So few things in my quick play through. Before I begin I'm aware this is very early access. I'm not here to say bad things about it, I hope the best for it's future. First almost no one is ever alone even temporarily. It kind of makes being sneaky not exist. The best thing to do is slap on the halo and get them to follow you to a corner and hope no one comes over. If your detection get high it's best to just sleep till it lowers. There's no repercussion to not attending school/job. Finally the player can fly in the prison area. I noticed after I paid the exp bail and walked out of the cell it would happen. I think it has something to do with the walls. I didn't test it much, sorry.
I wish the dev all the best in this endeavor and hope it goes well for them.
