Shroud of darkness, activate! V0.07 Patch Update, Active Abilities plus a trio of quests

Greetings Ghost Hunters!

We've just completed an overhaul of all playable characters which is getting us one step closer to realising our vision of Phantom Halls! Every playable character now has a unique active ability on a cool down which can affect the entire party! These are activated as an alt-fire by holding SHIFT when you attack with your character action keys - mix and match 3 of these abilities in a full squad and stack with existing passive abilities to unleash some awesome combos and unique strategies. There's also a few new quests to keep you ghouls busy...

  • Added Goth's active "Shrouded in Darkness", which drops enemy aggro and renders the party temporarily invisible (invisiblity is lost if a character deals damage).
  • Added Hillbilly's active "Now Git", which temporarily causes attacks not to expend ammo.
  • Added Metalhead's active "Moshpit", which causes the party to headbang, dealing damage and knockback to nearby enemies for 3 seconds.
  • Added Neckbeard's active "Roll 20", which grants everyone in the party to deal +200% attack damage on their next attack.
  • Added Nerd's active "Nerd Rage", which increases damage done by melee weapons and reduces damage taken for 10 seconds.
  • Added Writer's active "Chekhov's Gun", which restores ammunition to every equipped weapon.
  • Added the Neckbeard quest "Looking For Group".
  • Added the Jock quest "Sleepover"
  • Added the Goth quest "Music of the Night"

RIP
