  • Vanguard V updates - 11 December 2017

    Its been a crazy couple of months at ZeroTransform. We've been crunching on a number of things to keep the lights on and to keep production moving forward. Priorities have been all over the map due to this. That said, I have some exciting news that I can't wait to share once its ready.

  • ZeroTransform has moved! / Strange text / Coming to Apple! - 18 September 2017

    First, I want to apologize for the long silence. Our studio just moved and we're still setting things up. Our new location is located in the heart of Oregon. Like our previous location, the studio resides in a house instead of an office space. We call this VR Dev House 2.0. We'll post pictures once things are operational again. Also, you may have noticed some odd text at the bottom of the game. This is due to dropbox changing their public folder policy. We are making an update to address the issue. Lastly, Vanguard V will be available on Mac OS soon. The new OS now supports Steam VR and external video cards via thunderbolt. Expect an update in the near future.

  • New Playable Level Released! - 21 July 2017

    Happy to announce that the first boss fight has been released for Steam and Oculus. The update should automatically be applied next time you login to Steam or Oculus Home. This is a big deal because this is the first time that Vanguard V has a fully sequential level option. If you beat level 1, it will take you to the boss fight, then level 2. Level 2 also features the beginnings of our weapons upgrade system. The parasites have a chance to drop items for collecting. There is the small item, large item, and shield recovery item. The shield recovery is the only object that is hooked up right now but we thought you would like to see the progress. We've also updated how the Dev Corner works. It now streams from a video source online. This allows us to make more updates without having to wait for new builds to be released. This update also features some polish in Level 1 and Level 2.

  • Adjustment to Controls and Boss 1 Update - 7 June 2017

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aOgEowc6h4 There have been a few requests to take a look at a variety of input methods. We take feedback very seriously so today I'm happy to announce the introduction to a few additions to the controls. First, independent movement of your character. You can now move your character with the touch pad to adjust her within the visible play area. Second, firing mode toggle. You can press into the VIVE touchpad to toggle between two firing modes. The default is independent aiming with vulcan shot on trigger and homing laser when trigger is held down (hold to lock targets, release to fire). The second method is directional aiming. The targeting reticle is locked to in front of the character and fires directly in front of her. You can look to auto lock / fire with the homing lasers and use the triggers to fire the vulcan. This method is very much like previous…

  • Boss 1 - Parasite cluster - 1 June 2017

    This is a behind the scenes look at the parasite cluster that takes place after level one. This is a very early look visually since all the focus begins in gameplay. This boss fight takes place in the clouds. We will use the visibility of the clouds as a gameplay element during this event. Also, Qu is on fire from re-entry so her primary weapons are offline. Good thing she makes an effective fireball.

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 25, 2026 to Sep 25, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $14.99
  • Highest observed: $14.99

Vanguard V'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 $14.99, the highest is $14.99, and the first visible tracked price is $14.99. 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

Vanguard V'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 $14.99, 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 $14.99. The latest run records $14.99 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: $14.99
  • Current list price: $14.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Vanguard V at $14.99 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.
