With the Frame finally out and jumping back into VR, still one of my favorite VR gaming experiences out there even years later. Just a fun rogue-lite experience with tight controls and fun gameplay, and never get tired of sessions with this game. Worked with barely any headache streaming to the Frame. Hope to see more from this dev again sometime!
This is a very strong VR title. Possibly one of my favorites to date. Excellent soundtrack, fun gameplay. I expected to be a bit disappointed by the aesthetic and the simpler weapon interactions but it was actually exactly what was needed to fit with the eerie campaign and world. And in the end the weapon reloading difficulty lives in the perfect sweet spot of Fun VR Interaction without being convoluted. The reloading is not hard but just precise enough to add a little suspense when clearing a large room. Also playing on Hard adds a lot of unique enemies seemingly only present in that difficulty and I was genuinely horrified the first time I got jumped by the plague rat. The world we live in is truly a void with nothing but filth and evil. This will remain true until Bevan McKechnie finally reveals a new VR title. This game is going to absolutely SLAP on the Steam Frame.
Absolutely recommended solid and smooth VR shooter. The art style looks great and the combat is fun and challenging. Ironic Sci-Fi B-move feel, great graphics, effects, sound and polish, great controls on different VR systems, you will find nothing of typical VR low quality clunkiness with this title. I am a picky and experienced VR player, I started hundreds of VR games and get discouraged of the quality but I always come back to play Compound apart of Half-Life: Alyx and few other quality titles. The game has got some randomisation of levels but each level going up the tower has got its own identity. The gameplay generates deep and fun combat encouraging movement and trying varied weapons and tactics. I like that the projectiles shot by some enemies are slow enough to be evaded by movement but still fast enough to test your reflexes, sometimes it can lead to scenarios like in bullet hell games. I haven't been able to beat the game yet but each new level is different and brings new design and interesting enemies. If you have a headset that allows higher refresh rate (120, 144 Hz or more) crank it up, the game is light on the GPU and will take advantage of even more time-resolution of movement. The games enemy characters are very lively and "real" despite the pixelated texture style just because the art in this case benefits from great sharpness and execution, they will bring some colourful and heart pounding arcade-style action in VR. If you just saw the trailer in 2D you may not realise how despite lack of typical "realism" immersive it feels inside the game in VR.
