A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

This Week Portion of Fun Facts: You can find something on the roof of your hideout (if you can get there). You can disable laser alarms and smoke detectors by shooting at them with the pistol or using the crossbow's hacking dart. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45011603/41a53186ed021c78bdb684cdc4be0070f2d3a059.gif Window shutters can be disabled individually.

Hi everyone, I wanted to make a small update on the demo and also show some new stuff. As for the demo, the game itself is finished but we're waiting for 3 things: new banner, new trailer and translations for the game. Hopefully we will be able to release it in February. As for the full game, the development is going very good. If all goes according to plan and I don't get hit by a car, there's about 80% chance the game will release this year. The price will also be way lower than Thief Simulator 2. Time to show some new stuff. Abilities Once you reach New game +1, you will unlock ability vouc
Important notice: Crime Simulator Prologue will be changed to Crime Simulator: Playgrounds and will be changed from free to paid ($4.99). As many players still play the prologue I have to pay server costs from my own pocket. I would appreciate your understanding. Current owners will keep the game after the free-to-paid transition. If you download the game before February 28th, you will keep it for free! ---- Hi everyone, the second out of 3 maps is almost ready - I wanted to share some screenshots. It will feature a small American town with many apartments to break into, an electronic store, a
Hi everyone, today I want to showcase all sorts of items and tools which will be available for the player to buy and use how he sees fit. 1. Drone {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45011589/72ad8b64388f09578269dbeec0153e727d3dab50.png You can use the drone to scope out an area, and also install upgrades which can make it possible to, let's say, hack a security camera / panel, or make a noise which alerts NPCs. 2. Thermal vision goggles {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45011589/53d9851feb4d5b95ec103d2b6959dccac817f9d2.png These can be used to see NPCs through walls, as well as other players. 3. Blowtorch {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}
I am excited to announce that my previous game Thief Simulator 2 has officially launched on PlayStation 5! I hope you will enjoy it! Thief Simulator is now available on PlayStation 5 at the same price as for PC - $19.99: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/10010587
Like the title But seriously, there's some nice progress going on. I've made some nice minigames, trying to upgrade them from TS2, to make them less annoying and time consuming. 1. Computer, apps and radar {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45011603/115438855835671fc893e2b083a01caf255afae6.jpg When you start up your session in let's say, Neighbourhood nr 1, you will have a small container-like area where you can bring in loot and take it back home. You will receive a computer with certain apps, like Jobs, Item lists (completing them grants bonuses) etc. Also you will be able to check your stats, learned skill
Hi everyone, first of all, I want to thank everyone for participating in the prologue, reporting all bugs and feedback, as well as completing the survey. Your help is most important in the process of making this game a better, and a more fun experience. I want to announce I will be remaking Crime Simulator fully, from ground up, considering all feedback. I want to make sure the full release will be a good experience for players all around the globe. Main points I will be adressing while working on the project: We will be moving to a new, up-to-date multiplayer solution (Photon Fusion) The game
1.1: - Added new shadow quality setting - Added easy mode toggle in room settings (increases your HP by 2x) - Optimized NPC networking a bit
1.09b: - Fixed impossible timed attack mission; it spawned too many enemies
1.09 - Sneak gameplay improvements - Added motion bomb blueprint at 105 - Increased "Speedrunner" achievement time from 20 minutes to 30 - Leveling is faster slightly - Removed requirements for skills (you only need a skill point now)
