Introduction
Relevant for 1.1.3 version and previous one.
Update [12/02/2024]: Since Devs may read my topic and change this, I won't post any other ways to get behind barriers and sincerely ask you not to do it as well.
Updated [12.08.2024] Getting behind barriers part of a guide is fully outdated, since everything is "fixed". I leave it for those, who would use older version. Again, please don't post any new routes - they will be removed from a game by Devs.

Shortcuts:
Allow to finish game faster.

Getting behind barriers (outdated):
Allows to visit Ghost Town, Mexican, Commercial, Industrial, Kunny Island and Estates levels on Monday and Zag on Monday-Wednesday.
Allows to pick up Rattler, Foam Hammer, Fournicator, M60 ammo, Hunting Rifle and Rocket Launcher on Monday and allows to get Fournicator, M60 and Rocket Launcher from reward machine on Monday as well.
Also allows to finish all Rampages and collect all dolls on Monday.
Appreciation
Big thanks to @ABRAoriginal from Discord for showing Industrial->Zag route and kicking me in right direction with Estates->Zag route as result.
Here's video I learned it from about Industrial route:

Big thanks to todd from Discord for pointing out that you can finish a day, by using End the Day button on a map, when you finished your tasks.
SHORTCUTS
6. Shotcuts (general)
* Don't miss "End of the day" button on a map, like I did. Thanks to todd from Discord for pointing it out.

* Pacifist playthrough is shorter than violent one.I recommend to check periodically stats, especially after Prison and Dam mission.

Monday
* Go to Bellow Agency to skip beggar sign errand.
* Finish Monday like this – Find a Job->Agency->Prison->Animal Catcher->Sewers->End of a day.

Tuesday
* Pay Fine is a bit shorter, if you would throw ticket into a box.
* Spike peaceful option is a bit shorter than fighting him. Also you could run to do P*ssy mission, while Spike goes back to his bowl.
* Don't forget Milk.
* Finish this way – Meet Associate->Border Smuggler->Pet Shop Delivery->Spike->P*ssy->Milk->Pay Fine->Tag Turf->press end of a day.

Wednesday
* Threat with a weapon for Petition – it's shorter.
* Shovel primary attack is faster for Mexi-Cleaner than hose.
* Finish like this – Kunny Island->Mexi-Cleaner->Bidets->press end of a day.

Thursday.
* Use teleport from Residential to Commercial level.
* Pee on queue in Voting mission and vote.
* Peaceful repetitive playthrough of VR mission is shorter. Pay for faster finish.
* Fix Race could be won by Dude and you could just run through corridors.
* Finish like this – Get Champ and GTFO->Resdential to Commercial->VR->Voting->Fix Race->Commercial level->Pit Boss->pres end of a Day.

Friday
* Teleport from Commercial to Ghost Town.
* Jump down when elevator would start to move down in Treasure Hunter mission.
* Teleport from Ghost Town to Residential.
* Finish like this – Pacify Merc->Treasure Hunter->Dam->Meet Boss->GTFO.
* Or like this - Pacify Merc->teleport to Residential from Commercial->Dam->teleport from Residentail to Ghost Town->Treasure Hunter->Meet Boss->GTFO.
(Outdated) GETTING BEHIND BARRIERS
(Outdated) 1. Police Station -> Ghost Town and most other levels (Monday)
Blocked in 1,2,0 10/NOV/2023 build. This content is available only on Monday (but won't be available only on Tuesday). Right behind Police Station itself, there is a mountain. You could climb it and get to Ghost Town. This way you'd open most of the content from Monday: Ghost Town, Mexican, Commercial, Estates, Industrial and Kunny Island levels would be all accessible.
To go back to Monday levels you need to do simple thing - get arrested. Officers could be found on any level apart from Ghost Town (Old Edensin), Industrial level and Kunny Island. You would be teleported back to Police Station. Just don't forget to take back your stuff in Evidence and High Evidence rooms (last one require to hack 1 of the terminals on 1st or 2nd floors behind red doors). The only downside of this method is that you may lose 3 of your weapons (P350, Revolver and M16) and Health Pipes. Alternatively, instead of being arrested and losing some weapons/items, I recommend to check 3 next cases (Estates->Zag or Industrial->Zag and Residential->Zag exit) and exit these levels via Zag and then exit Zag via Residential level. In that case you would save everything.
(Outdated) 2. Estates->Zag (Monday, Wednesday) (alternative)
Blocked in 1.2.0 10/NOV/2023 build. While, this being alternative route, I want to mention it first, since it allows to go from Ghost Town and other levels back to Monday levels without being arrested. To exit Zag, check "4. Residential->Zag" exit case. This one is a bit shorter (in terrms of mountain route) and more simple, but a bit more risky in the end, compared to Industrial->Zag, but I would post both, since without last one I may not guess this one. Big thanks to ABRAoriginal for kicking me in right direction with Industrial route, which allowed me to guess this one. I recommend to save first. Route starts near 2 houses and road to Zag and wall, which goes near this road. Go into mountain and follow path on screenshots. When you finish you way and touch invisible wall you could go near it to the right side and slide down in area on screenshot (good marker bush near rock/invisible wall - go through it; bad marker - "(X)" marked area, since you could slide and stuck or fall into a river).
(Outdated) 3. Industrial -> Zag (Monday, Wednesday) (alternative)
Blocked in 1.2.0 10/NOV/2023 buiild. While, this being alternative route, I want to mention it earlier, since it allows to go from Ghost Town and other levels back to Monday levels without being arrested. To exit Zag, check "4. Residential->Zag" exit case. This one is a bit longer (in terms of mountain route), but a bit safer. First of all - I recommend to save as usual. Go to Industrial level near Estates level zap zone transition. Follow route on screenshots and jump on 8th pic rock. Then either jump to next rock on 9th pic, either go down and move forward, until you would see same thing as on 10th pic. Big thanks to @ABRAoriginal from Discord for sharing this route.
(Oudated) 4. Residential -> Zag (Monday-Wednesday)
Blocked in 1.4.0. 09/AUG/2024 build. It's harder to get to Zag level and there are stuck zones on your way, but unlike getting to other levels, it's always accessible and you don't need to be arrested and as result won't lose any weapons/items. 1st I recommend to save. Then you need to go to Fire Station area in the mountains. Then follow a route on screenshots, until you find Krotchy statue. Go between Krotchy legs and you are basically in Zag. Just be careful not to go any way from this route, because there are a lof of stuck zones there.
To go back use mountains again, follow a route, until you reach Krotchy. Go between legs and you are back to Residential. Again, try to stick to a route and save first. This route would also help to get out of main part of levels, which you enter via Police Station level and after entering Zag from Estates or Industrial levels. Alternatively, just get arrested (see Police Station -> Ghost Town), but don't forget that you may lose some items.
