Pretty sure he survived if you left through the window after killing everyone.

You meet him again later iirc, though only very briefly.

That's weird, I remember doing the opposite - he only survives if you fight it out with him. Is GP's save bugged or am I having Mandela effect?

States as such here (Spoilers, of course): [0]

Its almost 20 years ago, so i might have swapped the front door and the window. I do know for sure he becomes a killing machine if you hide in the closet instead of running away as he directs you.

That's correct. But where's the fun in that ;-)
