Part-Time Jobs

New article covering all part-time job types, earnings, and City Tycoon integration
Part-Time Jobs are optional side activities in Neverness to Everness that allow players to earn in-game currency and resources through various civilian occupations. These jobs simulate real-world work experiences within the city of Hethereau, offering a change of pace from combat and story missions. Part-time jobs also contribute to the City Tycoon progression system, tying economic activities into the broader city development loop.
Players can take on multiple types of part-time work, each with its own gameplay mechanics and rewards. Some jobs are quick, repeatable tasks that can be completed in a few minutes, while others involve longer-term management systems with passive income potential.
Job | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Taxi Driving | Active | Players operate as a taxi driver, picking up NPC passengers and delivering them to their requested destinations within a time limit. Earnings depend on distance traveled and speed of delivery. The driving mechanics use the same vehicle physics as the rest of the game, so players must navigate traffic and follow roads to complete fares efficiently. |
Barista Work | Active | Players work shifts at a coffee shop, taking customer orders and preparing drinks. This job involves a minigame-style interaction where players follow recipes and serve customers quickly to maximize tips and shift earnings. |
Delivery Services | Active | Package delivery missions that send the player across Hethereau to drop off items at specific addresses. Deliveries may be time-sensitive, with bonus pay for fast completion. Players can use vehicles or travel on foot depending on the delivery location. |
Shop Management | Management | Players can run their own store, managing inventory, setting prices, and running promotions to attract customers. The business simulation element requires balancing supply costs against revenue to turn a profit. |
Property Management | Passive | Players who acquire businesses or properties can earn passive income over time. Properties generate revenue without requiring active gameplay, though investing in upgrades and management decisions can increase returns. |
The taxi driving job is one of the most straightforward part-time activities. Players get behind the wheel of a taxi and receive fare requests from NPCs around the city. Each fare shows the pickup location and destination on the map. Players must drive to the pickup point, wait for the passenger to enter, then navigate to the destination.
Earnings scale with the distance of the fare and how quickly the player completes it. Bonus tips are awarded for smooth driving, while reckless behavior (running red lights, hitting obstacles, scaring the passenger) may reduce the tip. The taxi job is a good way to earn money while exploring different parts of Hethereau.
Working as a barista involves completing coffee shop shifts where customers arrive with drink orders. The gameplay involves a preparation minigame where players select ingredients, follow the recipe steps, and serve the finished drink. Speed and accuracy both factor into the earnings for each shift.
The barista job is a lighter, more casual activity compared to combat or driving missions. It provides a relaxing change of pace and a steady source of income for players who enjoy simulation-style gameplay.
Delivery missions task the player with transporting packages from one location to another within Hethereau. Each delivery has a specified pickup point and drop-off address. Some deliveries are time-sensitive with countdown timers, while others are more relaxed and simply need to reach their destination intact.
The delivery system encourages players to learn the city layout, as knowing shortcuts and efficient routes directly impacts earnings. Players can choose to drive or walk depending on the distance and accessibility of the destination.
The shop management system allows players to operate their own retail business within Hethereau. This involves purchasing inventory at wholesale prices, stocking shelves, setting retail prices, and running promotional campaigns to attract NPC customers. The business simulation requires attention to supply and demand, as overpricing drives customers away while underpricing eats into profits.
Property management extends this concept further by allowing players to invest in businesses and real estate that generate passive income. Properties earn revenue automatically over time, but players can increase returns by investing in upgrades and making strategic management decisions.
All part-time job activities contribute to the City Tycoon progression system. City Tycoon tracks the player's overall economic impact on Hethereau, rewarding players who engage with the city's commercial ecosystem. Completing part-time jobs, running businesses, and generating income all feed into City Tycoon milestones that unlock additional rewards and opportunities.
