First of all, thank you so much everyone who purchased or wishlisted the game! The response and feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The launch has been a great success thanks to you. Speaking of things being overwhelmingly positive, I am so incredibly grateful to receive the elusive 'double overwhelmingly positive' rating. I couldn't believe it! Thank you so much. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28349140/010c126aecfae954b89ed7b989dd328291943e7d.png Anyway, here's the changelog for the latest update: Changed/Added: An updated texture for the tower that has canonically accurate windows that match the

After 6 long years, COMPOUND has finally left early access! I've said this a lot recently, but this could not have been possible without the fantastic feedback, suggestions, bug reports, and encouragement I received during the early access period. Thank you all so very, very much. If you have been waiting for release, now is the time! I am immensely proud of what COMPOUND has become and I invite you to try the demo so see what it's like! https://store.steampowered.com/app/615120/

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28349140/501fc97b3c0ffdd1d0de8242c6a4dc57bc976459.png COMPOUND IS LEAVING EARLY ACCESS ON JULY 19th, TUESDAY, 4pm P.D.T! After 6 long years of work, I am proud to announce that COMPOUND is ready for the version 1.0 release! A huge thank you to everyone who contributed in any way, whether it be through feedback, bug reports, or just by purchasing the game. COMPOUND would not have been possible without you. Thank you all so very, very much! What a journey this has been. I am equal parts excited and terrified for the upcoming release! As a side note, version 1.0 is available to

The demo of COMPOUND was starting to get very old so I have updated it to reflect the feel of the v1.0 build. (just in time for the VR Fest) It is now actually more up-to-date that the default build! You can opt into the v1.0 open beta to get all the latest features back, of course. If you own the game, simply right click on COMPOUND -> open the "BETAS" tab and select the "v1.0 Release Candidate" build from the list to play. Speaking of the v1.0 open beta, thanks to the very helpful feedback from the community I have applied a small patch just now. Here is the changelog: ADDED/CHANGED: Mapmap

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28349140/26de461a51ab64c0720a50827de8e4d5a0a79f2a.png Version 1.0 of COMPOUND is finally here, and the public release is imminent! But before the official launch, I'd like to invite early access owners of COMPOUND to try out v1.0 early to get feedback to make sure the launch is as smooth as possible. Due to the complexity of making modern games, recently there are too many buggy builds on launch day. I'd like to buck that trend with your help! To access the version 1.0 candidate, right click on COMPOUND in your Steam library, click 'Properties,' and go to the 'BETAS' tab. Fr

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28349140/ddb8e1ef0ab23cd1b0b702a1c715d75a3649dc5e.png 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. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}

It also adds the Collectables Shelf for an upcoming new feature... ːcoolendoː I'm working on the big final 1.0 release, but I decided it would be better to release some of the content I have available across a few updates in the meantime instead of going too long without any updates at all.

Kill (or be killed by) an enemy to unlock it in practice mode. Using the Practice Area will not effect save data so you can save and exit a run and practice fighting an upcoming miniboss before returning to your run to fight "for real." Alternatively, high level players can use the Practice Area as a sandbox to test their skills. So y
