No Time News

Hello fellow players.

I wanted to compile a quick list of the bug fixes which were added in previous patches along with some newer additions.

Weirdly enough the gamma/contrast option stopped working, the cause was, that it only got called as a method once when switching to or from psx. But that begs the question, how did it work prior to that, without me changing it.

I suspect Mim to be behind this, what do you guys think?

Enjoy :D

-Added nice Water Falls above the dam
-Added a cave with some hill men above where the dam is, some time in the 1500s
-Fixed the Gamma/Contrast Slider in game
-Alterations to "The Last Stage" in the dialogue with crimson and the last comic.
-Removed Mim for above reasons

An arcade machine appeared in the 6/12 store. Can you beat the high score? I've added a metallic slider to have more variety in the cars looks!

You will find newspapers lying around the city or at the post office. They refresh every 5-10 years giving unique stories. Depending if you are in ACT I or II you will get two different tellings of the timeline by reading the newspaper.



There is a ghost ship appearing in ACT III.
The Mystery Crimson Quest was replaced with a quest revolving around this ship. Will you solve the mystery?

You trigger the quest right after reaching Pine Lake with Athor, and having helped Jason with the basic things you enter Crimsons office, to find out about The Aurora...

Work is progressing on Edward's Sewer Adventure, a small story game in the ps1 style graphics, about Edwards encounters while being lost in the sewers as a youngling.

Me and Averie are slowly finishing up the basics of the game, the bare bone mechanics so to speak.

After that will come the actual story. Here is a little sneak peek if you want a better description of the game. Rotate the 3d model around:

You can also follow Averie to get regular saturday posts about it!

Next up will be two more major side quests, before adding a conclusion type side quest, which will wrap your entire story up in a nice package to look back at.

I wish you a good week, God bless and enjoy the update :)

A new update has been released yesterday, along with a few patches.
Most of the newest additions include items for the Epilogue quest, to play with in Freeroam!

One example is the remote control, have fun playing around with it!
Find out what happened to Edward in the Epilogue Quest! This is the first part, there is definitely not going to be a second secret ending. Definitely ...not.


Most streets now feature appropriate street labels, and other details have been added to the world, to make it look more filled with unique content.


On different note. Averie, an admin on our discord server is practicing her unity3d skills!
I am aiding her occasionally in creating one of the first anthology short story games for the No Time Universe :D

The first entry will be revolving around Edwards Venture into the Sewers. The game will be purposefully made in the PlayStation One graphical aesthetic. It will be entirely free to download and play on Gamejolt, once finished. I will announce it ahead of time, Stay tuned!


God bless, enjoy the rest of the Easter Octave.
