Possible get Bright Jelly after You-Know-Who leaves for good? (Mild spoilers for early-to-mid game)

[roymaster45]

So, after Gwen temporarily leaves your ship without telling anyone where she went, I realized it wasn't possible to get Bright Jelly. When you sail to (or through) the jellyfish clouds on the map, none of the other characters give you a prompt to start the mini game, and the ship just keeps going until you reach your destination.

Now that I have her back on board, I'm wondering if I should collect as much Bright Jelly as possible before taking her to the Everdoor? Or will there be another way to do so once she's gone?

after you take her to the everdoor you can activate the minigame by interacting with her house's door when you're in the jellyfish clouds

Good to know. Thanks!

A necro, I know, but to be clear: If I want jellyfish after Gwen leaves, the only way is to interact with her house door aka I can't get jellyfish if I remove her house?

Once a spirit is gone, the only way to start their mini-game is clicking the house door, yes.
But it's also impossible to remove any Spirits' houses, even after they're gone.
The most you can do is set them in a corner somewhere if they're in the way.
Pretty sure this is intentional game design, so the player can feel nostalgic.

I guess Stanley technically 'removes' the Guest House by converting it into his own,
so you need a new Guest House for new spirits after him.
Also Beverly's first 'house' can probably be duplicated & salvaged like the regular buildings, because it's just a clock tower tracking in-game time of day, not a home.

That being said, if a departed spirit has a chair in their house, like Gwen does,
you can sit on it at night and view the constellations. Although Beverly's is too small.
And you can still collect & change outfits for yourself and the cat at Alice's house.

Allrighty. Thanks for the informative response.

You're welcome! This game is pretty forgiving, even compared to most management sims.
It's hard to make any permanent mistakes, & you can always reload an earlier auto-save.
