Hey everyone!
I’m working on a free game built inside Virt-A-Mate, set in a suburban neighborhood with explorable houses, NPCs, and everyday interactions.
The idea is to make the neighborhood feel alive: characters have routines, move between places, spend time at home, and interact with the player. Alongside that, I’m building smaller activities, including a café where you can prepare and serve orders.
The current population is 14 NPCs: six main characters and eight visitors. My goal is to expand that to 20 NPCs, while keeping the experience playable and the performance manageable.
The main characters are intended to have their own personalities, voices, and interactions. I want spending time with them to feel different from simply meeting another visitor.
The project is still in development, so some features are unfinished and things will change. The game will be free.
I’d like to build a small community around it — people who enjoy the idea, suggest interesting activities and interactions, and eventually help test new builds. You don’t need any development experience to contribute.
I created discord server so I can post updates.. discord and i will post some updates in VAM discord (work_in_progress)
The video shows three parts of the current build:

The video shows three parts of the current build:
- The café minigame - preparing drinks and food, putting orders together, and serving customers.
- Changing a character’s clothing - a look at the outfit-changing feature.
- Walking around the neighborhood - a preview of the setting and how exploration feels.
