Part of the fun comes from finding the endings yourself, and if you have a resource that tells you how to do that it would just become pointless. I'm assuming you mean like a complete answer sheet to all the endings. You could make a written guide for the players, but I personally think that would be overkill. It's also just really satisfying to complete a "To-Do List", and it gives the player a reason to become a completionist. If the player can physically see an unknown ending and then see it filled in later, they will experience a sense of reward for their time and effort spent searching for that ending. The first is obviously to lessen frustrations of the players, but secondly is to give the player a tangible reward. Everything is completely at your discretion. Keep in mind all of what I just said is extremely hypothetical, and mostly just what I would personally add. Like maybe a picture of a book for the bookworm humanoid ending, or maybe even just a zoomed in picture of their face for example. The ones the player has never gotten would be gray with a ? icon, the ones they have would have some other icon. When you click the "Previous Endings" button, it shows you 21 boxes with their letters next to them. Like instead of having a how to play screen at the beginning you could have a home page with a "Play/Start New Run", "How to Play", and "Previous Endings" buttons for example. More specifically, a non-intrusive guideline to keep the player organized. So essentially what I had in mind was a way to give everyone notes because they probably won't do it on their own. I do think they're really really light frustrations, maybe frustration is too strong of a word, but they're not good nonetheless. This is bad because finding the endings in your game was really fun! You should do everything you can to encourage players to keep searching for endings. Your game isn't challenging at all, so I think players not knowing how to continue will serve more to frustrate them rather than make them feel more rewarded by challenge. Homegrown Pet is essentially the opposite of a 'rage' game like "Getting Over It With Bennet Foddy" or "Cuphead". This is just my own observation about your game though, so I'm not sure if other people will find other aspects more enjoyable or play the game differently than I did. These frustrations the player may have is arguably their own doing, but in game design any frustration for any reason is bad. I imagine a lot of people who play the game will just try to cram everything in their head and then eventually stop because it's too hard to continue. That being said, I do believe me taking notes is probably a lot more than most people will do. It was hard to remember what I did in the past and was hard to think of new ways to proceed. I did this because it was too hard to juggle my previous endings around in my head because eventually I had gotten probably like 15 or so of them. I just wrote the letter, the name, and a quick summary of what I did to achieve it. When I played your game, I ended up keeping track of the endings I had previously gotten on a white board. It's small in the sense that the scope isn't very extreme, you just click buttons for one minute and then read and look at cool art, but not short because finding those endings can take some time comparatively.
I spent about 40 minutes on your game and didn't find all the endings (which is good because I was having fun the whole time the unknown endings gave me a reason to keep playing). Even though the premise is simple and runs are only 1 minute long, it does take some effort to find a good deal of the endings. 1.First thing I'd like to mention, is that your game is more "small" than it is "short".
