We’re excited to share that inKONBINI is part of Steam Next Fest, and to celebrate, we’ve just released a brand-new demo on Steam!

If you’ve been curious about life behind the counter, now’s the perfect time to stop by, take things slow, and experience the store for yourself.

The current inKONBINI demo has been updated with:

- Various fixes and improvements for a smoother experience

- Additional language support, making the demo more accessible to more players around the world

The core experience remains the same: a quiet night shift, small everyday moments, and subtle stories that unfold at your own pace.

And while the demo focuses on polishing that experience, we’re also beginning to share a small glimpse of something coming to the full game…

Makoto will be able to change outfits 👀

It’s a feature we’re excited about and will be revealing more of soon.

Whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning to the store, we hope this updated demo feels more comfortable and welcoming.

To celebrate Steam Next Fest, we’re also running the Honki Ponki Campaign, a community-focused event inspired by konbini culture. By joining, you’ll have a chance to win a copy of the game!

👉 Full campaign details and examples can be found here: https://beep-company.com/inkonbini-community-corner/

Steam Next Fest is all about discovering games that leave an impression in small, meaningful ways.

If you’re in the mood for something cozy, reflective, and grounded in everyday life, we hope you’ll spend some time in the store with us.

Thank you for stopping by, and we hope to see you behind the counter 🧡
