The Voice Update (1.18)



It took a while, but now our hero has a voice!

The 1.18 update includes six character voices (optional) and facial expressions for our one-eyed dungeon raider. We really feel the voices add a lot of personality. You won't have to listen to entire lines of dialogue, but you will hear vocal outings of the hero's emotional state.

Also: we've boosted the speed of the cyclic dungeon generator significantly. Milage may vary, but everyone should have their game start quicker. On top of that: the game now uses less memory, which will improve its performance on systems with less RAM.

As always: let us know what you think! And if you enjoy the game, it would be a great help if you write a review.
