Turnover is currently 33% off for Steam's Lunar New Year Sale. Happy Lunar New Year to all my friends out there!

Upcoming Update



Since Turnover's last update, I have been gathering feedback and working on a major update to Turnover.

The update will include:

Difficulty Modes: Turnover will have 3 difficulty modes to choose from: Easy, Normal, and Hard. Overall, gameplay for each mode has been refined and levels have been balanced. The aim is to remove frustration while retaining the game's core challenge.

AI Improvements: Searching and spotting has been improved, making enemies more aware and suspicious. Many AI issues have been addressed as well.

Collision Improvements: Enemy, player, and projectile hit detection has been revisited and improved. One example is that the player will now smoothly slide across walls when colliding, resolving sticking issues.

Control, Interaction, and Game Play Improvements: Players can now snap throw without aiming (with an accuracy penalty), Security Servers need to be unlocked with a password, and NPCs can be recruited and dismissed with one bind.

And numerous bug fixes, stylistic improvements, and some performance optimizations.

This update is currently in testing and should be ready within the next few weeks.

Turnover: Updated to v.1.0.691, Controller Improvements and Misc. Fixes.
Turnover's first post release update is now live! v1.0.691 improves controller support, brings some stylistic additions, and addresses bugs.

Aim Sensitivity



For controller users, there is a new Aim Sensitivity option that sets the speed of aiming/looking ahead. The option can be found in the Binds menu.

Controller Menu Navigation Fix: New Launch Option



I've had a couple of reports that some controllers clash with the default binds, making menu navigation difficult. To help players with this problem, there is now a new launch option: setcontroller. Running this option will take you straight to the Binds screen, where you can easily set the correct binds so you can navigate the menus and play the game.

Binds Menu Access



Access to the Binds menu from the title screen has been moved to the Options menu, just to keep things grouped together. Also, you can now access the Binds menu from the Pause screen, for easier checking or changing while in-game.

v1.0.691 Changelog




  • New: Controller aim sensitivity is now configurable from the Binds screen.
  • New: The Binds screen can be accessed from the Pause screen for quick changing/reference.
  • New: New launch options: setkbm and setcontroller. These take you straight to the Binds screen so you can set your binds down the line. Useful if you controller isn't compatible with the default binds, causing menu navigation issues.

  • New: Alerting patrols/Sergeants will trigger a color desaturation effect. Colors return when patrols are no longer alerted.
  • Changed: Access to the Binds screen has been moved to the Options screen.

Turnover: Beta Updated to 1.0.687, Includes Controller Binds Help
Turnover's beta branch has been updated to v1.0.687. This update includes a new launch option: setcontroller.

This was added as a solution for some players who had issues navigating menus with the default controller binds.
