COMPOUND is a randomized, rogue-lite, free-roaming shooter for Virtual Reality veterans. Duck and dodge around enemy fire in a tough-as-nails retro FPS with multiple locomotion options. Prepare to die - a lot - until you are good enough to reach the heart of The Corporation and take back what belongs to everyone...
What is this?
The concept of COMPOUND started as an attempt to move away from the 'wave shooter' formula common in early indie VR titles and towards a fuller FPS experience, built from the ground up for room-scale Virtual Reality. The trade off is that this game may not be suited to players who are still coming to grips with VR.
Who are the developers?
Just me! This is a passion project; I've had great fun working full time on COMPOUND for the last 6 years.
Can I help?
Yes, please! As I mentioned, I am developing this game by myself. I need the feedback of the community to help me find bugs and balance gameplay. If you have any suggestions or find a bug that isn't in the list of known-bugs, please drop by the forums and let me know.
Cool music!
I know! But I can't take the credit for it; the music for COMPOUND was made by the handsome and talented SPEEDBLACK. You can even purchase the OST directly by searching for "compound speedblack" on bandcamp[/url]
This game is too hard!
Rogue-lite games are supposed to be hard! But don't give up - you'll get better with every (doomed) run. Eventually you'll master the game and its systems and feel like a pro. If you are still getting frustrated, try playing on easy mode, or head over to the practice area to practice fighting an enemy you are having trouble with. I also added a guide for new players that is pinned in the forums. Please read it for tips on how to survive!
This game makes me feel sick...
Unfortunately the feeling of motion sickness just doesn't go away for some people. But that's fine! COMPOUND should be perfectly playable using only teleportation. Also, there are all sorts of comfort options that might help prevent or lessen motion sickness. Please take a look at the options and try various combinations. You might find with a little tweaking you can make it feel right for you.

Played the demo, then immediately decided to buy this game, this is so much fun!
I love games like this, the first video game I ever played was the Original DOOM on my old Windows 98, and this game kinda takes me back, with simple graphics, and fun rougelike, I havent put a lot of hours into it at the time of this Review, but I promise this game is amazing!
worth 2000 pennies
It's fun for a bit but some flaws hold it back. I would rather not put yes or no on recommend cause I don't like downvoting indie games if I can help it.
The powerups only sit on the map for 3 seconds, not an overstatement, unless you are standing right on top of it when it drops it's going to disappear so 90% of them disappear without me being able to get them, especially far away I shoot someone and sprint to the powerup but its gone before it was physically possible to reach it.
You can really only carry 2 guns to be able to have a free hand to pick up things and reload, except that you can carry 3 guns if you don't want an open hand, so you are incentivized to carry 3 guns and have to constantly drop the third gun to be able to reload or loot anything, kind of obvious bad design IMO.
The enemy AI consists entirely of "walk straight toward you while firing their weapon at the same interval" I mean it works but it's the most barebones thing possible, don't expect anything else.
There's no VR interaction with anything at all in the world, no picking anything up except the ammo/food/powerups, not a big deal.
It's pretty short and levels are tiny, just 3-4 rooms with some enemies in them.
For like $10 I could see it being worth it maybe, but I just don't enjoy it and there's barely anything there.
Just play the demo and decide if you want that plus a couple more levels for $20. When you look at the value vs studio releases, these solo VR devs are really asking way too much $$. And they don't even have to pay a staff they get it all, and good for them they did the work, but it's not worth it to me. This is FPS Ancient Dungeon IMO with the same problems. I would refund it but I bought it months ago and it's way too late now even with 1.4hrs.
It's like if you played OG DOOM on a pc from the 1990's except you took large amounts of LSD and CRACK
SOOOOOOO good, well worth the $20 asking price. If you are looking for a good VR shooter, look no further.
Wonderful. Can't wait for the H3VR Collab
For what it's worth. It's okay.
However personally speaking, I think the developers shouldn't be charging 20 bucks for this.
There is a lack of content in this game in which yeah it's a rougelike, however it just doesn't hold up to other rouges like Risk of Rain or The Binding of Isaac.
I really have to buy a new VR headset. Absolutely loved this game back when I had the Rift.
One of the greater VR games
Great game
Easily the best roguelike I’ve ever played.
Amazing rougelike :D
Fantastic game, had a great time. Will be coming back to this soon.
Perfect - super responsive, beautiful, fun
I keep coming back to this game. It grows on ya. It fills this weird Wolfenstien 3d meets risk of rain 2 vibe. It starts as subtle charm, soon you find yourself unlocking some very cool guns. It's a solid 9/10 for me. Great VR game. Quest 3/s on a black Friday deal? try this.
This game is addictive. I'm not a fan of Rogue Likes or Rogue Lites. But the fact that I couldn't finish the game on medium, drove me crazy. First time I played it on easy. I arrived to the boss super easily, I was disappointed, still got killed cause I didn't know his pattern. Then I played on normal and damn it was hard. But now I'm getting better and better and managed to finish it on normal. I have all the weapons unlocked. The mutators are fun. Especially the one with bow and the one where you have to not being touched once but you kill everybody in one hit.
For the beginners I advise you to do it on easy with the bow or with the mutators that reloads the weapons for you. So you can dual wield and go guns blazing.
My only complaint is the last boss. Cause the invincible frame after you get touched is non existent practically. So, if you are not hiding at the time he shots at you. You're done for.
Technically, the game plays like a Dark Souls. Don't try to go gun blazing like crazy, always try to aggro one enemy at the time. If you can though. And you guessed it, keep turning around in circle for most of them and run also run back like you're playing Serious Sam. But be sure don't end up on another room with other enemies behind you. So loon at the map for the new weapon at the first level of each chapters and at the second one, try to do the mini bosses at the end.
This game is fantastic, a true VR game, not just an experience. The replayability is great and has optional challenge modes with some brutal but fair difficulty.
Fantastic game. With the bHaptics and ForceTube mod, this game is a blast to play through. Great mechanics. Gives that "one more run" feeling. A+
Aside from a few guns having finicky reloads, this game is perfect - it's worth your time and money. A little hard to learn at first, but it quickly becomes a great time-waster with smooth controls and satisfying gameplay. The game really leans into 80's action schlock and satire while giving off nostalgic vibes for old-school gamers. The low-poly colorful graphics look great, but I can see it being a little jarring for people who aren't used to VR or have motion sickness. The huge benefit here is that the performance is flawless; no frame drops or stuttering anywhere (for me, anyway). I'd love to see a sequel or add-on of some kind, or the option to play on desktop. 10/10
im so used to not moving that i struggle to take cover sometimes but this is sick, runs perfectly and its so crisp and satisfying, one of the best vr shooters out there just buy seriously i'm in love with this game
YES SUPER FUN.....BUT the damage amplifier mod is aids litterally got trapped on a wall got shotguned in the face and the boss doesn.t die in one shot while everyone else does its bullshit...

Side Note: Playing this is like being in an alternate universe where VR Headsets existed in the 1990's
Best actual video game for VR (full release B&S being a close second)
Hot take: I love the sonic reflector and the bounce shotgun.
i love you, compound
Had some huge stutters that wouldnt go away, which is weird since this game is very simple graphically. Gameplay wise its very basic and you can tell it's an early VR game. If you're willing to go through the usual rogue-lite grind of a couple hours of boring early gameplay to get to the real meat of the game you might be fine. But it's just not very engaging from the start, and I personally don't want to do hours of filler gameplay to unlock interesting content.
yeah it's pretty good
Awesome, super fun shooter
very fun
I would consider this a must have VR game. It's fun and challenging and very unique.
