Well, as you can see from that image, I was able to successfully build the darn thing.ːsteamhappyː It took me a lot longer than I had hoped to get to that point. ːsteamsadː


So after getting it to build, I tried running the game. It turns out that there is some...err, "magical", workflow I have yet to figure out and no documentation I can refer back toːsteamfacepalmː:. A lot of the assets were missing but I tried to just unpak them from the Steam version and I did get somewhere with it, but it's not a 1:1.ːsteamsaltyː


I am trying to get in touch with one of the previous programmers who knew the actual workflow so that I can be brought up to speed real quick. Once I know exactly how I can test a local build successfully, I'm confident that I can start working on some of those outstanding bugs finally. ːsteamhappyːːsteammockingːːsteamhappyː


My priority will be:

• Crashes
  
• Game-breaking bugs
  
• Quality of life / UX

P.S. Due to some crazy NDA/Legal stuff, I guess I can't stream Source Engine codeːsteamsaltyː:....sooooo until I resolve that (if I even can...), I'll try to update you all as much as I can on the progressːsteamhappyː.

Hey all, real quick. A few crappy things happened over the past few hours/days or so in the communityːsteamsadː. I've been hard at work trying to get Outbreak's demo polished like a diamond so I can finally jump into Source SDK.ːsteamhappyː

Sorry if we're not engaging the community enough on this side (Discord is lively though!). But as soon as I can pump out a few more small updates on Outbreak I'll be on Source SDK like Peanut Butter on a Dog's nose. ːsteamfacepalmː

On that note. I have done two things to freshen up the place. First, there are no more non-dev moderators.ːsteamhappyː

Second, anyone who was banned in the past has been given a second chance. ːsteamhappyːːsteamhappyːːsteamhappyː

I don't care about the reason you got banned, but if you f*ck up next time, you're gone for good because I'll be the one swinging the freaking banhammer (and it's a big one, but I'm not overcompensating! ːsteammockingː).

The team's newly put together and we want to share this fresh start with you. But it only goes as far as you allow it to go. Toxicity in any form is not conducive to any relationship, that includes a dev-gamer one.

Please, all that I ask of you is that you take a little bit of time and compose your thoughts using the knowledge and details that I have given you in my previous announcements or posts.

Be respectful to one another and to yourselves.

I don't even remember if I wished you all a Happy New Year's, but if I didn't..well...

It's a new year, new team, new fresh focus on both Contagion and Contagion: Outbreak. Give me and the rest of the team a fighting chance here.

Now go get your big boy/girl pants on and talk to y'all later.

Happy Friday Frenzy! We have already begun the process of handing out access codes via Discord. Keep in mind while discord (discord.gg/monochrome) is a great tool for us to talk to you guys, we may have certain surprises for you on our Facebook and Twitter as well!

Twitter Link

Be sure to follow!

A few players were able to get some codes and will be streaming/recording their own game play, all of their links can be found in the discord to see other fellow players test out the new demo.

We will be doing some trivias on the facebook and twitter, hoping to have a pretty good time while we hand some extra codes. For now, First 5 to like our facebook, and send me (Mike) the safe word on discord will get a code to preview the demo. We will do the same with Twitter! So keep your eyes open! Keep in mind, this demo is for VR Users, so if you have a VR headset, come on down! We will be doing trivias tomorrow morning and all day for your chance to get a code to test the demo.

We will announce on the discord when keys have run out for tonight.

If you are a content creator we’d love to see more of your stuff on Contagion: Outbreak, so we made a special section for you on our discord. Go forth and create!
