Tabletop Simulator Newsletter - June 2016 View this email in your browser Welcome to another month of excitement and board gaming! Happy Summer! The warm months are upon us, so try to stay cool out there! If you'd like to keep track of our community posts, then follow us on Facebook and Twitter! Tabletop Simulator and all the DLCs (other than Simurgh, since it just released) are on sale during the Steam Summer Sale! This is one of Steam's biggest sales of the year, so if you have been waiting or know people who have been wanting to get Tabletop Simulator, now is your chance! Tabletop Simulator is 50% off and the DLCs vary from 30-50% off. The sale ends on Monday, July 4th at 10am PST, so act now before it's too late! VR NEWS June has mostly focused on VR - those of you who don't have VR, thanks for your patience while we get the kinks out. Future updates will focus on a mix of stuff both VR and non-VR related. VR is currently in beta and we are thrilled with how far it's come in just a month. If you've been playing around with it, let us know what you think and of course any suggestions you may have as well. You can post them on our forums here. If you haven't seen it yet, check out our latest VR Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuUhWPUDpGo We're very excited to bring Tabletop Simulator into the virtual world and we're looking forward to your input. Have fun! DLC NEWS We're happy to be bringing The Captain is Dead by The Game Crafter into Tabletop Simulator! The Captain is Dead is a co-op game for 2 to 7 players. All you have to do is get the ship's engines (aka "Jump Core") back online and you win; but because there is a hostile alien ship trying to destroy you, that is easier said than done. Our latest DLC, Simurgh by NSKN Games is now released! This is our second game from them after Mistfall. Simurgh is a game for 2-5 players who become heads of powerful clans in a fantastical world where humans and dragons live, hunt and go to wars together. Now available for $6.99. Only the host needs to own all our DLCs. Stay tuned for more DLC announcements and updates in future issues of The Scoop, posted on our website, Facebook and Twitter . We have some other great companies we have partnered with that we will announce soon! MONTH IN REVIEW   June was the release of VR in alpha (and now beta) and it's been a fun and surprisingly smooth ride! In Update v7.4, we released the DLC Zombicide by Cool Mini or Not and it's been a lot of fun playing it in VR and in normal mode. Not only is it fantastically themed, but it has a cool Gizmo-Tron which gives you a variety of layouts that is placed over your mission boards to make game set ups much faster. We also updated our Superfight DLC so that it was properly themed, so now all of our DLCs (and all going forward) will be specially themed to match the game. We're very proud with our DLCs and how fantastic and high quality they are - and we hope you like them too! Update 7.5 brought improvements to VR by adding a Transform Gizmo which allows you to do things like rotate and lift the floor up and down, scale the player up and down and much more. And in Update 7.6, we added more functionality to VR like bringing in the tools menu, made it so VR heads and hands are transparent to non VR players so they aren't so intrusive, added sharper image quality and updated the tutorial for the VR and controller use. We also added UI Scaling, so everyone can scale up or down their UI as they'd like. COMMUNITY ORIGINAL GAME  Check out Dead Man's Doubloons created by Geek Fever Games on our Steam Workshop!
