Hello! This is just a quick hotfix to fix the "double reload" issue with the blast pistol.
After firing 3 shots, the gun would automatically reload; however, pressing the reload button again would cause the reload timer to start again, slowing the reload process. This should be fixed now.
Also reported were rare occasions where the pistol could be "bricked". I was not able to replicate this but as a side effect of the bug fix above I believe this is also fixed as it is likely related. If you do encounter any issues please report them to the bug report sticky in the Steam forums.
Changelog:
Fix Blast Pistol reload issue
Slightly reduced laser audio to match levels of other weapons

BLAST PISTOL UPDATE (v0.5.8)
The R&D department whipped this up after executives wanted an easy way to dispatch of middle managers who failed to reach their sales goals. While much more powerful than a regular Plasma Pistol, the range was intentionally limited to ensure stray bullets wouldn't damage the expensive paintings of themselves on the office walls. Must be manually cooled. Once unlocked, there is a 50% chance a Blast Pistol will spawn in place of a standard Plasma Pistol.
NEW/CHANGED:
NEW BLAST PISTOL WEAPON!
Improved hit reliability on drones and security robots
Plasma Pistol texture rework
Assault Rifle texture rework
Milk cartons destroyable
Improved floor and barrel textures on sewer maps
Assault Rifle and Bouncer Shotgun magazines now have a different model/texture if they are empty
FIXED:
Firing range Assault Rifle no longer has infinite ammo
Pistol accuracy properly effected by overheating again
You can no longer "phase" through enemies

Sonic Pulse Generator (V0.5.7)
Introducing the Sonic Pulse Generator (SPG)! This weapon is radically different to anything that has come before; it cannot fire projectiles itself, but you can use its shock wave to amplify and redirect enemy projectiles. Use it offensively by redirecting enemy projectiles back at them or directly damage enemies with the shock wave, or use it defensively by deflecting projectiles that would otherwise hit you.
NEW/CHANGED:
NEW Sonic Pulse Generator!
Added Assault Rifle casings
Nerfed revolver vs. Boss
Improved Stats screen on death: press trigger to continue
Added Sticky Launcher to debug mode
FIXED:
Fixed revolver tutorial typo
Fixed death screen typo

Sticky Grenade Launcher (v0.5.6)
Introducing the Sticky Grenade Launcher!
An explosive weapon for advanced players, it can fire up to four 'sticky' grenades that will attach themselves to any enemy or surface. When you reload, the grenades will detonate. This weapon takes a lot of experience and skill to use effectively but is lots of fun. Unlock it by reaching the boss area! :D
NEW/CHANGED:
NEW Sticky Grenade Launcher!
Tutorial text for unlockable weapons
Bouncer and dart bullets now home in on practice targets
Removed Syringes left on HQ floor when testing (oops)

DART GUN UPDATE (V0.5.4)
This update adds a new Dart Gun weapon, and the beginnings of an unlock / progression system!
Introducing the Dart Gun! The first of a new wave of unlockable weapons I will be adding to the game. This new weapon fires 7 homing projectiles that seek out enemies. The low damage and expensive ammo cost make it impractical to use against tougher enemies unless in a pinch, but nothing beats the dart gun for guaranteed hits on pesky drones and soldiers, which you can attack from behind cover if you are clever enough. Also surprisingly effective against the boss, who takes extra damage from red-type weapons. For now you can unlock the dart gun by reaching the Lab levels.
Change List
Added Dart Gun (Unlock by reaching The Labs)
Fixed boss battle when using Gun Magnet (Ammo vendors now spit out guns instead of ammo)
Increase Gun Magnet drop rate for easy and medium so you run out of weapons less on the later levels.

Inject yourself with a mutator and it changes how COMPOUND plays. Don't like needles? A 'No Needle' mode is also available (replaces needles with party poppers).

DAMAGE AMPLIFIER(Hotline Miami, in VR!)

- More enemies
NEW/CHANGED:
Added 3 game mutators: GUN MAGNET, DAMAGE AMPLIFIER, and PEOPLE POPULATOR
Wrist teleporter can now be used when dual wielding!
Mutator vending machine in HQ
Shower in HQ (use to cleanse mutations)
Fridge in HQ now open, filled with milk (just a visual upgrade at this stage)
Option to replace needles with party poppers

TURNING UPDATE (V0.5.2)
I wanted to get this update out while I work on a more interesting and game changing feature, coming soon! This update will be a ... turning point ... (sorry) for those users having troubles setting up turning. No longer do you have to mess with the input editor; it's now a simple option in the in-game menu. Much better!
