other people on the forum said you can get the achievement by replaying the game but choosing the opposite character. ex. if you chose blue/robots, this time choose red/animal, and vice versa. I wonder if that means that the game has a different ending after doing that ? That's my theory but I haven't had time to try and get the secret achievement yet.

I know the endings are slightly different. Whatever parent you choose ends up dying, but i'm not sure what difference the hunter makes. I let him die and i wonder what would've happened if he was alive or if it makes a difference.

I don't know how relevant this is to this post anymore, as it was made in February. But, I got one ending by saved the dog, saved the hunter, and picked the mother. I then played again, but with the same friend, which I think is the only way to get the second ending. But, in the second play-through, I chose saved the dog, killed the hunter, and picked the dad. I don't think these choices matter as I think the important part is just playing it twice with the same person but as the opposite character.

having played with the same person three separate times, i echo everything that's been said in the previous comments- however, it is absolutely worth the third playthrough, as there's a final scene that ties it all together

Indeed the parent option picks the one that the hunter will kill at the house scene.

Whether or not to save the hunter only affects the scene at the end, there if you don't save him, the police pin him as the murderer of his own family and all the animals in the forest, but since he is already dead, problem solved.

If you save him, he's caught trying to save the remains of his family using the animal corpses, and is sent to an insane asylum instead, where he also dies.

Saving the dog is not an optional thing, that always happens to show that it is possible.

I know I am a bit late to respond. I got the hidden achievement. Play it with the same friend 3 times. Sit through the whole credit scenes for the first and second play-throughs. On the second playthrough after the credit scene, the character will make a phone call while on the train. On the third run, you can choose the charters (it doesn't matter who you choose). Those characters are the adult version of the kids. and then you'll see the hidden ending.

Oh so there is a true ending? is it ever explained how
Haru got turned into a Cronenberg?
and the main characters found out they are brothers?
also what made them faint and altered their perceptions in the first place?

Thank you, the third playthrough didn't occur to me till I read this post. I wish there was more information on what happened thereafter, although I'm glad to have gotten some better closure
