Hey!

We would like to inform you that we are fully aware of the frequent game crashes that have occurred since the SteamVR 2.0 update. The title, which was previously running smoothly, experienced unexpected issues that took us by surprise. We think we've found a solution that will stop crashes from happening anymore. Our QA Team checked the title with new patch 1.4.0.6 and currently Thief Simulator VR no longer crashes on our specs. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we eagerly await your opinions on the current stability of the game. Thank you for your patience.

Hey!

First, we'd like to thank you for supporting Gameboom VR! Our Cooking Simulator VR sells great, we've won the VR Game of the Year award on Steam, and now we can work on some new games for you. However, this does not mean that we are forgetting about our first game - Thief Simulator VR!

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!
