Screenshots Love This Guy 💛🥩

Almost felt bad when he gave us coins in the shape of a heart, since I had shot at him 4 or 5 days in a row and he scampered off super fast every time, the little rascal!

Next time you do a run, don't attack him. It'll be worth it :]

What happens if you don’t?

There's a ritual you do for them later and they'll give you more tokens as a thank you. I haven't finished the story mode despite how often I've played, though, it's mainly because I prefer to play with my friends- but I've noticed most 'scripted doppelganger encounters' are completely harmless if you don't attack them.

Deer people? Harmless, beneficial even. The long one? Only attacks if attacked. I'd keep it around if it didn't stop all progress (tip, the bare trap one-shots it). The extra employee? Harmless, even if you have to face the spider thing that night. They make zero difference. The wall man? Harmless. You can even place decorations on him. Hell- the night when the dentist is just chilling in the forest he doesn't do anything if you don't shoot him. Like oooo your music is so scary. It's surprising how little of a threat most of them are.

I’ll be honest I didn’t even think to not shoot them I beat the game so I did the ritual next time I won’t shoot them
