A year later, we can finally announce that we will bring the story mode and full version of Malicious Payload. We listened to the players and made changes to the required game mechanics. Examples are new reload mechanics, game optimization, and many improvements. I hope we can make everyone happy with the product they buy. We plan to leave early access soon. After the release of the new version, we plan to listen to the feedback from you and complete the game. List of changes can be found bellow:
Added Story mode
Added new Reload Mechanics
Added new Survival map
Added 3 new guns (Assault, Shotgun, RPG)
Replaced Tutorial with new Gun Range
Better locomotion support
Removed Black Hole grenade

Reloading Update
First of all, we apologize for the long update. It was difficult to hear the necessary feedback because we got far less feedback than we expected. However, we have added everything that should be available in the full version to our to-do list.
Returning to our topic, part of the feedback we got was the lack of weapon reloading mechanics. We made a research about this and made it suitable for our game. In addition, you can see the new weapons we have added and our new map (Pirate Spaceship). We would like to share with you how it looks.
Please note that this update will be in full release not in early access.

Locomotion Update
Added Locomotion support that everyone wants. Please note that this will be an untested method, errors may occur. You can choose which hand to walk.
Ability to turn was added with options with 30-45-90 degrees option.
Rotation problems in Oculus Rift S have been fixed.
Score tabs now show your rank on the global leaderboards.
Minor bug fixes.
You can change your options from main menu.
Survival Update
Many optimizations have been made for the survival mode. Like buying weapons, doors. In addition, other enemy types in the story come depending on the level of survival. This provides the necessary challenges and fun for the survival mode.
New explosive barrels have been placed at critical points on the map, but keep in mind that don't get too close when blasting the barrels.

Thank you to everyone waiting for Malicious Payload. Currently, the development process and optimizations for Scenario 1 are ongoing. Game story improvements and adjustments are available. For Scenario 2, the map adjustments are in progress. In a short time you will have more information about the game.
