New Thumper Launch Options

You may have noticed Thumper now has seven (!) launch options when you run the game from the Steam client. Here's a quick explanation.

The first three are compatible with Windows 7/8/10 and let you run the game regularly or in VR modes:

  1. Play Thumper
  2. Launch Thumper in Steam VR Mode
  3. Launch Thumper in Oculus VR Mode


The next three only work with Windows 10. Everything is exactly the same, but the game has better support for Xbox One Controller vibration when run this way.

  1. Play Thumper (Win 10 only)
  2. Launch Thumper in Steam VR Mode (Win 10 only)
  3. Launch Thumper in Oculus VR Mode (Win 10 only)


The final launch option is the same old legacy DX9 mode (2D only, no VR):
