Okay, so I beat the game, I got the cool ending after the wireframe world and I got everyone else out.

Here are some things that qualify as loose threads for me that I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions on how to follow up on them/if it's worth it.

1.) Is there any sort of New Game option? Like if I beat the game and start a new one from that menu is there easter eggy dialogue, etc?

2.) I didn't get all the specks of dust. is there anything worth seeing if I actually get them?

3.) The betamax tape of blazing saddles from the movietron. I got it but didn't ever find a place to watch it. Is there a place/payoff for that?

4.) I used the head of the navigator and found the x marks the spot in the woods but never found a shovel to go after it there. Doug inherited a shovel from chuck at the will reading, is there a way to get that or his old shovel? Anything else there in the woods besides the plaque?

5.)There's an atari cartridge on the road as you come towards town from the bridge/trestle trail. Ever find a use for it?

6.) Is there a place to use the items from the other items you can actually pick up from the Occult Books Door? The cursed tea that makes you speak multiple languages? The cursed eye drops?

7.) Was there a point/payoff to getting the magic mushrooms for Morena besides the cute dialogue about the fun she and leonard are going to have with them later?

8.) My nephew playing through also on hard mode had a scene occur when Reyes got hit on the head and dragged into the sewers, but not the same sewers that you get to from the trestle trail. Is there anything super cool about that branch of the story that I missed? If so, where should I try to make that happen?

On the whole I think it was a cute game and the ending prompts some interesting philosophical questions, but I do wish there had been a bit more of a traditionally strong ending besides the reboot. I guess I just have to look to the endings for the other characters for that.
