Are you looking for alternate endings? Short Guide Without Spoilers
Hello! Here's a short guide on how to get all 5 endings in Start Running. I am going to try to keep it as spoiler free as possible, but there will be some minor spoilers as you get deeper into the guide.
Thanks for playing Start Running!
Ending 1:
Vague
In order to get ending 1, you need to make sure that everyone is safe.
Specific
In order to do this, you'll need to find a way to convince Frances to come with you, even if you have Stash. To do this, you must do something in the sewers before you get to her. If you don't have an item, you cannot convince her, no matter what you say.
Detailed
You must have Stash with you.
Before you get into the sewer, you must have the bottle opener. In the sewer, you need to get the coin from the hole that you can enter into with Stash. You must use the coin on the vending machine. Give the item from the vending machine to Frances. Convince her to come with you and Stash.
Ending 2:
Vague
You will likely get this ending your first playthrough. Don't be specifically mean to anyone though.
Detailed
You can either have Stash or leave her behind, but you can't both pick Stash up and intentionally let Frances go into the sewer.
Ending 3:
Vague
Be an asshole to everyone.
Detailed
Pick up Stash.
Tell Frances to go deeper into the train station.
Close the door on Joshua's face.
Visit the CEO.
These next endings require beating the game once first.
Ending 4:
Vague
Pet The Dog. A Lot. In fact, pet anything you can.
Detailed
Pet Stash in every room. Multiple times if you can.
This ending will start to take place before you even enter the sewer.
You must also pet Frances.
You can also pet buttons!
Pet everything you can.
Ending 5:
Vague
You need the toilet brush to do this ending.
Detailed
You must use the toilet brush in the weird hole where you can dig dirt in the basement.
Once you've done this, just try to use the toilet brush as much as possible everywhere.
Show it to Frances. Use it everywhere you can.
Don't let Joshua in the elevator, I think? Maybe he won't want to get in. I should have written this guide when I wrote all the code.
This ending will take place before you get the keycard in the office.

Is the ending where this is relevant tied to a specific other route? I've finished both endings 1 and 2 with over 1000 pets from at least ten times on every screen and haven't come across any change.

I added another note to ending 4 - if you still haven't gotten it, let me know if that helps.
