This update is all about making sure it's easier than ever to be a superhero in VR. With new mechanics, improved menus and tutorials, a bunch of new options, and plenty of other improvements, now is the best time to jump into the (spring-powered) shoes of The Unbreakable Gumball!

Here's what's new:

Enhanced Visuals

Visual overhaul, including more vivid colors, glowing lights, and toon shading





Movable Enemies

Enemies are now movable, and can be thrown or pulled around with gumlines

Gum-Zipping

You can now yank on gumlines to pull yourself around quickly

Wall-Jumping

Charging your jump while next to a wall will allow you to slide down it, making wall-jumping much easier

Long-Jumping

You can now long-jump when running forward

Menus

Overhauled the menu to include many new options: Smooth, Snap, or Smooth-Snap Rotation Head or Hand-Oriented Movement Vignette intensity to combat motion sickness Automatic reeling strength Three different reeling control methods



Tutorials

Overhauled the tutorial by splitting it into three separate and more open tutorial rooms: Parkour: Learn about jumping, long-jumping, wall-jumping, and floating or gliding with bubbles Gumlines: Learn about how your gum shooters work and get the hang of swinging around Combat: Practice fighting dummies and shooting targets



Miscellaneous

Running speed has been increased, with an additional sprinting state when moving forward as quickly as possible

The game can no longer be paused, in the interest of making the menu and the tutorials accessible at any time

The opening sequence can be skipped by pressing the SKIP button behind you

The ending screen now gives you a few statistics, including how long it took you to complete all the objectives, what your fastest speed was, and how many times you used each ability

Added new music tracks to enhance the swinging experience

Removed ability to tether objects together with gumlines, as it interfered with throwing dummies

Various minor improvements and bug fixes

What are you waiting for? Quit sitting around and start swinging around!
