Follow the official RUENACLE routes for four romance/horror endings, place two saves efficiently, and understand why the published NO ENDING directions remain ambiguous.
Full ending spoilers. RUENACLE changes its finale according to whom you support in the stream and whom you hope to meet at the Halloween festival. The efficient approach is to build one Rue-leaning run and one Hot JellyDaddy-leaning run, then save immediately before the final meeting choice. The developer posted the walkthrough on October 1, 2026; the game page shows an October 15 update but no numbered build.

| NO ENDING | Developer repeats the same final Rue choice used above; exact trigger unresolved | Fifth listed ending | https://jitterrue.itch.io/ruenacle/devlog/1684755/ruenacle-all-endings-walkthrough-guide | 2026-10-15* | ⚠ |
1. Rue reply sequence
Nine replies for Rue. In order: (1) select the first option, (2) laugh at the deserved outcome, (3) react with laughter, (4) praise the story as the peak, (5) send hearts, (6) say Rue told the better story, (7) send the shirt reaction, (8) laugh again, (9) send hearts or the shirt reaction. The short on-screen anchors are FIRST, LMAO, HEARTS and SHIRT. Make Save 1 after these nine replies.
2. Hot JellyDaddy reply sequence
Nine replies for JD. In order: (1) ask where Hot JD is, (2) express sympathy for JD, (3) send a sobbing reaction, (4) say the story will give you nightmares, (5) send the tomato reaction, (6) ask to hear that story every night, (7) send a ghost, (8) send a ghost or tomato, (9) sob again. Watch for SOB, TOMATO and GHOST. Make Save 2 just before the festival choice.
3. Using Save 1 and Save 2
Four-ending shortcut. Save 1 plus a Rue meeting produces Rue Romance; reload it and meet JD for JD Horror. Save 2 plus JD produces JD Romance; reload it and meet Rue for Rue Horror. The save prompt is the line about possibly catching the Halloween festival before leaving, not the start of the game.
4. The NO ENDING problem
Why NO ENDING needs a warning. The official guide says to reload Save 1 or Save 2 and then choose Rue. But those exact combinations are already prescribed for the two Rue outcomes. The guide therefore does not uniquely identify a reproducible fifth route. A player comment describes reaching NO ENDING while giving middling responses. That is an anecdote, not a verified threshold or complete input sequence. Trying balanced chat reactions is a test idea, not a guaranteed walkthrough.
5. 31 CGs and the chat
About the 31 CGs. The game page advertises 31 collectible illustrations, and the developer confirms that horror endings have CGs too. The official walkthrough does not map every image to an unlock action. Completing the four reproducible routes does not, on its own, establish a 31/31 gallery.
Platform and mechanics. Released September 30, 2026, the game runs in HTML5 and offers Windows, macOS and Linux downloads. Chat also supports typed messages, but the published route evidence concerns the listed choices; no special typed command has been verified. In-stream advertisements and guest stories are community contributions, not documented requirements for an ending.
On October 9 the developer also posted a fanfiction story referenced in the in-game Quitch chat. It is optional lore, not a documented unlock step.

7. Conclusion
Bottom line: Build the two nine-reply profiles, save before the festival, and switch the final meeting choice to collect four outcomes efficiently. Treat NO ENDING and individual CG triggers as open verification items.
