Embarking into game development for the very first time and with no existing user community waiting for our release, we were well aware that we had a tough task to be heard above all the noise of other more well financed and seasoned distributors. So we tried to do everything right, we released footage and trailers at every step of the development, we set up on social media, we reached out to the gaming community. Cue tumbleweed… https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F26240199%2F67440ef85f0c10e80a3f3936948fc1d087959313.jpg The truth is that we are at a time in history when we have never…

- V1.5.0 A Complete Game Changer - 8 January 2018
If you played SteamHammerVR prior to the 1.5.0 update then you simply have not played it at all. The game now features as its default, total free movement which can also be used alongside the historically accurate Springhorn Magnetic Attraction Rapid Transport system (S.M.A.R.T) Along with the option of blink teleporting we believe that this improvement is a complete game changer to the SteamHammerVR experience. We are also extremely proud to announce that in version 1.5.0 the game is fully tested and compatible with the amazing 3dRudder Adding free movement not only changes the dynamics of the gameplay but it also allows you now to truly examine and appreciate the level of detail in the game design...not to mention a fair few Easter eggs. This update also marks the completion of every single improvement that the community has asked from our team, we listened and we followed through on…

- The Great Movement Debate - Introducing Free Movement & 3D Rudder - 11 December 2017
We are pleased to announce that in the next update that we will be adding the option of free movement. Teleporting V Free Movement is a subject under great debate and whilst some users get very cross if they cant move freely, for others this can cause extreme nausea. Our original S.M.A.R.T movement system will still remain the principal and recommended form of locomotion in the game and as included in a recent update there is the option of 'blink teleporting' while using that system. In addition to the option for free movement we will also be adding compatibility for 3dRudder

So in Version 1.4.0 Easy means Easy, in fact, it is so easy that we are supremely confident that at least one of you can make it past Mission Four....YES!

Oh boy! Have we created a real stink with this one! Yes! The new Sewers Mission is now available for all our intrepid SteamHammerers. You will certainly need your wits about you, as well as a peg for your nose and a good sense of direction, it's a complete maze of tunnels down there! As you have probably guessed this is not just a pleasant whistle-stop tour of Victorian London's delightful sewer system, there is serious mission work to turn your talents to. Naturally there are few more of Professor Rattwurm's vile rat automatons lurking in the tunnels but by now we are confident you know how best to deal with those pesky blighters, however, be advised we heard there are a 'couple' of new enemies for you to combat in the sewers, but don't let that bug you. Oh...It is a bit gloomy down there but Dr Springhorn has equipped your exo-suit with a nifty little head torch! Of course it would be…
