1.5.1 : Raid Mode updates, a contest, and hella bug fixes
Also some new trees
State of Raid Score Attack
The State of Raid event in Raid Mode, which appears every time the threat meter caps and you advance a threat level, now has score attack elements. You get a 20% bonus for all points earned while State of Raid is active, and kills extend the duration. This is to encourage you to go fight things rather than run hiding from grenades for 30 rounds.
Controller / Steam Deck Improvements
Lots of places that were buggy or felt squishy with the controller have been improved, not done yet, but:
Character creation easier to navigate with gamepad
Cursor shouldn't be so tiny on the stream deck.
Cursor should also get stuck on bad guys much less often. Like, ideally never.
Look at that pretty waterfall on the beach mission.
that is an order
Raid Mode Contest
At noon pacific on 7 August 2026, I'll be resetting the Raid Mode leaderboards. High score there at 6pm on Sunday 9 August is going to win a grand opportunity. Really, well, ok uh, yeah -- if you have the high score, I will reach out to you and if you wanna help design an item, or other piece of Eye of the Commando gameplay, let's talk. Hippie Jesus won last time, and that's why the game has Pecs of Steel!
Lede buried here:
I also added some achievements. The first of many. Now you know, because you read this far in the update notes.
