You can unlock Professor Balin's route around week 4, Friday. If the option to find Grey appears, don't take it. After that Professor Balin will talk to you about your training progress.
I'm wondering this as well! The option was grayed out for me , which I'm assuming had something to do with not being super thoughtful about my stats and character approval, but I would find it super helpful to see a guide or at least some general guidance on what to prioritize to unlock this route :) TYIA!
It happens after your first Tutoring session with Arien, Balin will call you into his office to ask how tutoring is going. If you tell him you'd rather be tutored by someone else, he will offer to tutor you. :)
before i get to an actual review: I'm getting 20 endurance whenever I take the class that boosts it, i am on v2.1 of the game. so when other stats are still at ~30, it's up at 100+.
(i just realized there is an actual review form and this should have gone there, however, I already typed it up here and it won't let me copy and paste. please excuse me)
My feelings are right in the middle. The premise grabbed me, I really enjoyed the demo, as well as the game pretty much until you lock in your romance. (full disclosure; I've only done the baked in romances so far) The other RO's just kind of disappear after, only showing up when the main story requires. You're still going through every single day and even though you still have the main story and RO story (except rheala) it makes the game feel really empty in the latter half.
This is something I would expect from a very short VN or like a jam, not a full VN.
I enjoyed the characters (esp Grey, he's right up my alley)! This is part of the reason I was so bummed they stopped showing up much. On this note: characters not reacting at all to the MC romancing someone is a little disappointing. I expected something from Rheala at least.
Last negative point: this felt less like a college story and more like a reskinned high school story to me.
Varied endings are also fun. I love that the epilogues aren't the same for the different characters (ex: the ROs react and end differently even when you choice say, the council oracle ending,) I mention this b/c of the lack of reactivity mentioned above, and I was surprised that I liked the drop out ending the most!
TD;LR- I don't regret buying and playing this game, but it falls short in some aspects that are important to me.
Hello, the final choice doesn't appear, I tried to : - change the resolution (full screen, windowed) - reinstall the game - star a new game If anyone had the same problem et managed to resolve it...
This is a pesky bug that has been popping up that we haven't been able to solve yet. Apparently, on that empty screen, the choices ARE there, just invisible. (try clicking in the blank space and see if you can get to the ending). I am assuming it's a video driver issue. But I am unsure, I'm still trying to figure out what's causing it. I am sorry you are stuck. But thanks for the info. I'm going to try some more possible fixes for the next patch.
Thanks for your help. Indeed, I can click and unlock the end, but I was afraid to miss something important. Is there a choice to make at this stage or the ending is only the consequence of the choices made during the game ? I hope you can sort this out. I love your game !
Depending on your stats, you may get more than one option on the ending screen. So it's definitely an important choice, but your playthrough may have only qualified for one ending. I'm workin on fixing this issue. Hopefully soon!

is there a guide for Professor Balen?

All you have to do to be eligible for his route is accept his offer of tutoring. :)
when do you do that?
It happens after your first Tutoring session with Arien, Balin will call you into his office to ask how tutoring is going. If you tell him you'd rather be tutored by someone else, he will offer to tutor you. :)

The Linux build is unplayable, week 1 Monday just goes into a black screen and stays there. Nothing shows up and the UI is unresponsive [version 2.1]
Edit: after playing the windows build via proton, it seems the first vision video refuses to play on linux
Thanks for the report! I'll look into why videos arent play via linux.

Hi! Are you on version 2.1? Also, are you on Windows or Mac?
Hi! Yes, my game is up to date (steam version) and I play on Windows 11.
This is a pesky bug that has been popping up that we haven't been able to solve yet. Apparently, on that empty screen, the choices ARE there, just invisible.

Does this game have a demo?
It's difficult to know if a game is good without trying it out.
