Hmm, alright.
The thing is the game already starts me with 5k. Also this 1 second travel around the city by foot blocks you in the tutorial. I can of course skip the tutorial but I'd rather not play with a feature like this.
So I'm wondering what can I do to play "normally" cause right now I'm forced to play like this.
I remember when this game didn't have this feature.
When you start the introduction, you should only have $10 in cash after Claire gives you money to go to the store to pick up milk that she forgot to buy. Once you buy the milk, you should have $7 remaining.
The option to skip the introduction on day 1 was removed just before going live on Steam on October of last year. So my guess is either you're playing an older version or you're using an earlier save (from version 0.8.3 or higher).
At no time should you start out with that high of an amount of money on hand.
During the tutorial, everything on the phone (with exception for Messenger, Save, Load and Quit) will be locked until you complete it.
Without looking at your save to see what's going on, I'm at a loss for an explanation as to what is happening in your game. Now, it is possible to manually edit your save, once it's been created, to increase the amount of money you have available. We have seen instances where people typed the amount of money they had wrong, which resulted in a bugged save/game.
