Given the day, we should clarify this is not an April Fool's story.
Neat Corp announced on BlueSky today that it has permanently reduced the cost of several of its games on select platforms.
The original stealth thrillers Budget Cuts and Budget Cuts 2: Mission Insolvency are both $14.99, half of their original $29.99 price point. 2023's Budget Cuts Ultimate, a combination of both games with updated mechanics, was lowered from $29.99 to $19.99. Cozy gardening sim Garden of the Sea drops to $9.99 for both VR and flatscreen on Steam.
Neat Corp's latest title, Norse roguelite Crossings, remains at its launch price of $9.99.

It should be noted these price changes currently only apply on the Steam and Meta platforms, including the Rift Store versions for Budget Cuts 1 and 2.
Budget Cuts 1 is available on the original PlayStation VR and Budget Cuts Ultimate has a PS VR2 port. Garden of the Sea is also available on Pico, PS VR2, and Nintendo Switch. At the time of this article, all of those platforms show the original price for each game.
Doug North Cook from Creature, who works with Neat Corp on marketing, confirmed that the PlayStation VR prices will also be lowered soon.
