About the Game
The Break-In is a 4 player online co-op burglary game about sneaking into houses, stores, and casino vaults to steal everything that isn't bolted down. (And maybe some of the things which are bolted down)
If you can get it into your van, you can sell it for a profit. And you can use the money you make to purchase new thief equipment, to help you take on riskier heists
Special Thief Equipment
Use a wide range of equipment to help you to extract the most valuable items from your target. Ladders and climbing picks can help you get in, then use attachable items like airbags and pistons to safely get your stolen items to your van
⠀
Other items like hammers, firecrackers, and wearable head lampshades can help you deal with any residents, either by knocking them out, distracting them, or hiding from them.
Natural climbing system
The climbing freedom gives you full freedom to get around. Clamber up drainpipes, crawl through windows, or even stealthily make your way to the roof to scout the area
Just be careful to make sure that nobody is waiting for you on the other side of the window, it's a long way down and you didn't bring a trampoline. Or maybe you did, and this is all part of your plan?
Classes and Perks
There are 3 classes to choose from. will you be the sneaky, speedy Infiltrator, breaking in and opening up the target for your team?
Or the beefy Strongman, dragging the valuable heavy items to your van, and protecting your teammates from guards?
Or maybe you're the Mastermind, co-ordinating everything in secret and hacking the vault?
VR / non-VR crossplay
VR adds an extra layer of immersion, but you can play fully without it too! Cross-play allows you to play alongside VR players, even in non-VR mode
The keyboard and mouse controls are designed to give non VR players the same level of control as VR players
Randomised level generation
Every mission you enter has randomised room varieties including different points of entry, so you'll have to make a new plan for each place you infiltrate
NPCs are also randomised, so make sure you scout the area well before going in. You never know what might be guarding that jewelry, an angry resident, a trained guard, or a hidden camera?
Don't forget to join the official discord server! Ask questions, chat to the developer, and make suggestions for what you'd like to see in the game.

This is a patch to the previous patch, to fix some of the issues with the new VR character system. Climbing should now be more robust and less likely to break in weird ways, and a potential height change bug has been fixed.
Thank you for your patience with the changes despite the new bugs. The old system was quite outdated and lacking some features like leaning and proper animations, so it needed to be updated.

A new patch is live, which adds Steam Cloud saving support on PC, as well as some changes to the VR character system which should make things less janky.
There are now proper movement animations for VR players' legs, and VR players can lean over objects in-game to better reach things. I am also experimenting with the IK system to make the toolbelt easier to see, so let me know if you like how it works in the current build.
Climbing axes are now also easier to attach to walls, and I have fixed some previously un-stabbable walls and areas. Below is the full list of bugfixes.

A new patch has been released to address some of the annoying bugs and balance issues highlighted by players over the Christmas period.
Many new players found it difficult to progress, especially without stealing big ticket items like cars and residents. To reduce the grind, driver cuts have been reduced, with additional reductions when playing in multiplayer. There is also now a significantly increased bonus for stealing lots of items (10+), which increases exponentially and is capped at $35k per mission.
I will be working on more bugfixes over the coming weeks, before starting work on Update 3. If you have any suggestions for the game, I’m active in the discord server linked below so post them there!
