Hello everyone! Sorry for the radio silence; I've been working on by far the biggest update COMPOUND has ever seen. It's very close to being ready for release!
There are far too many new additions, changes, and bug fixes to list here, but some of the highlights of the upcoming update include:
A Giant Minigun!
A reward for 100% completing everything there is to do in the game. Fans of games like Resident Evil 4 and Metal Gear Solid will be familiar with this kind of over powered fun-first post-game item.
Three Story Endings
Beat the final boss to reveal one of three endings ... not shown here to avoid spoilers, of course!
Steam Achievements
These will encourage players to step out of their comfort zone and try some of the more unusual play styles or activities COMPOUND has to offer.
Interactive Visual Tutorial System and Reload Guide
A visual guide will appear to help teach new players how to reload each weapon, without needed to read walls of text. This automatically goes away once the player is used to each weapon.
Overhauled Weapon Handling System
When holding a weapon with both hands, you can now release your primary grip to reload with your dominant hand, or quickly dispatch an enemy with a side arm while still carrying your primary in your off hand. This really helps with immersion and weapon physicality.
Overhauled Rendering System
The rendering system has been completely re-written from scratch to provide a much higher perceived resolution and crisper textures at absolutely no extra cost to performance. It has an especially dramatic effect at cleaning up the blurriness when viewing surfaces at very shallow angles. Please pay no mind to the chunky aliasing of these images, they are a side effect of my screenshot tool. When viewed in the headset, all edges will have clean antialiasing.
... and there is much, much more! Thank you very much for your time. Please stay tuned for a release date announcement!
