'Last chance' discount before regular price
Hey!
While our work is not finished here, it’s high time to look back at our Roadmap from the beginning of the year and notice that we have delivered what we promised!
The most important thing was adding new content to the game and fixing the performance. We had to migrate to the new engine and it took us a bit more time than expected, but we believe it was worth going that way. Time for summary will come just before the full release which is getting closer and closer.
Today I would like to announce that in preparation for full release, we will be increasing the price to regular one - $20. As you probably already noticed we are in the middle of promotion with a pretty sweet price tag, so if anybody wonders whether it's the right time to check the game… We believe so :)
Thanks again for the big input into the game, GameBoom VR Team

Seated mode, climbing and a new tutorial - coming soon!
Hi there,
it's time for the news on what will come soon in new Thief Simulator VR update! Last time we've added lots of new content. While testing it, however, we worked on other things that are gonna make the world more vivid and the gameplay better.
All the things we describe below will be released soon. OK, so... what's new?
Anti motion-sickness trees
Surprising change, right? We decided to change the trees that are in the game. They worked well on previous engine, but have too much aliasing now. From now on, the gameplay should be more enjoyable for people who previously felt dizzy. Flickering of previous trees no longer occurs.
Wind
Good eye will notice something else! We added wind to the game, which makes the vegetation move. It's a small thing, but you'll see the difference in the game right away!
Seated mode
You asked - we delivered. Thief Simulator VR is now playable in seated mode. You don't have to stand to visit the homes of your dear neighbors.
Climbing
No more "click to get higher". From now on, to climb vines or climb a ladder and a gutter, you will have to behave like in real life. Of course, if in real life you climb the gutters.
Tutorial
Until now, we have used the tutorial of the PC version of the game. We worked on it, but unfortunately - many people had problems learning the basics of the game. Therefore, we have created our own tutorial. We will teach you many mechanics there and let you drive a car on the race track so that you can check if you feel dizzy. The first original mission with the tutorial is now a normal mission. Everyone can check the new tutorial in the main menu of the game. We're also thinking about adding a race track as a separate location. What do you think about it?
We hope that these changes will make the game better. In the meantime, we're back to testing and creating more things.
PS. The Cooking Simulator VR team is doing great.
