A new update for 2021 has been released in the past week. A fun playthrough by Waterflame and pftq can be watched below showing much of the new changes. We'll also have a group play session this coming Sunday at 2PM PT for people to explore the map together and battle it out in Zero-G again. Join us online if you can or feel free to watch in the livestream (Twitch.tv/VRJetpackGame)

The major changes include the menus, tutorial dome, boost rings, and generally the map feels much bigger and more open now. A full list is below:
- Added tutorial dome with AI voice guide by Waterflame as the starting point.
- Redesigned ground-level to be broken up and more open. Removed city/cliffs for more openness.
- Restored large floating island with clouds/waterfall from earlier version of game.
- Lifted max-height of flying to space-station level.
- Added clouds to floating space station.
- Added asteroid field between space station and large floating island.
- Added giant planet and mech in horizon for aesthetics.
- Added boost rings around map similar to Sonic games. Credits to Avari for the model.
- Added auto-rotate to any surface and stand upside down or sideways on planets or in Zero-G.
- Slight randomization of gunshot/sonic-burst sounds for variation.
- Proper menus for both VR and non-VR matching the menu music video with tower and clouds.
