• Version 1.0.12 - 24 November 2023

From the launcher option you can now optimise game files. This will remove unused builds from your installation to reclaim space.

• Version 1.0.10 - 22 November 2023

  -NEW! We've updated the game's cameras to focus on the character dynamically when moving around instead of being at a fixed point in most areas. This prevents the character being out of screen and causing possible out of bounds which made transitions between cameras difficult to navigate. This has negated the use of the fallback cam so it has been removed. Bug Fixes- -The underground now has a fully dynamic camera instead of fixed camera angles, making this action segment easier to play than before. -The Grounds on the way to the shed now has better dynamic angles than before. -The Grounds when on the way to the Mauselem now has better dynamic angles than before. -Fixed improper placing of lamps on doors. -Fixed Mauselem cameras making fighting the boss easier than before. -Fixed Subway camera clipping and only dynamic on certain areas. -Fixed bugged dynamic cameras in mansion living qu…

• Nominate SPIRITUS for Steam Award! - 21 November 2023

Medium is now the default, but higher graphics mode can be changed from Settings as on some GPUs it was causing texture glitches. -We've enabled a fallback camera that will automatically enable in certain areas making transitions to cameras much more fluid than before. You'll see this fallback camera in the starting area more often than later in the game due to the very close camera angles that have more chance of missing a transition. -We've fixed a bug that could cause fallback / shoulder cam to…

• Version 1.02 - 15 November 2023

  We've made some important quality of life feature changes and fixed some bugs in the game. More notably, pressing and holding 'C' during gameplay can toggle the Shoulder Cam which gives you free movement in game if the player is off-screen and 'stuck' between a camera transition. This helps see where you are in the game if this happens. By releasing C and moving to the next camera transition the game will return to it's normal view. This should help prevent scenarios where the player is essentially 'stuck' if they can't return to the next camera shot. Also, we have fixed some progression bugs that could occur along with improving core game performance.

• macOS Support! - 14 November 2023

  We've added full support to SPIRITUS for macOS 13 (Ventura) and above, meaning you can now play on Windows, macOS, and Linux/SteamOS! SPIRITUS is optimized for Apple M1 (and above), but is also compatible with older Intel chips.
