Time:
Every day is setup into Mornings and Evenings.
Generally every activity will take up one half of your day. This includes spending time with a girl. I recommend holding off on getting the girls until you’ve completely leveled up your Finance and started your Knowledge.
Bathroom
Your MC has a shy bladder. He’ll state that he’ll need to use the restroom. He won’t be able to go to the bathroom any other time.
Stats
You can check your stats with the cellphone.
Finances are the most important stat to raise quickly. Every scene with a girl takes up a half of the day and there’s no rush for any of them. With the exception of the Bear (Someone to Hug) and Rent quests. Finances skill will allow you to earn more money at your jobs.
Knowledge is the second most important stat to raise. You’ll get some skills from attending class, but the majority can be earned at the library. Remember, you can visit the library all day on the weekends, when possible. Your knowledge level is important because it’ll raise your correct answers on the test- which you can redo all your quizzes at the end of the 8 weeks. So you have some time.

Jobs
There are three part time jobs available.
1. Buns N’ Roses Bakery.
Open for business every day in the mornings.
The building is open at night for visitors.
2. Bar.
Every Day, Nights only.
3. Koohii Bar (Coffee)
Every day. All day.
Location | Rank 1 | Rank 2 | Rank 3 | Rank 4 | Rank 5 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bakery | 5500 | 8000 | 10500 | 13000 | 15000 |
Bar | 6500 | 8000 | 9500 | 11000 | 12500 |
Coffee Shop | 5200 | 8200 | 11200 | 14200 | 17200 |
Bar (Adjusted) | 6100 | 7600 | 9100 | 10600 | 12100 |
Coffee Shop (Adjusted) | 4800 | 7800 | 10800 | 13800 | 16800 |
Ranks are for the Finances stat.
Adjusted values take into account the 400Y train ticket for travel. If you work at the Coffee Shop in the morning, you may not start back at home for the Evening time. So you’ll save 400Y by working at the Coffee Shop in the morning.
Tips
There’s only a few quests that are timed. Otherwise, meeting girls is all up to your timeline, I suggest skipping them mostly until you’ve leveled up your Finances and Knowledge.
I recommend leveling your Financial skills as much as possible. Remember you can go to the Mentor in Another City Friday, Saturday and Sunday. All day.
The Coffee bar (Below the arcade) in the other city also pays the best at Rank 3 and above.
Once you’ve completely leveled your Finances, focus on Knowledge. The other three can be done whenever.
- You can purchase the bear by interacting with the TV. You have to interact with the couch to interact with the TV. I assume the MC has a TV Remote. You’ll need about 4000Y by Sunday, Week 2.
- You can purchase tools at night, near the monks spawn point. You’ll need 2000Y.
Minigames
The Game.
At home, on the computer. Take control of a squid character and swim them around ontop of the yellow blocks.
Tips:
1. The character “Drifts” about half a character length. Use this to fine tune where the character is.
2. You can stick to blue blocks and slide down. You won’t “Hit” red blocks if you slide down the blue blocks above them.
3. You’ll drift downward slowly when not actively swimming.
Ultra Space Power 3
Located at the Arcade, it costs 300Y for a life. It’s a bullet hell-like game.
Tips:
I recommend getting 1 speed and 1 firepower upgrade before progressing. You can find power ups inside the red containers. You’ll need to shoot them open.
That’s all. Have fun ❤
