Version 13.6 - Instability 

Hi everyone!

Today's update introduces Unstable Crestspace, as well as a new battle system. It took me a bit to figure out the finer details, but I've been able to set this up to be a much more versatile system than our standard battles. Rather than spending hours making new battle scenes, this is much more plug-and-play and will save me a significant amount of time in the future. I can also easily make edits/additions, so expect to see a much more fleshed-out system as time goes on! I plan to use this new battle system for a lot of side content/random encounters in the Unstable Crestspace, so please let me know if you have any suggestions to improve it! With the next update, I'll be adding some variations to the images/text in battle, but I wanted to see how people felt about it before I started expanding it. Please let me know what you think and try to break it if you can!

As for next update, I have consulted the great, mighty Patreon council, and we have decided that the next update will be the entirety of the Summer Resort Event! Yes, the entire event. This originally was going to be a two-part relatively small event, but I have a lot planned, so I'm going to buckle down and make this update huge! That being said, I plan for this update to release mid-July at the latest, so it'll be by far the longest wait between updates we've ever had. I will, however, be releasing weekly progress updates for Patreon members just to make sure everything is going in the right direction. If things seem a bit quiet on here for the next month or so, just know that Mr. Scribbly is cookin' :p

I've also added a new interaction scene with 95. Now, everyone has at least 2 standard interaction scenes and, considering 13.x will end with the conclusion of the Summer Event, this will be the last of the "interaction refresh" scenes with updates for now. Of course, the girls will always be getting more as time goes on, but I do want to make sure I focus on progressing the story as well.

Development of Daybreak Nightbreak and projects like the UI remake are only possible due to my generous supporters on Patreon! If you've been enjoying the game and wish to support it, consider supporting to get your name etched into the game permanently!

Daybreak Nightbreak is currently only a passion project for me, as I have a job. This means that I'll only be able to update the game once or twice a month, depending on the size of updates. If you'd like updates to come out more frequently, considering subscribing!

About Daybreak Nightbreak:

Daybreak Nightbreak is a sandbox-styled visual novel dating simulator, solo developed by me, Mr. Scribbly. The story follows a young man through his discovery of an alternate dimension mirroring his own, as well as the implications behind the actions of an ever-growing doomsday cult. Unbeknownst to the young man, he's been infused with the ability to form his own group of worshippers, which may be the key to stopping the collapse of both realms.

We're in our 2nd year of public development and growing stronger as a community! We're well into the 2nd Chapter, and the world has been thrown into chaos! Can you be the person to unite the city against an overwhelming threat?


Daybreak Nightbreak takes place in the fictional city of Chios: a smaller, but somewhat developed hub of interesting characters. Enjoy searching for new opportunities while exploring around town, running a small business in direct competition with a major corporation, and spending some time hopping between these two uncannily similar locales. Participate in a mob drama, check in on your old college, and go gambling! The wide breadth of stories available will keep you immersed in a lively city, and they've only just begun!

In terms of a relative time period, the general public is in the modern age, with other relevant parties leaning more towards some sci-fi or even medieval technology and practices. The encroachment of several outside parties will drive varied points of conflict throughout the main story, as well as many of the side stories.


The narrative design of the game focuses on major decision making, choices with consequences, business/finance management, large-scale puzzle solving, relationship building, combat, and more. The current version has the entirely of the intro and first chapter completed, with the second chapter already in the works. The estimated playtime of the current version is well over 15 hours, with at least 10 major quests.

Daybreak Nightbreak's writing and design structure is directly inspired by games like Yakuza and Mass Effect, aiming to provide a wealth of different activities along with a varied cast of characters to grow attached to, with a sexualized twist. The game is being designed to have a 3 Act Structure. Set-Up, Decision Making, Payoff. The introduction and first chapter have served to set up the second chapter, and the available decisions will be directly affected by the community's input.


The current build of Daybreak Nightbreak contains the following themes/fetishes:

  • Harem
  • Milf
  • Mind Control/Mindbreak/Corruption
  • Ahegao
  • Big Tits
  • Big Ass
  • Cheating (NOT NTR/cheating on the player)
  • Cosplay
  • Creampie
  • Exhibitionism
  • Virgin
  • Couple Seduction
  • Goblins (As in Goblin Girls)
  • Lesbian
  • Robot Girl
  • Vampires

Daybreak Nightbreak will NEVER have:

  • NTR
  • AI
  • Piss/Scat
  • Sexualized Gore/Mutilation (Although you should expect blood, as there are scenes of violence.)
  • Necrophilia
  • Loli/Shota

Anyone asking for these will be ignored. I will never have the intention of adding these.

Daybreak Nightbreak's development will be primarily community driven, and frequent polls and surveys will be released to the public, with extra polls exclusively for Patreon & SubscribeStar members.

NO IN-GAME CONTENT FOR DAYBREAK NIGHTBREAK WILL EVER BE EXCLUSIVE TO PATREON /SUBSCRIBESTAR DONORS, BUT DONORS WILL GET EXCLUSIVE EARLY ACCESS TO BUILDS, ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER EXCLUSIVE PERKS .


About me:

I'm Mr. Scribbly, the main (and only) developer for the Daybreak Nightbreak! I've spent the past two years developing my passion project for anyone willing to give it a chance. While I know Daybreak Nightbreak won't be the first of its genre, I'm hoping that the two years of development and refinement, along with my personal philosophies on writing and game design, will help the project become something important to you. I'm hoping to make this into my primary job, so please consider donating if you'd like to see where the game is headed, or possibly influence it yourself!

Thanks for checking out the page! :D

Yo is the new update coming out soon?

Yes it is! I've been working hard on a big summer update! It's 2-3 weeks away from being finished, but there's a ton of good stuff coming! Check the most recent blogpost for more info on that :p

Hey just wanted to state that I may have found a tiny bug because after rescuing Eisheth I went to her room to do you know anyway it seems to show me Sarah's selection and clicking on any seems to take you to Sarah's room though in saying this it seems to fix it's self after the first time so I just thought you should know 

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll take a look into it

You know I feel like I am bothering you too much now xD but I wanna see the game be the best that it can be and with that said the !MILD SPOILERS! Goblin passive income seems to override Saturday's alarm clock

(1 edit)

No, I'm actually very thankful for bug reports. I also want the game to be good as possible lol

That being said, the Goblin passive income seems to be working completely fine on my end when I tested it. Every day actually uses the same exact script, so if it skipped Saturday it should be skipping the other days as well. Would you be able to make sure you had someone active for that day and try again? And if it still doesn't work, please let me know who wasn't active for it? Thanks!

I had the vampire Ellainia on for Saturday

That was a completely different bug unrelated to the passive income that was only for Ellainia on Saturday. Needless to say, that's fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out!

(+1)

Ok first I just wanna say that I don't care this game is not finished yet and with that out of the way I wanna say with how long this game is taking to finish I completely forgot how unhinged Annabelle is. XD Annabelle once said "Little?! You're the short one here, you emo Fuck! XD

Yep, she's definitely somewhat unhinged. I can't wait to get to her personal quest to explore her more :p

(1 edit)

Hey first question when playing with lucky lucy I bet 500 and got 500 back but she says it's double or nothing also I could've sworn it was at some point before.

Second Question I found a closet in Aunt Jasmine's room what's it for I can't read it :3

Just tested on my end, looks like Lucy still functions properly. If you win, should have 500 more than what you started with.

As for the closet, ;)

Ok thanks and -_-

XD

(+1)

brooo how do I earn money! I need to build the walls for 100k but I only have 30k. And the only way to earn money is by doing missions or going to the fighting tournament but it only gives about 500 solas. And I cant do missions if I need 100k for a mission! Am I missing something? Haven't played the game for a while now.. (chapter 2 btw).

(+1)

That's actually the roadblock for the next update. You're at the end of the management content for this update. Thanks for playing enough to catch up!

(+2)

Ohhhh alright! Wish you the best creating the next update!

Hey, quick question where is the last character to find?

Light World Chios. You can talk to Danny for a hint as well

On porngameshub when your at chapter 2 at ian new building on jodi side quests it crashes and after a couple of times it deletes your save files fix this please

Where specifically is the crash? I also have not uploaded to and do not control anything that goes on with my game on porngameshub, so the file being deleted is entirely an issue on their end. Unfortunately there's not much I can do about the file deletion myself.

A ok no problem the cras happens just after clicking that button when you go to that company buth on a train

Update: i dont know what went wrong i started again from chapter 2 and now that part is fixed

Neat. If it somehow happens again and has a crash screen/log, please send that over to me so I can take a look.

Hey, quick question where do i find this mission

I believe you speak with Azalia (or Sarah, I never remember off the top of my head). It's for Halloween 2025

Thanks I am now caught up can't wait for the next update :)

Hi, got a lore question.

I might have forgotten how it works but aren't the crestrooms always with Red? Why can't captivations or Red go into the crest when they're in trouble but instead need to go back to the lab?

(+1)

Good question. It really depends on the scenario, but the general guidelines work like this:

1. Humans cannot enter the crest at will. They need Echo Water (also referred to as Crest Water) to be able to enter the crest. A supply of it is found at the lab. It was mentioned for the travels into the crest during Chapter 1, but it felt redundant to keep mentioning it, so it's now primarily implied.

2. Echo obviously can enter or exit the "inner crest" at will and Fae can enter if either Echo or Rend (the main character) allows them to without the use of Echo Water. 

3. Rend will always exit the crest in the same location that he entered it. Anyone else who exits will also be where Rend last entered it or next to Rend if he is not in the crest. At this time, no one can exit the crest without leaving with Rend. Echo cannot exit the crest without Rend being in the outside world at this time due to personal safety reasons. 

4. Echo can also attempt to "pull" Rend back into crest, but her ability to depends on her/his physical/mental states. While it's never explicitly stated, you can assume that every time you get a "game over" in Chapter 2, Echo attempted to pull you back into the crest, but failed. 

Two examples to describe how this works would be the prison section in Chapter 1 and the first intermission scene. For the prison section,if Rend is spotted by "Mrs. Nurse", he's panicking extremely, which prevents him from being able to be pulled into safety. Not only that, but Echo didn't even know she had the ability to do so until during the first intermission. And, as for the first intermission, while Rend was severely injured, he was in a "Safe Space", so he began to relax while unconscious. This brief moment allowed Echo to pull him, but she also endured severe physical trauma for it, going unconscious herself.

The lab is generally seen as Rend's "Safe Space" in Chapter 2, so it's where he is at his most calm, regardless of the situation. To avoid any interruption or potential dangers, people only enter or leave the crest at the lab aside from Echo who leaves and enters freely.

5. The ability for someone to enter the crest at all also depends on Echo's/Rend's physical/mental states. If he is extremely injured and/or stressed, which is common when fighting for your life, it may be impossible for anyone to enter, including both Echo and Rend.

So... yes, the crestrooms are with Rend at all times, but they are not always accessible. For the above reasons, Rend may not want or not be able to let someone enter his crest.

These aren't hard-and-fast rules and they'll almost certainly never be directly stated in game in their entirety, but that is what I abide by when I write anything that involves danger. These rules primarily serve to keep the ability to literally disappear to a safe-haven in check, as just allowing the player to "poof away" would kill most narrative tension involving violence.

I hope that answered your question! I appreciate the curiosity, so let me know if you have any other questions.

Wow I never expected such a detailed response. That makes a lot of sense, thanks very much for clarifying!.

Hey,

I was just wondering why Shia's text is blue?

Just finished the update though without SPOILING too much the first option was kind of easy no like I expected a battle XD

(+1)

Shia's text is blue? ----- fuck, I was making some last minute adjustments and messed up her dialogue strings. That'll be fixed next update lol

Also, I wanted the focus of this patch to be mostly about decision-making, so I didn't feel it was necessary to throw multiple combat sections in there. Thanks for the report though!

(+2)

Yeah, that's all good love the game keep up the good work :)

Hello Mr. Scribbly, how do I get out of here or where do I go?

(+1)

Check the top right, you can find your answer in there :p

(1 edit) (+1)

How do I unlock the two characters I’m missing? I’m in Chapter 1.

(+1)

You're only missing one. Check the city at night, or talk to Fortune for a more accurate hint :p

Damn wish I played this game in this platform.... I played it in PornGamesHub and I cant seem to carry over my save data for this patch :c

Damn, if that doesn't update, you do have the Chapter 1 skip option to help make things easier. You'd have to go through the current Chapter 2 stuff, but you can save like 10 hours which would make it a lot easier!

will the next updates have update patches?? Its lowk annoying to download  the whole file again and again

Hello i still can't download this Android game is there other ways of downloading the Android version 

Added one, enjoy!

Thank you 

Question I can't download the Android version and it's taking too long can you add a different one instead of Google Drive something Google Drive something is slow and not even downloading at mine

Are there any plans for a captivation path for 95 not involving bimbofication?

In a way, yes.
Later on, you'll be getting modules to make her more customized, which will give her alternate personalities and designs. But you will need to have given her the sexbot module initially to have access to any of the Captivation-based content in the future.

If you don't like her personality with the sexbot module, still go for it. That's mostly a check for if you want Captivation content with her at all. I may make a second check for it in the future just to confirm, but I can't say for sure if I'll remember :p Hope that clarifies things!

Mr scribble can you put other way of downloading Android version 

I was wondering if there will be another Netori arc?

(+1)

It's coming sooner than you think... ;p

(+1)

Noice. I can't wait.

(-1)

Does anyone know where the phone is located?

Which phone? Just so I have context of what you need help with :p

??

Ah, that's an odd translation. You'll have to wait for Chapter 2 for the followup, so I wouldn't worry about it too much for now.

oh thank you

heres an idea since theres a certain villain i wont say by name or anything but im sure we could see some mind destruction to turn said villain into a mindless doll as a possible kink to add that also plays in line with the story

(+1)

;)

hey so um Im new at this platform(itch io) and I've been checking the patreon and noticed that the platform where I play this game is two updates behind, and I see itchi io seems to have the latest update, but since it is not an online gaming platform, my question is if I have to download the game again for each update or how the update system works

If that other platform had you download the game, I would suggest downloading the newest version on here or on the Patreon to catch up. Afterwards, you can download the files labeled "UPDATE PATCH" when a new update comes out, as long as you make sure to update for every patch. If you miss an update, that's fine, just redownload the full game and you won't run into any issues. Hope that helps :p

How l get to park on west?

is F95 a good alternative with the bans happening here now?

It's updated on F95 infrequently. All public downloads are posted on my Patreon and in our Discord at the same time they would be available on Itch, and those are two only other two sources I upload to myself, so I suggest checking one of those two out for future updates.

Ok but i kinda meant in general. Cause i cant keep up with 15 discord servers. 

Fair enough. My Patreon is the best spot for that, then. I know the game is uploaded onto a lot of other sites (including F95), so those may work as suitable alternatives.

(+1)

Good to know. Thank you, for the info and the game :)

Hey so i finished studing with jackie znd after that i have to kidnapp but it after the convo with pale i forgot the nape the screen goes black and i keep clicking on move forwards and nothing changes could u help me

It's a puzzle. The dialogue gives you a hint of what you need to click on to continue. It's something outside of the dialogue itself.

So I did glance through the walkthrough a little but I'm trying to avoid major spoilers by looking through it so I'm asking here. How do I accept the babysitting job? I got the offer, but see no way to actually continue with the characters. I've looked through every location, world map, kitchen, room, everywhere I could think of.

You can't actually go through with it until the second chapter (Actually, in the update coming out later today lol), so don't worry about it.

(1 edit)

When can we expect next update to drop?

For the Patreon, today. Publicly, Saturday. Keep an eye out :p

How do i contact Haley after agreeing to babysit Jackie?

This is just to comment on something I've noticed, and I don't know if people have mentioned this before or if you know or care, or who started this, but... have you noticed your game has a weirdly ridiculous number of similarities with Project COR, aka Champion of Realms?

An entity of another world encounters a 'regular' protagonist while on the search for something. Turns out that not only is that entity a childhood friend of the protag that both had forgotten due to forced amnesia, but also the protag is surprisingly a 'magic' user who also happens to have never-before-seen powerful 'magic' at their disposal that they need to learn to use. They recruit normal and 'otherworld' girls until they end up getting involved with affairs dealing with plots/plans far greater then them with the greatest/most powerful entities involved. This causes the protag to make a new central hub  home and set on the goal to recruit even more girls in the fight against this while still getting more powerful themselves.

Also, the protag's source of power happens to be related to a living entity inside of them who happens to look like a shortstack. Also the lost childhood friend has powerful parents and the second 'otherworlder' you come across is a researcher. 

These are all things I can say about both games, lol. Not saying either of you took from either, but damn. It hit me hard when I noticed it all.

(+1)(-1)

Well... many games here on Itch inspire each other. Sometimes, they do a collab like Dimension 69 and Lustful Sin. Does it matter if they have numerous similarities? Not really. By the end of the day, it's all about the presentation of each developer. In other words, it's all about how they deliver their game.

(1 edit) (+1)

In of itself, yeah I have no problems, and it's not a bad thing, I just noticed the crazy amount of same things one day when I was thinking of both games. It's only really a problem if one dev has a problem with the other, and I don't know, nor think they do.

For now, I heard nothing of the sort. I guess it's safe to assume that they're not on bad terms.

(+1)

Never spoken to them in my life :p But I respect the hell out of their work

(2 edits) (+2)

Hey! So I read this comment, and I think it honestly has some really neat discussion points, so I figured I'd talk a bit about Daybreak Nightbreak's inspirations.

To start off with, yes and no. The general mechanics and gameflow of DbNb are based off mechanics found in games like COR and CK, because they just suit the genre very well and are great for interesting narrative exploration. Hearing you comparing DbNb to COR is actually pretty cool, because I have a lot of respect for that game and I think it's really solid, so thanks! :p


That being said, it's mostly a mechanical inspiration that I've taken from those games, not a narrative one. Although, after reading your post, there are definitely similarities lol. I'll go over what you mentioned point-for-point. Lock-in, it's gonna be a lot.

"An entity of another world encounters a 'regular' protagonist while on the search for something. Turns out that not only is that entity a childhood friend of the protag that both had forgotten due to forced amnesia, but also the protag is surprisingly a 'magic' user who also happens to have never-before-seen powerful 'magic' at their disposal that they need to learn to use."

- I don't even remember who this is in the context of COR, although I believe is Asmedia (the girl who wears green)? To be completely honest, Eisheth was originally made to be more of a character trope to help familiarize people with the basics of DbNb's world and she serves as a tutorial character, rather than being a direct parallel to anything else. Although, seeing your post does definitely show me some connections there.

"They recruit normal and 'otherworld' girls until they end up getting involved with affairs dealing with plots/plans far greater then them with the greatest/most powerful entities involved. This causes the protag to make a new central hub  home and set on the goal to recruit even more girls in the fight against this while still getting more powerful themselves."

- This is a mechanical similarity rather than a narrative one, at least in my eyes. Yes, the "girl collecting" is an intentional similarity between the two, as I think recruiting is just a naturally fun thing to do in games. And considering the nature of DbNb, it would naturally be people from both worlds to help broaden the scope of how the world works. I personally see this as more of a common RPG game mechanic (think recruitment in Fire Emblem games), of course with a naughty twist in both games. And I believe that both games handle the system differently, although I haven't touched any games like COR or CK in years specifically to avoid diluting my idea pool and to keep my ideas original.


"Also, the protag's source of power happens to be related to a living entity inside of them who happens to look like a shortstack."

- I'm gonna be straight with you, the inspiration for Echo came from Midna from Twilight Princess. She was original going to be more sassy like her inspiration, but late before the first public release, I decided to pivot her more towards being unaware of why and how she exists. She serves the narrative primarily to learn more about what crests are and how they came to be (which will be coming up next in terms of the next few updates). I don't think the COR shortstack character existed when I last played, but it's cool that we had similar ideas! I know many games with direct "companion characters" tend to have it be someone small (think of fairies, pixie, etc), so it's likely we both came to similar conclusion independently. Although, again, very cool because I think it's a great idea!

"Also the lost childhood friend has powerful parents and the second 'otherworlder' you come across is a researcher."

- This is just narrative convenience, although your analysis is somewhat off. You meet Eisheth, Tsumi, AND Naamah before meeting Azalia. But she does come early into the plot primarily to serve as a knowledge-base for the player. If anything, it's just purely coincidental because I really don't remember much from Asmedia (again, I don't even remember if that's her name lol it's been years).

Either way, I think it's awesome to be compared to such well-known games! I appreciate that the narrative I've been writing for almost 3 years now makes you think of such a solid game, because being compared to quality just motivates me to do even better! Thanks for the analysis, it gave me something to talk about :P

I'm missing the last scene for Sarah but it won't show me it's locked until the 2nd chapter, is there something I'm missing?

Nope. You unlock it in Chapter 2. I know that was a bug on a previous version, but I believe I already patched it? Which version are you playing on

I'm playing on version 11.0

Weird. I'll double check it on my end and see what the issue is for the next update.

your game crashed when i tried to take the float thing and i didnt save and lost alot of progress

What's the float thing? If there's a major crash issue, I've gotta look into it

its where you are offered the drugs by the couple at the park and if you try them your game crashe

I'll take a look into it, thanks!
