changedWe started developing Mount Wingsuit back in the early VR days (DK2 days), barely aware that tracked controllers were coming, and failed to predict that it would be the preferred control method for games like ours. This became readily apparent on launch, as the Vive fanboys raged that we hadn't made a VR game at all, etc. Sadly, re-designing the game for tracked controllers would have meant a total re-balance of all the challenges, which was way out of scope at that stage, so the tracked controller support has always been a bit of an afterthought.
addedNow that the new flight model is ready for MW2, we have decided to port the necessary bits to make the controls work in MW as well, because we feel that we owe it to you to "do it properly." The MW2 controls feel so intuitive and natural that we're confident about releasing this without so much as a tutorial. Be warned that the vast majority of the game has never been tested with these controls, so there are probably significant balance issues.
addedMount Wingsuit 2Are you ready to take your wingsuit experience to the next level? We are currently working on Mount Wingsuit 2. Not only does it have everything that made Mount Wingsuit great, but we have been busy adding everything the game needs to be the definitive wingsuit VR app. There is a whole new mountain, with many more features, new game modes, multiplayer, and a vast, open world that transitions seamlessly between offline and online content. We have also built a new flight model from the ground up, this time focused on tracked controllers, which provides a far more intuitive flying experience. Get ready to strap into your favorite VR wingsuit and find your style! Mount Wingsuit 2 will be released in a few months.

We are currently working on Mount Wingsuit 2, and have devised a VR flight model and control scheme that feels far more natural than what Mount Wingsuit had to offer. We have received some criticism because the controls in this game are difficult to master, which stems from the fact that it was built for gamepads.
