'''Update 1.8''' is an update in [[Geometry Dash]] that was released on August 7, 2014. It primarily added a new level - [[Hexagon Force]] and introduced slope ground objects. | |||

== Introductions == | |||
The most noticeable introduction into the full version was the addition of [[Hexagon Force]], which was seen in the sneak peek of the update. This level marked the first appearance of the diagonal blocks, which allowed the icon to travel in different directions. Within Hexagon Force were the brand-new copy portals, which made way for the revolutionary dual character game mode. This mode required players to control multiple icons at once. | |||
Outside of the new level, the 1.8 update introduced four new icons and several other colors. This included the achievements given for tapping the icons on the home screen. New kinds of spikes and decorations could also be added using [[Level Editor|level editor]], while users could change the background theme from squares to hexagons or circles. More blocks were also added, as shown in the sneak peek. In level editor, creators can also add a character guide line showing the path of the character. It could also be made so that two players could play on the same screen, with both playing on different halves. | |||
In [[Geometry Dash Lite]], the level [[Jumper]] was introduced for the first time. It was also considered one of the easier insane levels in the full version, and became the second level in the free version to have an insane difficulty. In the [[Update 1.9|1.9 update]], the difficulty of [[Jumper]] and [[Can't Let Go]] was changed to harder, but only in the full version. The [[Geometry Dash Lite|lite version]] still has them as insane. | |||

You can toggle on/off camera follow, and if you want the music to play in sync. There is also a new music play/pause button that will play the music and show a moving line that represents the position that matches the music. The music will always start to the left of the editor window, so you can quickly go through a level and sync it to music. | |||

* In the level editor, the Copy Portal appears without the a line on the triangle, but if you play the level , copy portal appears normal, like all the other portals (but speed portals). | |||
* It is impossible to get the "So Close!" Achievement in the Lite version, as [[Electrodynamix]] is the only level in which you can die at 99%, neither present in it. | |||
* On a post on Facebook he stated that it will be changed to 95%-99% on [[Update 1.9|1.9]]. | |||
