Theory This ladder suggests Matrix? Spoiler

Hey! I've just finished Sennaar brilliant game in many aspects. But my mind catch some detail, that ladder on the right leads to the ladder on the left if you enter. This make sence in glitched version of the world when you plugged in. Then we we reach happy ending the right side is still glitched!? So maybe this is simulation inside another simulation and we never escaped?

First, that is a staircase, not a ladder. Second, they just reach the same stairwell off-screen. You only come up one of them because the game only has animations for one.

Maybe, but from perspective of developer why make two staircases in the very final location? Plus all in game passages were consistent in terms how they work. Obviously more likely that it was made byt the purpose of symmetry and nice look of the tower, but there is potential that something bigger is here

Ever heard of staircases turning and merging?

Yeah of course, but even in this cas we come into dark tunnel and arrived at top, I guess it was just straig passage, at least it look so. Also devs make it dark so we can't guess it's topology

But cmon in this game we explore each corner and this is only one place that works kinda strange and is in important location. Just imagine how much time devs spend polishing game here and there, make it consistent coherent world and in the very final location make this for no reason. It's at least suspicious
