CFrame Review: Compound

CompoundCompound by 'Samaxis' is an excellent game, it features an excellent combination of brilliant scripting and outstanding CFraming in conjunction with the building it possesses. Even though this game takes a high amount of PC power, if you do have the computer that can handle it on maximum settings.


This game features a few interesting Guis, the Gui features the 'GetMouse()' function, allowing someone to manipulate the mouse without making them use a Tool or Hopperbin. One of the most bold gui is the lens-flare. For those of you who don't know what a lens-flare is, this is what a lens-flare is a series of beautiful light that the sun is casting over the lens of your eye or a camera. The lens-flare is in a certain angle which is determined by the angle of which you are looking towards. In Compound once you look at the sun, a lens-flare appears on your screen and is determined by the angle of which you are looking towards. This is a feature that is really beautiful, and just adds to the CFraming that Samaxis did in this game.


Compound has a collection of guns with which you can cycle through to find the perfect gun for you, to cycle through them you can just use your mouse-wheel to change the weapon, (sort of like Team Fortress 2). Some of the weapons are very nicely built and very well sized. Due to the fact that this game is a first-person shooter, the sizing of the gun and it's position has to be perfect, Compound is an excellent example of a game with precise positioning and scale. It's a perfect specimen.


Although I believe there is too little to do in Compound, it is an excellent game and possesses some of the best CFraming I have seen in a long time. Which is why, Compound is one of the top CFramed games of this 'era' in ROBLOX.


CFraming: 10/10
Wow, so excellent, I couldn't think of anything to say that's bad!

Scripting: 7/10
It's pretty good scripting, the lens-flare is especially good and really adds to the brilliant CFraming.

Overall: 8.5/10
This game is a very good specimen of a game that should be on the front-page and should be showcased on the ROBLOX blog to influence and encourage other users to put as much effort as Samaxis has in their games.

Thanks for reading,
