- Developer update - Future - 8 September 2023
Hi, we're not gonna beat around the bush. Recent post on our social media was true and Tonda (Producer of Last Holiday) is leaving the team. But we're not dwelling on the past and focusing on the future to start a new phase of Boomer Games and Last Holiday. We firmly believe that even after a not-so-successful start, we can pull the game into the form that was intended from the beginning. This of course involves repairing the reputation and trust that has unfortunately been tarnished by our lack of communication and internal problem solving. For this and the state of the game at launch, we sincerely apologize,we did the best we could, but it was not enough. We are currently getting our act together, preparing the next steps and then we will get to work. We will communicate this process regularly as it gets underway and will strive for maximum transparency. That's all from our side for n…
- Monthly report and STEAM SUMMER SALE - 1 July 2023
Greetings to all fans of fast cars! It's here. We too have succumbed to the summer sale madness on STEAM. Currently, Last Holiday is available at a 33% discount as part of the STEAM SUMMER SALE, which runs until July 13. And it's worth it. As Slávek would say, if you don't buy during the sale, you won't save. That makes sense, doesn't it? We're working tirelessly on the game On the day of release, the game wasn't in the best condition. We acknowledge that. But we've worked hard to not disappoint our loyal fans. Since the release, we have released three major patches that fixed numerous bugs and focused on optimization. What's next? Within the next few weeks, another optimization and bug-fix patch will be released. And then? Then we'll finally start adding content to the game as promised. We already have about 7 additional missions recorded, and we'll gradually release them. Additionally…

Hello, everybody! We're nearing the release of Last Holiday in early access and have a few little things to say. Firstly, we are extremely grateful for the interest and support many of you have shown for our game. The entire team is eager to continue the development of this game and wants all of you players to experience it in its full glory when it's finished. With that said, this will be early access and since this is the first game we've ever worked on, it should be noted that it's going to be a bit of a bumpy start.

We also attach a link to a feedback form, which you can use to communicate your feelings about the game and report bugs directly to the development team.

Greetings to all those who are patient, It's been hinted and teased for a long time, however D-Day is coming and with it not only the reveal of the release date, but also the Last Holiday trailer.

- News 03 - Trailer, Release date and more soon! - 31 March 2023
Hello everyone! As we are gradually approaching Q2, you can probably expect some announcement of release date and trailer. Definitely don't worry about being left out! Everything is on track, and we'll make the announcement in true style on twitch.tv on Herdyn's channel, who invited our boys straight to the WOLE show! The schedule is going to be really packed and right in the WOLE show we'll show the full trailer, announce the release date and probably even let Herdyn play one of the missions so you'll see some real gameplay already! All this action will take place on April 6, 2023 HERE. On our social media we are now posting and introducing the different characters. Only a few characters have been shown so far and we want to show the visual style of the game, which was carefully built under the influence of Braník and Drownings (Czech treat for big boys). As a preview, we're adding Dem…
- News 02 - Work in progress - 28 February 2023
Hello everyone! The development of Last Holiday continues and we have some news to share that might be of interest to players. One of the updates we are working on is the inclusion of the V3S poop truck and the voted Felicia and Skoda 100 cars in the game. These cars have been selected by the community and will be added to the game. As we are also getting closer to release, we need to fine tune all aspects of the game beyond the basic gameplay. Over the past few weeks we have added achievements to steam that sometimes have quite interesting names and substance. Without spoilers, you can look forward to achievements such as Aquackman, HE'S TURNING!, He Who Does Not Play Does Not Live, and Point Master. Some of the achievements will require not only skill, but also a good dose of luck and time, so even collectors of these virtual awards have something to look forward to! The second new fe…
- News 01 - Early acces is comming soon! - 11 January 2023
Cheers to all the fans! As many of you may have already noticed, a closer release date for the Last Holiday Early Access has been announced! After much deliberation, the second quarter of this year, between April and June, has finally been decided. We don't want to reveal the exact date yet in case of industrial sabotage, a meteorite crashing on Europe, or contact with an alien civilization. As for the current development, we have dubbed all the characters and are gradually starting to implement the voiceovers into the game. The game as such is already taking shape, despite the fact that in recent weeks there have been a lot of sports broadcasts that have fallen victim to several bass beers.
