We’re not joking as we take the fact that many people have limited storage space on their devices very seriously. The 4,7 GB storage space may seem like a lot, but it actually isn’t in comparison to a movie you would download from iTunes. ‘Late Shift’ offers a total of more than 4 hours of high-quality and high-res film and there is currently no way to further compress the respective data.
Yes, you certainly can and you won’t lose your progress. Use the two-finger tap gesture to pause the movie, change subtitles settings or exit to the main menu. When you want to continue, tap the play icon the resume. The app might have to jump back a little bit in the movie to be able to retrieve your progress.

In certain cases, especially at the beginning of the experience, decisions don’t seem to have a lot of impact and you might get the feeling of being pushed back on a linear path of the story. But this is definitely not the case and there are many decision points, which change the storyline substantially. Firstly, we had to build up the plot until to a decisive moment in the story and the story tree will branch up more beyond this point. Secondly, some of your decisions are stored as variables in the background and can have an important impact later on in the story. Your decisions matter – always.
Technically it’s hard to say how many endings there really are. Depending on how you count them, you could even come to up to nine endings… Sometimes the outcome is very similar, but you might have taken a significantly different path to the ending and experienced a variation of the storyline. But we believe that at least seven endings are different enough to say that it’s a different story.
Everything is fine, nothing is wrong. In the episode overview in the main menu episodes are displayed based on a default path through the multi-optional story. As a consequence of your decisions you might have chosen a different path and thus discovered a hidden episode. Consequently, the default episode is not being displayed any more.
In one play-through of ‘Late Shift’ you will never experience all episodes, as there are parallel, exclusive episodes. You’ll have to play again and take other decisions in order to discover the “hidden” episodes.
‘Late Shift’ is only available in English but you can choose English and a lot of foreign language subtitles, which also changes the language of the buttons used for decision making. You can access the settings by tapping the respective icon in the main menu.
