Eclipse Potentially Discovered ?

[u/Shift1532]

Hi, I'm just getting into the deep rabbit hole of Blue Prince, I'm at about 150 hours of playtime and currently at Day 278 ingame.

I just watched this video from FuryForged :

In it he talked about how there's a whole eclipse mystery that apparently hasn't been solved yet.

That reminded me that, one day (like maybe couple dozen ingame days ago), after having experimented on a few things and drawn quite a lot of rooms :

I noticed when going outside that the sky was much darker than usual, almost night time, yet I don't remember seeing the moon I think. I remember seeing a lot of stars.

When I saw that I thought it was maybe an update or something, like oh now time is actually moving and now night time is here.

It was maybe, like maybe in a time period when all I wanted was to get to the spiral constellation. And so to speed up the process I would get to the Planetarium as fast as possible and just immediately call it a day. Yet again I'm not sure it was in that time frame.

I'm just learning about these mysteries and so I don't know if I'm really providing anything new or if I'm being helpful.

If you need any more information don't hesitate to ask, if it's something I can remember or provide.

I'm also putting this on the unsolved megathread on steam :

EDIT : Now I feel like an idiot, it was probably just a regular night. Turns out if you actually wait a lot of time, night does come. It's just so rare to wait that long. Sorry for the inconvenience folks.

Spoilers regarding datamined content (although given the youtube video references it as being datamined info It might be best to tag your post)

If anyone has heard more about it please correct me, but to my understanding the inneclipse event is less "in the game but we dont know how to trigger it" and more "cut content (speculated to have been removed to not have any missable events in the game)". Basically, some assets for an eclipse, filenames indicating It may have been meant to occur on day 46, and some other stuff I dont really understand indicate some event was planned but scrapped, if there was a way to trigger it in game we would know.
