A game made for Mini Ludum Dare 42

"Earth will be Destroyed" / Douglas Adams

My entry for MiniLD42 is "The Ends of the Earth" a tribute to Douglas Adams. 
It's the first text based game I've made in years. I made it in about 15 hours over two days. The game isn't where I wanted it (that will become apparent if you play it through), but I lost my drive to keep working on it and decided to just start finishing it. 
All in all it's not great, but it more or less a complete game. It's a text adventure inspired by the things I remember hearing/reading about Adams. I tried to make it somewhat similar to the Hitchhiker's Guide video game, but of course with it's own unique story.  

Keep in mind I'm not a writer... I'm sure there are dozens (or more) typos. It also crossed my mind (after I had started), that a lot of the audience might not speak English natively. The game does a lot of guess work for the "natural language processing" bit, and I apologize that playing the game may require a fluent understanding of English, but then again even that might not help.
