*New level "[[Jumper]]"!
*New achievements and rewards!
*Bug fixes and tweaks.

==Trivia==
*The sneak-peek left out and added much stuff from the final version of Hexagon Force.
*In the first image, there is a slope on the left that was slightly modified before it was added to the game. In the game, it no longer has the vertical line splitting it into two. This vertical line, however, is still seen in the invisible variant of the slope.
*On June 16, 2017, Viprin tweeted some images of early concept art for Geometry Dash.<ref>https://twitter.com/vipringd/status/875738661316329473</ref> The third picture shows a hexagon-styled gear sawblade, which was early concept art for 1.8.
*This update has a small tweak to ball physics.
*The sneak peek for this update doesn't include the first secret coin, which is located in the first ball sequence.
