- v2.6 is here! I built a bridge! - 23 May 2026
Hallo! GamedevKarubin here! Some small fixes and one bridge built!Bridge built near JaguarI've come to realise too many players completely ignore the bottom left part of the map because it's a dead end. I thought of building a bridge there a long time ago, but I thought it might ruin the vibes and surely it wouldn't be that much of a bother, right?Well, I was wrong. Anyway, a kind feedback from Roz_Arai prompted me to get off my butt and do it. So, I did. Now there's a bridge there! Let me know if anything's broken!Bug FixesFixed a bug where pressing Enter occasionally rendered you unable to type until you clicked the screen or pressed enter againAdded the word Hold onto buttonsFixed some Thai font alignment problemsFixed footsteps playing on loop when exiting a dungeonAdded a button to the Pause menu to allow you to return to the Overworld instead of the only options being Return to Ti…

- v2.4 Isekat Indonesian is out! - 14 April 2026
Hi everyone! Dev Calvin Karubin here!The Indonesian version is now out on the public branch!Unfortunately, we could not upload all the languages in one go because some languages have bugs specific to their input methods, so we decided to break it up and update each language into the game once they've been given the green light!You'll see Japanese, Thai, Spanish and Vietnamese coming in the subsequent updates. Stay tuned!For now, please enjoy the newly upgraded and updated Isekat!
- The Big, Big Language Update (beta) is Here!! - 29 March 2026
Hi everyone! It's your exhausted, overworked, friendly neighbourhood game dev, Calvin Karubin!We've been silent for the past few months because... this is it! This is what we've been working on!The New Languages Update!Japanese, Spanish, Indonesian, Thai and Vietnamese language can now be selected on the Title screen!This took us a whole lifespan and a half to implement. We had thought that replacing language text files should be plug-and-play... but boy, how wrong we were. It's been a very interesting and illuminating time on how differently different languages type... and how much we'd have to revamp the whole typing system to accommodate them.The new language update is still in Beta as we go through the final rounds of proofreading. It'll be out in a few days, we reckon.You can access it through the Beta channel under the Game Properties in Steam!Other than that, here are the other u…
- v1.1.3 is out! Big performance boost! - 14 December 2025
Hi everyone! Calvin Karubin here again!I was gonna take a break, but some big, glaring issues were brought to our attention so jumping back to fix them became top priority!First, a bug where you can continue fighting even after dying. This was quite... gracefully discovered by @Bunana_ch, who defeated the final boss with a sheer display of perseverance that transcended death. Thanks, Bunana!Secondly, an issue where playing Isekat made several Vtuber avatars bug out or lower-end computers struggle. We weren't sure what the cause was, but a kind player, @Duttfisch, alerted us in Steam discussions that Isekat was running at 500 FPS. Isekat! We don't need you to run THAT smoothly!That's probably a big reason why it lagged out other software. We capped the FPS to 60 for now. It runs A LOT better.We will put an FPS toggle and Vsync option in the Options in due time. For now, this is a quick f…
- We've updated the demo! It's back up! - 10 December 2025

- v1.1.2 is out! Practice Mode Achievement fixed! - 9 December 2025
Hi everyone! Calvin Karubin here!We got some feedback that the Practice Mode achievement, Becoming the Lv999 Villager, was too hard. Not only that, but it also... didn't trigger once somebody actually reached it. Terrible!I looked into it and fixed it, and I've brought the criteria down from 70 to 60. Hope more of you can get it now and get the 100% clear!The DemoAlmost done! Just a bit of clean up and it'll be up soon!Bug FixesAchievement: Becoming the Lv999 Villager (get 70 points in Practice Mode) didn't trigger. Fixed that. Also lowered the scoring criteria from 70 to 60.Lappy used to ignore exclamation mark inputs. The audacity, after telling you to say, "We're back!!!!!!!" Well, fixed that.After beating the game, Villagers don't reset to gift Catnip. Fixed that.Changed the Infinite Catnip cheat (onlineshopping) to a toggle. Enjoy!Some Caves and Castle maps have inconsistent speeds…
- v1.1.1 is out! Fixed a rare occurring dialogue progress bug! - 6 December 2025
Hi guys~! Calvin Karubin here! Man, we're practically pushing out updates every day, aren't we? Sorry for all of the downloading and updating I'm making you guys do. We're trying to fix any bugs we spot AS SOON AS POSSIBLE from the moment we spot them so that no one else has to encounter them ever again.Thank you to everyone who has been playing and streaming the game!! We've been popping into as many streams as possible, whenever we can. This is how we've been catching any remaining stray bugs or behavioural quirks whenever they pop up. This particular one was quite interesting, because it didn't seem to always happen, but it came up in @LofiLady's stream! It didn't seem to always trigger, but... we shouldn't risk it. We fixed it and patched it up.In other news, we're patching up the demo. We should be able to reupload it around tomorrow or so. We're aiming to make it a demo where you…
- v1.1.0 is out! - 4 December 2025
Hi Cats! Calvin Karubin here! I didn't make a v1.0.9 update post here because it had just been the day and I didn't want to spam, but I might as well bundle it into this update!The Demo (repeat for those who haven't seen)I'm taking the demo down for a bit because it was made months ago and runs on some pretty ancient code. I get worried every time someone recommends others to try the demo now because it doesn't really portray an accurate experience of current Isekat.Some streamers mentioned that the best demos allow you to carry over save data to the main game and... it sounds like a pretty good idea to us. We're going to update it and put it back up! Please give a little time!Bug Fixes and BalancesChests at the end of completed dungeons now have a 1/3 chance to give 3.000 Catnip!Realised from watching the streams thus far that the price of buildings was too inaccessible. My bad guys, I…
