Not sure. I believe I've played 0.36 which ends with Maya on rooftop. I've downloaded patch-only from OP post as I usually do and assumed that "there is nothing" is a way to represent Sensei state. But it took a bit too long and some texts were written in a way that suggest there is something visual that explains what's going on.I unironically miss huggy boy. It was genuinely hilarious.
I think you've borked it, 0.37 should have the day cycle back in a limited format. Did you miss an update, maybe?
Anyways, I've downloaded full version, did a diff on it and my install and was missing a lot of images. So now everything seem to be fine and I gotta replay from my closest to apocalypse save to see what I was missing visual-wise. Still not sure if update-only download is corrupted or why I had images missing.
