Gold fishes clone and duplicate around her, follow her, and sometimes they clone too much. When this happens, she flies into the starry sky, stuck hanging there. But sometimes, they enclose her in a hug, leading to a red 70% opacity sign filling the screen and reads, “THE END, GOOD WORK AND LOVE HARD!” which kills the avatar and puts her back to the beginning of the game again.
