Just to get a bit more info, have you played any main route yet? If so, which one and how many events? Have you seen any of the café events (there are 3 so far)? And did you do any other jobs?
I had played parts of the main route, such as Mr Pig's "date", but had only worked in the cafe once before I was soft locked. As for other jobs, I had done the testing with Dr. G(?) and the hobos in Slums R up until the dungeon.
