To us at Valiant Game Studio, it's important to underline that all love is valid and beautiful, and so are all genders and identities. Our own hero Brialynne used to be married to a woman, and you can decide while playing Pendula Swing what her dating habits should look like going forward. Does she cross race lines and date a goblin, or does she fall for the adventurous human lady?

To celebrate Pride, we're part of the first ever Summer of Pride Steam Sale!



Check out great deals and discounts on a bunch of amazingly inclusive LGBTQIA+ games - including Pendula Swing, of course!

Hey there!

We'll be hosting a little AMA session on Total Arcade Racing during the Steam Game Festival, check out the Steam Page for more information on the game but here is a little glimpse of the action in the game.



Join us during the Steam Game Festival on Discord: https://discord.gg/AyYtKXT

Starts 7 PM CET, 1 PM EST, 10 AM PDT on the 16 of June
We'll be doing an AMA-style chat where you can ask any questions you like about the game, game development or ANYTHING you want!

Not much is known about the leader of Gold Squad. Due to his extremely high fees, he is only deployed to deal with the most dangerous threats. Here is the short list of intel we have been able to collect on him so far:

• He is heavily armored, and has almost certainly undergone extensive cybernetic or genetic modification.
  
• He carries a custom railgun / shotgun hybrid weapon, so he is dangerous at all ranges.
  
• He is equipped with a new type of force shield that appears to be completely impervious to small arms. Luckily for us, it seems he only uses it when engaging a target at range. Even when deployed, it does not cover his face and right arm, so he can aim without distraction. This could potentially be used to your advantage if you can confidently take quick, precise shots at his head.

Advice: Gold Leader is most likely the strongest opponent you will ever face. He is a legendary marksman, so don't count on him missing often. Use quick hit and run tactics and break line of sight as quickly as possible. Always aim for the head.

This option, on by default, makes dropped guns hover on the spot instead of falling to the ground. This can be disabled in the gameplay options.

Screenshot mode is now separate from debug mode. Enable it by setting 'ScreenshotMode' to 'True' in the config file, located at C:\\Users\\[username]\\AppData\\Local\\COMPOUND\\config_2.cfg. Once enabled, high resolution screenshots can be taken by holding weapon action button + trigger on your left hand. Screenshots are stored in My Documents.

NEW/CHANGED:

• GOLD LEADER BOSS added to Executive Power 2 on HARD MODE
  
• New 'HOVERING GUNS' option, ON by default
  
• AI modified to reduce unfair situations
  
• Screenshot mode made separate from debug mode (See
  
• Misc. cosmetic improvements to HQ
  
• Misc. cosmetic improvements to final boss map
  
• Minor performance improvements
  
• Lobby collision geometry improved

FIXED:

• Blast pistol 'bricking' when dropped mid reload
  
• Labs boss bleeding even when gore is off
  
• Rare case where sticky launcher could become 'bricked'
  
• AI incorrectly leading shots on teleport players

P.S. please report any issues to the forums. You can always roll back to an older version in the BETAS tab under right-clicking COMPOUND and selecting Properties. Thank you for playing COMPOUND!

Finally today!
Popotino's secret will be revealed!
Stay tuned for next week!

Voice Actor Interview - Ayumi Sara(Teia) /

1. Please introduce yourself. We would also appreciate if you could request your Twitter account, biographies, etc.

Hi! My name is Sara Ayumi. (Https:/twitter.com/ayumi_sarah)
I am active in bishojo games, radio, voice works and YouTube.

Void Girl (Yukiko Chihara)
Otome*domain (Asuka Minato)
Evenicle 2 (Yuragi)
Kimagure Temptation (Annelise)
Amakano 2 (Chitose Tsutamachi) etc.


2. Please tell me the character in charge of WISH. Also, please tell us what you emphasized in playing the character.

I acted as a Teia
Teia is a girl with a manly, cheerful tone, but she's a very cute girl in her heart.
I performed as a charming child who can be enjoyed twice with the cuteness that is visible on the outside and the cuteness that is hidden inside.


3. Please tell us about the appeal of your character.

Teia has a gap between her cute appearance and her lively and fun personality
She was a very acting and fun girl. I think she's definitely loved at the party.
Thank you.


4. Please tell us the titles of your recent works.

Amakano 2 released on April 24 (role of Chitose Tsutamachi) Thank you.
In addition, steam temptation (the part of Annelize) is scheduled to appear.
I want you to play this too. It has the same pink hair as Tia.


5. Due to the coronavirus, I have decided to refrain from going out. How are you going?

I wanted to do what I couldn't do until now, such as reading and playing games.
I enjoy my hobbies because I can take time slowly at home.


6. If you have any interesting games, animations, movies, etc. recently, please introduce them.

I like the Resident Evil series, so I enjoyed playing the new Resident Evil RE:3.


7. What is the recent my boom?

The challenge is to try new cooking recipes.
Recently I'm making tandoori chicken and baking scones.


8. Finally, please give a word to the users.

I think that many people are having a hard time because they cannot keep up with their usual daily lives.
I pray that it will be a day where I can refresh myself and spend time slowly while spending my time well.
If you have too much time, please take this opportunity to play WISH more and more,
I would be happy if I could introduce it to my friends and have fun with them.




interview2 -Sound producer interview悪眼 極(Evil eye)

1. Please introduce yourself.

This time, I'm the evil eye who was in charge of producing the audio recording.
I'm usually involved in animation production and localization of social games.
In this work, I supervised the Japanese language and assigned the main staff when recording the voice.


2. I heard that it was the first time to record 'Eroge', mainly in anime PD! What was it like?

I was particularly impressed with the special expressions and the large number of expressions in the H scene. Such as when the character's position and emotions increase
The careful direction and the fine adjustment of the performance were very impressive.
I think the script (word choice) that reminds you of the situation was also wonderful.
It's a sequel.

3. What do you think is most important when casting?

Voice color and quality and expressiveness that stimulate imagination.
Short hair is short-feel, glasses are glasses-feel, big breasts are big breasts-feel, etc.
I think the imaginative performance can inflate the character more.
Identifying the potential may be an important point.


4. What is the most favorite character in WISH, and why?

It's Abigail!
I've been interested since I received the design drawings,
With voices added, it became a more attractive character.
Boysh voice with glasses sober cute big breasts magical girl
The atmosphere is refreshing even though all the excellent attributes are added.


5. What kind of genre would you like to make for adult anime and games?

Outdoors/Standing/Axillary/Panemaji


6. It's hard to go out because of a virus. How were you spending?

I was doing my normal business while being aware of social distance (lol)
A design mask made by Hina Nakase, the sound director of this time
Thank you so much for wearing it.


7. What are some of the games you recently made interesting, movies, animations, etc. that you saw interestingly?

It's not a movie or anime,
Tomokazu Sugita [Did you try "Hare Hare Yukai" dance? ] Video was the best.
https://youtu.be/mTn-Pnl6Ft4

8. What is the recent my boom?

It is to deal with ASAP in consideration of logical thinking.


9. Finally, a word to the users.

It is a puzzle game that you can easily play,
but The story is magnificent with a magnificent view of the world.
Please enjoy it with "Voice ON".

Hey guys!

So, I spent some time on getting the linux builds to work and just published them!

Please give me feedback if everything works properly, because admittedly I'm not a linux expert! :) (So, even if everything works, feel free to leave me a message in the #feedback discord channel so I know everything is good!)

While I was on it, I figured it would be easy to also integrate steam cloud saves - so those are also available in this update now!

Besides of that, I'm currently working on a fix for broken savegames, this has the following reason:

- The game saves your progress automatically and asynchronous, to make sure it doesn't lag
- This process can (especially on larger bases) take up to 5 seconds or more.
- If you exit the game within that time, the write-process will be disrupted and thus you will end up with a corrupt file
- Unfortunately its not possible to restore the file, once corrupted.

The fix here is to implement a mechanism which many programs already have: Write a secondary file, and once written rename it to the original file. This ensures that the content is written as whole.

It's not easy to integrate and takes some time, but I'm giving my best!

Be sure to also check the Roadmap Announcement to see what I'll be working on!

PS: If you are interested in helping with the translations, check out the Translations on GitHub!

PPS: Northernlion played shapez.io! This is so cool! Check out the video


PPPS: I'm so overwhelmed by all this positive feedback! Love you guys! (And I can hardly keep up, please don't be mad if I don't respond instantly!)

First proper look on The Uncertain: Light at the End gameplay. This is a story driven adventure game set on post-apocalyptic Earth taken under control by AI. You are a part of a small group of survivors trying to figure out the reasons of the catastrophe.

This walkthrough shows the first level of the game and introduces some of the characters and basic mechanics.

NOTE: this demo contains unfinished parts of content and does not represent the quality of the release version of the game.
