Hi! You've probably noticed by now that it's Halloween in Thief Simulator VR! Tenants decorated their houses, prepared sweets for children... It would be a pity if someone stole them, right? However, if the candies are to be given away anyway, you can, well... take them? Ideally at night when no one will pay attention. Certainly, there will be people on the BlackBay who will buy these completely legally seized decorations from you. Oh! I don't know if you've heard the latest rumors about the 306 abandoned house! Apparently, strange things are currently happening there. If you've visited it before - do it again. Just... be careful. Happy Halloween! Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/dERxD78 GameBoom VR

Our internal resources are limited, so… we started a new collab with a new extremely talented VR team - Cosmos Games! Today we present you… Into The Darkness - an action-adventure game built on physics mechanics game exclusively for VR! It’s a very ambitious project that aims to bring what’s the best in VR. Tbh we are a bit hyped, are you as well?

Did you see that coming?! We didn’t! But, we are extremely happy and honored that Steam Community have nominated Thief Simulator VR for the VR Game of the Year. So big THANK YOU to you from the whole Gameboom VR team! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aLYFjSmuBw&feature=youtu.be Every positive review, every advice from you pushed the development of Thief Simulator VR to the point in which it is now. Was it worth it? This is the best decision we could make. Being so close to the community that knows best what's good in the game is key to success. This nomination isn't just for GameBoom VR. It is also a nomination for all those who wrote to us what they would like to see in the game. This is a nomination for anyone who has reported even a single bug. It is thanks to this cooperation that it was possible to prepare a game that today competes with the giants of the market. Thank you very much for that! Remember, this nomination is also for you! What now? Now it's up to our community to win The Steam Awards 2020! Now you can vote for Thief Simulator VR in the VR Game of the Year category!

Hello there! We are here today with the new gameplay video for our next upcoming game - Cooking Simulator VR. If you enjoyed how we approached bringing Thief Simulator to VR, I can assure you that we are continuing with the philosophy that every detail should be reworked for VR and that you shouldn’t notice that the game is a port. We are continuously working on Cooking Simulator VR and we feel that the time has come to open up for community input. But, before we go into the details… let’s make some soup! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVTVqVEjP-Y&feature=youtu.be We are now mostly focused on polishing and bug fixing, but we also want to hear from you - what you think about the game now and what has to be added for the release. We need a bit of time to gather and implement your feedback and that’s why we plan to release the game in Q1 2021. We believe that it will be a much better product if we apply community feedback and it’s worth taking that additional effort. If you are excited (as we are!) about the game and want to try Cooking Simulator VR and help us, we have good news - we have just opened registration for Beta Phase 2. You can register using this form: Currently we plan to limit this phase of beta to 500-700 players, but you’ll get email from us regardless whether you qualified or not. If you fill the registration form expect an email around 17.12.2020 (probably in the Promotion tab, or some other weird place in Inbox) and that’s when the Beta Phase 2 is scheduled to start.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34420780/ae04143b11561f794871dce336c873aa23973c3f.png Steam Awards are always a great way to celebrate all good games that have been released this year. And, we believe that Thief Simulator VR is one of them. Thanks to your continuous support and great feedback working the whole year on the full version was a pleasure. We finally delivered what we have promised so we guess it is more than enough to be happy! We know that there have been some outstanding releases this year. But, let’s show some fighting spirit! This year we participate in the Steam Awards under VR Category, we hope to reach as high as possible in the contest. We can’t do this without your help - we count on you! We will be grateful for each vote/nomination. Let's put Thief Simulator VR as high as we can in the rank! :)

You can watch a re-stream of Thief Simulator VR full release stream once again. The game is out of Early Access and it is a great opportunity to see how we, Game Boom VR, upgraded the game in many aspects through a last year. Thanks to our community, thanks to all Thief Simulator VR players! Let's watch the stream and meet us on our Discord whenever you want: https://discord.gg/ZmKNW8Qjvr

The day has come - Thief Simulator VR is leaving Early Access and becoming the full game. We have thanked you several times already and we want to do it again. Developing Thief Simulator VR would not be so easy without the huge support of the community. Your advice and ideas on Discord have helped us a lot, making the game better and better over time. Even now, when we are working from home through a pandemic - we feel your support and the work goes smoothly. Thus, since the game's debut in the form of Early Access:

• we've made 149 minor changes to the gameplay
• we added a significantly better tutorial
• we changed the look of the inventory
• we have introduced new story quests
• players got an additional neighborhood
• changeable weather appeared
• players got the opportunity to buy a house and decorate it
• we added the "junkyard" location
• we added a new vehicle - VAN
• we have enabled a sitting game mode

Therefore, we decided to cooperate and present you a special offer - buying the Thief Simulator VR and House Flipper VR bundle you will pay less! https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/16770/ After all, the work continues, because we have more titles in production! The goal of GameBoom VR is to bring many "flat" games to VR and Thief SImulator VR was just the beginning. Work on Cooking Simulator VR is already underway, and you know we're waiting for the release of Prison Simulator. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1358140/Cooking_Simulator_VR/ Thank you, GameBoom VR team

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.

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. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34420780/a797ec6c38fd10fd3a0a9e66d8165f90efe51976.png 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. Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/dERxD78
