Did you create the centrifugal spaces from an existing asset or was that 100% your work? It looks quite impressive.
The main hallway and the apartment hallway and many other are completely modeled by myself. Only some plastic textures are from . Thanks for the comment!
However, the benches in the main hallway were inspired by one of the assets in this bundle: . But I modeled it myself. The main hallway was inspired by those sets: and
Sadly I don't have references for the apartment hallway anymore.

If you hover over the locked symbol in the secrets menu you get a small hint. I don't want to be more specific, as I think they should be a little challenge.
I looked at the hint for #1 and have checked all three of the rooms indicated but can't seem to find a clickable spot.

Are some of these to be found during non-free-roam play?

No, they are only to be found in the free-roam. The highlighting for this secret on mouse over is really subtle because of the brightness.

OK, I'll visit the three rooms again. Thanks. I was wondering about non-free-roam because I can see the books during game play, but since I couldn't find a way to get behind the counter in free-roam, I wasn't able to see the books. I'll try again.

EDIT: I feel foolish. My mouse landed on it within seconds. Thanks! I think the rest of them are in places I don't have free-roam access yet, like the pool. That one surprised me because I had access to the other rooms unlocked in game play.

I'm definitely enjoying the game and will become a patron at the first of the month.

Ok, I've reached the end of the current story. I have everything but 9 and 14. I presume I need to have free-roam access to the pool, but I can't seem to get in. Am I missing something?
Thanks for the info I finally found the secret 14 in the sauna
In the sauna

I have a problem with secrets number 8 and 9. I searched the pool for nr 9 and found nothing and I have no idea for nr 8. Can someone help?
How do you get into the pool and sauna during free-roam? The door to the pool is not clickable for me.

There is a bug in the current version where spme rooms aren't unlocked. You can send me your save-file and I fix it manually. In the next update it will be fixed.

Will do. I'm not sure where the save-files are stored with Unity, though.

Some data is stored in:
C:\\Users\*username\AppData\LocalLow\Marvellous Lunatic\A Long Journey\

I have a "quick save" file in there, but cannot see my manual saves.

The save-files are the .txt files in this folder.

That's the only place where data and gamefiles are stored. Do you have more saves ingame than files in this folder? That would be weird.

How often is this updated?

Really liking it so far.
We've had 14 total releases for this title counting the original demo within the two years this thread has been going. However, many of those releases were, like the most recent two, bug fixes and repairs. This dev has been good about releasing regular updates of significant size about three times per year so we are due for another major release within the next couple of months. However, that is merely my guestimate based on prior posting history, not inside information. TBH, your guess is as good as mine. There may be additional information available directly from the dev on Patreon or Discord.

Marvellous Lunatic -

Hope that helps you, my friend. Adventure ever on, Phat;)(y)

Has anyone figured the DJ deck out yet?
IIRC, it is a memory challenge, not a hand/eye coordination test. To start, click the DJ console anywhere on the control panel. You watch the sequence of controls as they light up, then match that sequence by clicking them in the same order that they were lit. The sequence gets a little longer with each new round. Once you complete all of the rounds, you win the mini-game. :)

I tried and failed the DJ console multiple times and was about to quit when I received a similar response in forum as I am sending to you now. Armed with that little tid bit of information I beat the DJ game on my next attempt, no worries. :)

Hope that helps you, my friend. Adventure ever on, Phat;)(y)

At the moment, the only problem I see with the type of sandbox included in the game is the prolonged development time because I suppose it takes a bit longer to code it right than a regular VN. But as for the players' experience, this sandbox is not so bad; it only takes you a few clicks to get where you must go, and it's mostly used during the hidden-render hunt at the end of each update, which can be skipped if you don't give a fuck.

the sandbox in this game is pretty bad at least at the beginning, everything is the same, finding selene was one of the worst gameplay experiences i had, you just click on random rooms till you find her

you can copypaste the same area 10000 times OR you can have time based events but not both at the same time

and no, reading the hints screen every 2 minutes is not a solution, this is bad game design

Marvellous Lunatic How are you doing, dev? Is everything coming along nicely? :)
It's going well. A bit slower than I would like to but steadily. Basically I'm working on the last scene (lewd one) at the moment which is a bit longer as usually. And a few additional or missing images that came up in reviews are left to render, but those aren't that many. However, it's still a bit till I'm done with everything for the update.
Image count is over 700 at the moment and animations are only 2 at the moment. Had a lot of problems with trying to render animations this week. Which is especially annoying because the first animation rendered without any issues...

Here are a few preview images. Patreons have access to more and in hd :)

Whoa, 700 renders done already and it's not close to being complete! It'll be a pretty large update, it seems.
Thanks for your feedback. I really, really appreciate it :)

Just finished the last update, downloaded ages ago but totally forgot about it, hooked already.

I just love these type of games set in the future and especially in space, totally reminds me of the Chris Pratt/Jennifer Lawrence movie 'Passengers'.

I think the Author just released a "pre-beta" version for the new update. How is it going, bro?
