This isn't a VN. It is a sandbox game. Sadly I only noticed this after a while. Once I got to the 2nd quest and the hint said be at place X between 8 and 10 but no obvious way to skip time until then. I simply couldn't be assed to walk empty floors for nearly a full ingame day, so I simply saved and quit.
Dude... Main screen ----> HELP -----> check commands and User Interface ---> you will see where the skip time icon is.

Don't blame the author. Blame yourself.

And NO, this is NOT a sandbox game.

It's a kinetic novel. No story branches. Once in a while the dialogue stops, you click the SD icon on the screen, you check the hints, the hints tell you where and when you have to be next, you look at the map, you click on the map, and keep on reading the story. That's it.

and that's why I don't get why all of that is needed in the first place, just doesn't make sense to me. You could cut all the sandbox elements from the game and literally nothing of value would be lost

I guess it's because this game is a work in progress. I'd recommend people to just play-read the story till you arrive at the end of the update, save, then explore the environment, collect the hidden pictures and play the dj puzzle game. This is what the game itself recommends you at the final screen.

yeah it still early in development so we will see... mind you I'm not really complaining about it (as long as I don't have to spend more time navigating sandbox rather than enjoying the story). As for the other stuff like collectibles and whatnot, not my thing, even if it's integrated into regular gameplay in other games I just ignore them.

Just got back into playing this update and i forgot how good this game looks the only downside is that it took so long to get a new update that i really forgot what this game is all about...

I've started modeling every environment and asset on my own in cinema4d and blender, but felt the progress was to slow. So i recently started kitbashing locations to be able to continue in a faster way. I think there is only one environement i took as it as and just retouched the surfaces for octane. The characters are obviously created in Daz3D as i'am not very good with organic modeling. Hardsurface modeling is more my style.

So yeah, quite a few locations are completly self modeled, more informations on that are in the development thread. I will keep on adding more custom assets and locations later in the development as i want to have a unique touch to the game. As i said, for the sake of progress i won't have the time to model everything myself, even if i would like to do so.
You ever think about selling your models?

Yeah, I did. However, there are a few problems with that. Some meshes of those environments aren't total clean modeled and have some issues. To make those meshes properly I need more time which I'd rather spent on progressing the game at the moment. Another thing is, I would need to create materials in IRay which I'm not used to. My materials are only for octane at the moment which isn't used by too many Daz3D users. Also I occasionally use some bought textures where I'm not sure about the legal aspects if I would include them in my environments for sale. If I'm not allowed (I'm sure I can read that up on the sellers page, I just haven't had the time yet) I would be forced to create similar textures which again takes quite a lot of time.
But when creating new environments I'm trying to be more careful to be able to sell them at some point.

After I'm finished with the first act I may take some time to clean up the meshes and prepare them for selling them. But like I said, at the moment my focus is to finish the first act.

Tried the 'code' minigame but i'm one of those who is unable to solve this. Searched the post but in-game help is only for pateons. Any tips to get going with the VN ?
