changedGather 'round, brave Dirgelings, for a chillingly delightful update that'll make your ectoplasm tingle with excitement! Version 1.6 of Dirge has emerged from the dark depths, armed with more treats than a haunted house on Halloween night. We've summoned the spectral talents of WiseZauriel , a professional voice actor and streamer extraordinaire, to breathe life into our characters like never before by taking on the role of Vince. Prepare to be spellbound as Vince, our intrepid narrator, guides you through the tutorial with all the gravitas of a seasoned investigator – it's a performance so spine-tingling, you'll scream for an encore!
addedBut wait, there's more! We've tinkered with the audio settings, adding an adjustable dialog volume slider to ensure every shriek and whisper hits just the right note. And fear not, for we've exorcised pesky bugs faster than you can say "boo!" Say goodbye to befuddling menus, cryptic tooltips, and the spine-chilling sensation of munching on snacks moments before facing the Reaper. Our guns now match their spread to your cursor, ensuring your aim is as sharp as a vampire's fang on a moonlit night! So, grab your ghost-hunting gear, rally your fellow investigators, and plunge headfirst into Dirge 1.6 – where the scares are plenty, but the laughs are eternal! Follow us on social media and check out the update on Steam for a frightfully fun time! And don't miss out on WiseZauriel's eerie escapades on Twitch – it's a scream!
