Devlog #2

Hi!

Over the past six months, Relocat has grown a lot. We’ve added many new mini-games, activities, and small details that we’d like to share with you.

Mini-games and activities

During this time, we’ve added several new things to do:

• ice skating races — take part in races on the ice and compete with other characters;

• cooking — Inki will be able to prepare different dishes;

• fishing — a calm activity for moments when you just want to slow down a little;

• a vinyl player — listen to music at home;

• records — buy vinyl records and change the background music in the apartment;

• furniture and apartment customization — buy items and gradually make your new place feel more cozy.

Inki’s apartment

We’ve also spent a lot of time working on the apartment.

At first, it’s just a temporary place to stay in a new city, but over time you’ll be able to make it feel more lived-in:

• buy furniture;

• add new items;

• change the atmosphere of the room;

• play music on the vinyl player;

• collect records;

• make the space feel a little more like your own.

We wanted to show how the feeling of home doesn’t appear all at once, but slowly — through small actions and the things Inki chooses for himself.

Story and quests

The game follows Inki’s move to a new city.

You can expect:

• homesickness;

• attempts to get used to an unfamiliar place;

• meeting the locals;

• personal stories of different characters;

• new friends;

• difficult choices;

• searching for an answer to the question of what home really means.

Game structure

The full version of Relocat will include:

• 3 chapters;

• several endings;

• main and side quests;

• mini-games and activities;

• characters with their own stories;

• choices that affect Inki’s journey.

The story will unfold gradually: from moving to a new place and trying to settle in, to more personal decisions about the future.

What’s next

Right now, we’re continuing to bring everything together into one complete experience:

• polishing quests;

• refining scenes;

• tuning mini-games;

• balancing activities;

• editing dialogues;

• adding small details to the city;

• working on the feeling of Inki’s final journey.

We want to make the story warm, a little sad, and sometimes a bit chaotic — a story about moving away, growing up, and searching for a place you can call home.

Thank you for following the development of Relocat. Steam post image
