Latest Steam announcements

  • Thank You for Believing in Us - 23 May 2026

    For those who supported Lazer Z, we want to express our genuine gratitude. When we launched into Early Access back in December 2019, we were excited about the potential of the project and the direction the genre was heading. Over the following six months, we pushed updates, refined mechanics, and worked hard to build something fun and energetic. Your enthusiasm and encouragement during that time meant more to us than you may realise.Unfortunately, life had other plans. A combination of family illness, the global impact of COVID, and further personal challenges meant we simply couldn’t dedicate the time and focus Lazer Z deserved. In the years since, the VR landscape has evolved rapidly, and other titles have expanded on ideas similar to ours in ways that raised the bar for the genre. While Lazer Z still holds a special place in our hearts, we recognise that its moment has passed.Today,…

  • Atmospheric Update Now Available - 22 June 2020

    G'Day from the Land Downunder, We are super excited to bring you the Atmospheric Update for Laser Z. It's taken a few weeks longer to complete, but we are pumped with the results. Early versions of Laser Z used a very low poly neon retro look to ensure performance didn't suffer. As we progressed on the Early Access journey we made several significant changes to the underlying game calculations to improve performance. This allowed us to focus more on the look and feel of the game and to create worlds and levels that are more engaging and immersive. We are now hard at work on the next update which will feature: New World 7 in World mode with 10 new levels. Introduction of the new Boss - Orange Boss! A new survival mode featuring only Bosses! Updates in this release: Completely new look and feel for World Game, Survival Mode and Defender Mode Previous Gunslinger Mode and Party Mode merged…

  • Atmospheric Update Coming Soon - 5 May 2020

    Howdy All, IT's been a little bit since our last update and we wanted to let y'all know about the upcoming Atmospheric Update for Laser Z. Our intention had been to release the latest world - World 7 - in World Progression mode. While this is still in development, we've accelerated our plans around the vibe of the game. Up until now we've been using an 80's retro look for early testing to allow us to develop enough the of the level engine to have a good read on performance. We are pretty happy with performance and now have the headroom to increase and improve the visual effects and imagery of the game. We don't have a firm release date yet but we are targeting the next 3-4 weeks for the release. In the mean time we'd like to share some screen shots of the new visuals.

  • Laser Z 0.1.6 Released - 21 March 2020

    Calling all Streamers, YouTubers and Content Creators, we are really, really exited to announce full LIV Mixed Reality Support. Set up your camera, load up Laser Z and let the good times roll. We've had a blast adding LIV support and have got carried away recording ourselves to see who can finish a level looking the coolest. Look for some our play videos to be uploaded shortly and we can't wait to see what you can do. A huge shoutout to Dr Doom and the LIV team for a great product and fantastic support. We are currently working on World 7 and excited about the new challenges it brings. We are targeting a mid April release.

  • Laser Z 0.1.5 Released - 8 March 2020

    It's been a little while since our last update but finally we are ready with World 6 - Ring of Fire. This world contains some of our most creative and challenging levels requiring us to spend extra time to get them right. This update brings the total number of levels in World Mode to 58. Updates in this release: World 6 with 10 all new levels Introduction of the first Power Down - Instant Death A new boss - Green Boss - to battle with New music for World 4 Defender Mode has been tweaked to make it more challenging and fun! Bug fixes in this release: The freezing between screen transitions has been fixed.

  • Laser Z 0.1.4 Released - 5 January 2020

    We just can't help ourselves, it's a new game mode, so Welcome to the Dome. We are still working on World 6 and some scene transition issues, but in the mean time step into the Dome where cubes will come from different angles requiring you to be quick of hand and fleet of foot. In new Defender Mode, Ejector ports on the side of the dome will shoot cubes at you. You will need to defend yourself as the cubes will be shot in your general direction. As the levels increase, you will be faced with additional Ejector ports as well as the cubes getting faster and faster. Getting hit by a cube - game over. Miss a cube - game over. Grab your laser rods and prepare to stand your ground. Defender Mode also features a new 80's style soundtrack so pump up the bass! Let us know in the comments what you think of the new game mode and what we can do to improve it.

  • Laser Z 0.1.3 Update - Happy New Year - 31 December 2019

    Just in time for the New Year, Laser Z 0.1.3 adds a whole new world - World 5 - to World Mode. Introducing new cubes types - fading and disappearing - to the existing stable of stop and go cubes, cubes from four directions and Power Ups, World 5 steps up the challenge level. Progress through 10 levels to see if you've got what it takes to beat World 5. We have stepped up the difficulty on this world so your feedback as always is really important. We are currently working on the following for the next update: World 6 - introduces the concept of the Power Down - these levels will make you sweat Improving transition between scenes to reduce the freezing effect. We are still early in the Early Access path (pardon the pun :-) ) and your feedback on shaping the direction and content of Laser Z is really appreciated.

  • Laser Z now available in Early Access - 13 December 2019

    We are excited to announce the availability of Laser Z in Early Access. Channeling the nostalgia of the 80's with it's gameplay and visuals (not to mention really cool original soundtrack), it's easy to learn but challenging to master. We are excited for you to play the game and are really looking forward to your feedback. New Worlds and Levels are currently under development as well as new Challenge Mode. Work is also underway on a Level Editor for you to build, play and share your own levels.

About this game

Thank You For those who supported Lazer Z , we want to express our genuine gratitude. When we launched into Early Access back in December 2019, we were excited about the potential of the project and the direction the genre was heading. Over the following six months, we pushed updates, refined mechanics, and worked hard to build something fun and energetic. Your enthusiasm and encouragement during that time meant more to us than you may realise. Unfortunately, life had other plans. A combination of family illness, the global impact of COVID, and further personal challenges meant we simply couldn’t dedicate the time and focus Lazer Z deserved. In the years since, the VR landscape has evolved rapidly, and other titles have expanded on ideas similar to ours in ways that raised the bar for the genre. While Lazer Z still holds a special place in our hearts, we recognise that its moment has passed. Today, our energy is fully behind Experiment 912 , a VR‑only title built on a unique premise that we believe brings something fresh to the medium. This project represents everything we’ve learned — creatively, technically, and personally — and we’re excited to share more as development continues. Experiment 912 is our chance to deliver an experience that stands apart, and we’re committed to making it something truly memorable. As a sincere thank‑you to everyone who supported Lazer Z, we will be providing free Experiment 912 keys to all existing Lazer Z owners when the game launches on Steam. Your early belief in us helped make this new chapter possible, and we want to honour that support in a meaningful way. We look forward to showing you what we’ve been building and welcoming you into the world of Experiment 912. About the Game Fire up your laser, destroy the cubes, duck , weave , and stay alive . Step in to an 80's inspired Vaporwave world and prepare to do battle. Part rhythm game, part strategy, part arcade, totally awesome. Featuring an original Synthwave inspired soundtrack, Laser Z will challenge your reflexes and stamina while requiring you to think strategically. Using the full 360 play space balance speed with energy management to survive. In World Mode, progr…

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $5.99
  • Highest observed: $5.99

Laser Z's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $5.99, the highest is $5.99, and the first visible tracked price is $5.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Laser Z's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $5.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $5.99. The latest run records $5.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $5.99
  • Current list price: $5.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Laser Z at $5.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
