Virtual reality headsets and motion controllers do not create a reality. Short immersive experiences that can fill you with emotions during several minutes are not virtual reality, neither are casual games. VR is new universes where everybody can live, feel and socialize like in the real world. These worlds will be created by game developers, and the hardware is simply a way to get inside those new universes. An exciting future is waiting for us. We will have a chance to get to places beyond our imagination. We will be able to be whoever we want to. The technology is making the first steps, and so far there are only minority of games takes you to the new reality. But the future is close. May be it starts now.

  • Release Date - 11 July 2016

    Hello everyone, The planned release date now is July 21, so I think it's a good time to say a few world about the game. Always Higher is an experimental project on three sides (yes, I like a lists). 1. My initial goal was to make as large game as possible without using of unnatural locomotion (i.e. teleports within a space that should be available on foot). It doesn't mean teleports are bad, they have much more pros then cons. Teleports mechanics can slightly decrease immersiveness, but it is the only options for a really large VR games. Always Higher is probably the first room-scale-only game that doesn't supports standing experience. 2. Since 2012 virtual reality was about experiences. VR games use a new visual capabilities to give us emotions like fun in co-op shooters or fear in horrors. Here I try to create not an experience but a virtual world. This world have its history, conflic…

Short description

Always Higher is a single-player sci-fi adventure shooter VR game. Play as a secret agent, collect data modules, avoid enemy soldiers and escape underground facility!

About this game

Always Higher is a single-player sci-fi adventure shooter. The future semi-destroyed world is divided into hundreds of districts competing with each other. The central government is weak. As the final encounter is approaching, confrontation between the two leading groups gets fierce. The only three things you know are that you are an agent infiltrated into the enemy’s secret laboratory with the aim to steal important data, that you need to escape, and that yours is a good cause. But if it is so, why don’t you remember anything else? The game uses all VR features available today to create an experience as immersive as possible. It’s not just a shooter or a simple puzzle game. To accomplish the goal – just like in the non-virtual reality – you need to be quick, watchful and smart. Warning. The game requires SteamVR-compatible virtual reality headset with two tracked motion controllers and minimum 2x2 meter (6,6x6,6 ft) play area (however, 3x2 or more m is recommended).

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 25, 2026 to Sep 25, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $3.99
  • Highest observed: $3.99

Always Higher's USD price history spans from Sep 25, 2026 to Sep 25, 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 $3.99, the highest is $3.99, and the first visible tracked price is $3.99. 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

Always Higher'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 $3.99, from Sep 25, 2026 through Sep 25, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99. The latest run records $3.99 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: $3.99
  • Current list price: $3.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Always Higher at $3.99 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.
