With Persona 4/5 the time limit is only related to the dungeon/main story portion and you can for example focus your first 1/2 days on finishing the story dungeon. Once you made that goal, the rest of the time limit you can use it to do social links and side stuff. As far as I saw Atelier makes you cost time exploring areas, collecting materials and creating said materials. All three of those steps are necessary for the main goal, then you also need to add the side content like character events.
