To the Vision Runner Community,
Vision Runner has been a journey over a decade in the making. I started development on this project back in 2013 on IndieDB and released it here on Steam in 2016. At the time, I was just 18 years old and still in high school. This game was my introduction to the world of development, born out of passion and a desire to create.
A Long Overdue Transition
As many of you are aware, the last major update for Vision Runner was released in 2018. After graduating, the realities of "real life" hit — balancing a career and personal responsibilities meant I no longer had the time or resources to bring the game to the state it deserved. For a long time, I feared that my journey in game development had come to a quiet end.
However, last year, everything changed. I found my love and time for game development again. This renewed passion led me to team up with some close friends to start a professional studio together. We are now working on our first major title: Runes & Revenue
The Future of Vision Runner
Because I am now dedicated to this new studio and project, I have had to make the difficult decision to officially retire Vision Runner. I want to be honest with the community that supported me: I can no longer maintain the development or the server infrastructure for this project.
Store Status: Vision Runner will be removed from the Steam Store shortly.
Servers: Online features will be decommissioned on 30.01.2026.
Your Library: The game will remain in your Steam Library, i try to make an update to remove the online components. But unfortunately, I can't promise it.
A Gift for My Original Supporters
I haven't forgotten the people who were there at the very beginning. To thank you for sticking with me through the years and the long silence, as a thank you, I am gifting a copy of our new game, "Runes & Revenue," to everyone who purchased Vision Runner on Steam.
Since we cannot grant these copies automatically, we’ve created a verification form:

Thank you for being part of my journey since 2013. I’m older now, I’ve matured as both a person and a developer and I can’t wait to share this new adventure with you.
With gratitude,
Cybergebi
