- Update v1.2.3 — "Food is served, sit down and eat, please..." - 20 July 2026
What's new:New items have been added to the game — dishes from post-Soviet cuisine are now available. They have expanded the overall assortment and can be used in relevant in-game situations.Tooltips for changing textures on stickers, posters, and curtains have also been added. Some players didn't immediately find this option, so explanations are now placed directly in the interface — making customization management more intuitive and eliminating unnecessary searching.
- Patch 1.2.2: Bugfixes & Interactivity - 26 November 2025
Fixed a bug that allowed the player to fly through the ceiling.Added the ability to step out onto the balcony "to get some fresh air" on all levels that have one.A notification now appears when a screenshot is taken.
- Patch 1.2.1 - bug fixes, improvements, and interactivity - 25 November 2025
Hello everyone 👋 Patch 1.2.1A lot of work has been done on the collisions of all interactive objects. Previously, there was an issue where cabinets and other items could be opened from a distance without getting close. Now all interactive elements can only be opened when you’re nearby.A visual script has also been added for all interactive objects — it’s now easy to understand what you can interact with.Additional changes:Fixed an issue where some items would reappear after re-entering the level.Adjusted the size of the toilet.The catalog scroll speed has been reduced again (the fast scrolling caused incorrect items to be selected).A notification now appears when saving.I’ve also started gradually adding various life events. In this update, you can smoke on the balcony on the first map and enjoy the beautiful views. This will be added to all maps soon.
- Update 1.2.0 — "What's it like outside?" - 24 November 2025
What's new: Window views on all maps with balconies. No more staring into the void. During a renovation, you can now look outside through the balcony. Added unique panoramas for each location to make the game world feel more alive and atmospheric.Also:Fixed a minor bug with a wall (it was non-interactable) on the "Room" map.Improved catalog scrolling speed.Henceforth, each map has its own fixed time of day and weather type. The dynamic day-night cycle has been removed.
- Patch 1.1.0 — Weather + Balcony + Window View - 19 May 2025
Hello! How are you all doing, folks? I’ve added dynamic day-night cycles, as well as a balcony and a view outside the window. With optimization complexity... well, blame Lumen for that—it’s not my fault! Point your fingers at it and Unreal Engine 5! If you turn off that darn Lumen, the graphics will become very simple, even on Ultra settings. I’ve fixed minor bugs, like toggling the room light with a single click—previously, it didn’t turn on/off right away. I’ve also added a test balcony... aaaand... weather! Day and night will now cycle every 10 minutes of real time. Right now, I’m thinking about adding the stairwell and how to exit there, followed by the street. I’ll be keeping an eye on your feedback—for now, this is only available on one map (KHRUSHCHEVKA). Alright, I’ve typed too much already. If you have any questions, feel free to join the Discord—I’ll respond quickly there. Hav…

- A small addition to patch 1.0.7 - 1 March 2025
Hello everyone! 👋 I’m on a short break, but I couldn't resist fixing a few small bugs: The bathtub changed location after saving and loading (fixed). Desk photo frames were not saved in the game (fixed). The jewelry box was not saved in the game (fixed). Baseboard collision removed (this was preventing cabinets from fitting snugly against the wall). Fixed chair collision (now it fits snugly against the wall). Added "changed" text to curtain names (their colors can also be edited, just like posters and stickers). Envelope got stuck in textures (fixed). Removed planning wall (I was testing layout and forgot to remove it) (fixed).
- 🎉 Patch 1.0.7 — Game Save + Collision - 28 February 2025
Hello everyone! :3 Here's another patch 👩🔧, and this time it's all about SAVING all in-game items! (Save by pressing - "H") 💾SAVING I've been working hard these past few days on the game's save system and achieved some results. Now you can save all objects in the game without any losses, except for wallpapers and linoleums (I think this will be fixed very soon). Save - H ✅ COLLISION As requested, I've made it so that large objects (like cabinets, refrigerators, etc.) no longer clip through walls. (See GIF below) ✅ SNAPPING TO WALLS If you want to place an object right next to a wall, simply bring it close to the surface — it will automatically align itself. (See GIF below) ✅ + Fixed a bug where boxes were falling through textures in the garage section. Have a great weekend, everyone! 🤗
- Patch 1.0.6 — Scroll Speed Changes + New Decor + Wallpapers - 24 February 2025
ːsteamhappyː Hello everyone! Today's small update: Changed the scrolling speed for items (slider). It's now more convenient to scroll through the entire list. Added new decor items straight from the USSR and the 2000s (Decor). You can now add and change the placement of power outlets (outlets are in the "Small Appliances" category). Added 14 new wallpapers. Optimized some objects. Fixed the collision box for the Dressing Table. ːsteamthisː Wishing everyone a productive week!
- ✨ Patch 1.0.5 - Object Interaction - 21 February 2025
Hi everyone! 🙂 I've been working on interactivity over the past few days and added interactions with all cabinets and dressers. I also added the ability to interact with the following objects: "DNEPR" refrigerator Stove Washing machine Safe Guitar Piano How it works: You need to approach the object from the front and press E (this is how the interaction works - the object's collision is set up this way - see the image below). ❗❗Caution! A collision conflict may occur if, for example, you place an object in this manner.
- Patch 1.0.4 - Light On/Off + Bug Fixes + Music - 19 February 2025

- Patch 1.0.3 — Saving + New Items - 18 February 2025
Hello, dear friends! 🙂 I’ve implemented partial saving and loading of objects. There are some issues with wallpapers and linoleum. Why partial? Because objects placed on tables, for example, disappear. I think I’ll soon figure out this "little rat" 🐀, but larger objects save just fine. ːsteamthisːSaving is on - H. As requested, I’ve added the following items: Separate kitchen cabinets (now you can place them however you like) Range hood 2000s-style refrigerator 2000s-style water meter Toilet pipe and more Water pipes (you can connect them in various ways, let your imagination run wild) About turning off the lights. Guys, I’m curious to know your thoughts: do you need a complete light switch-off, or should it be like on the "Kitchen" map, where the lights just dim? You can simply turn them on/off with the T button. About Changing Images for Posters and Stickers I noticed that many peop…

- About posters and paintings - 30 January 2025
Hey guys! Many of us have probably hung various posters of our favorite games and movies in our rooms. And it was amazing and divine❤️! In the game, of course, it will be ːsteamhappyː, but! What about copyrights and licenses? I knew about this and decided to approach it this way.
