Halloween season has started! The Monke have been busy. They have rooted about and found the decorations, and dusted off some old favorites. It's looking spooky out there.

Oh and did we mention 👻 Ghost Tag is BACK!

BARE BONES

There isn’t much meat on this cosmetic update... Because it’s a Bare Bones One. 💀

Thats punny but I bet ‘no’body will get it….

Destinations (formerly VStump) has a new look..

• The East and West side tunnels are OPEN taking you straight into some of the best Destinations has to offer.
• Map browsing has been revamped. There’s a brand-new front page and a new Browse Room you can now browse maps directly from the Mall.
• 20-player rooms are now supported 👀.

Quality Of Life

First Person View: More OG cosmetics now work with FPV! Including The Golden Head and Paperbag Hat you can now hide them when FPV is enabled.

Performance: We have made some changes to a key game system we hope helps address some of the lag ingame and players becoming stuck on ice when a new player joins.

Anti Cheat: Using ADB commands to give yourself longarms on Standalone or Fly have been blocked.

Competitive Tweaks: Comp can now view if certain ADB settings are used to alter default play. This allow competitive communities to define their own standards for scrums and ranking systems.

VIM Room controls: Now work correctly in 10-player rooms, including modes like SuperInfection.

There’s rumors after they have been who knows where the Critters have found their way home after they escaped.

SUPER modes in Spacemap!

Grab a gadget or spawn some in for friends then mess with gravity. Curve those Logger blasts around a planet. 🌎💥 for a cosmic trick shot. There are some seriously fun ways to play. We think this addition is pretty ‘Super’. 🚀

New space-age materials have been discovered that make Friendship Bracelets work in space. Has science has gone too far?

In-game QOL improvements
-Fixed some times a rare sound bug could break audio in game. If it happens again, let us know where! 🔊✨
-Added anti-hacking changes to throwable Barrels and similar cosmetics.
-PVP balancing with cosmetics in Paint Brawl making it fairer, not all projectiles pop balloons in that mode.
-Continuing the VStump love 💙 there are Luau stability fixes.

As we mentioned in this Discord Dev Talk Post and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12LbgTWNmdE, we're currently focusing our efforts on some bigger things behind the scenes, and we're really excited about what we're working towards, more when that's ready for a reveal. This is our priority so there hasn't been much changed in Gorilla World this time around, we are sure it'll be worth the wait. 👀
In the meantime, grab your friends, head to Space, and have fun with SUPER modes!

Hey Astromonke or is that Monkenaughts? For years, Monke have been asking one question...

"When are we going to space?"

The answer is: now.

Get ready to take one small step for Monke, one giant leap for Monkekind.

The Gorilla Corp researchers have found a way to harness the mysterious artifact. Thanks to their latest breakthrough, Monke can now travel beyond Terra Firma and begin exploring the unknown.

VIM From GTFC TO Everyone!

As part of that commitment to Early Access several features that launched first for GTFC are now becoming available to all players:

🌋 Floor is Lava destination

👕 More Outfit Slots

🏗️ Extra Monke Blocks Slots

Many features start with VIM first so we can test, iterate, and improve them with a smaller crowd before bringing them to everyone. Sometimes that will happen quickly, sometimes it will take a bit little longer.

This update is one more step in that process, and there is plenty more to come.

Also for the active VIM’s the exclusive banana cosmetic has dropped.

Creator Fest is here, bringing a collection of creator chaos and celebrations to the city, it seems someone's taken over..

Cool Environments to hang with friends and creators

Limited Edition Cosmetics - Special edition Creator Fest versions of gear are available for a limited time. Bling anyone?

Scavenger Hunt 🏆

Think you've got what it takes to crack the clues? A special scavenger hunt will be taking place. Find every clue and you'll unlock the legendary Golden Paw in the store.

Breakdance Bundle 📻

Dust off the cardboard, grab your boombox, and prepare your best spins. The Breakdance Bundle has arrived, complete with the BoomBox. It's 1980 again, and being hip is officially cool.

VStump Fixes

More VStump features are making their way to PC. Save support is now available, along with a number of quality-of-life improvements and fixes.

Gorilla tag Fan Club - Sharable and Early Access features.

Early Access Room Controls

Starting first with VIM's, we're rolling out Room Controls in early access for **private** lobbies. Hosts *(Player at the top of the board)* will be able to Mute, Kick, and Block players, giving you more control over your own space than ever before.

🔇Silence mutes a player for everyone in the room and can be toggled on or off at any time.

👟Kick removes a player from the room, but they can rejoin.

🔒 Block removes a player and prevents them from rejoining that room while it remains active.

Blocks/Mutes are room-specific and do not carry over if the room is closed and reopened.

Dig!

Just like the VIM Volcano, we're creating a new shareable space. Anyone with the VIM can bring their friends, or whoever they fancy into the caves to explore together.

There's one small difference this time. You have to dig.

Carve tunnels through the dirt, create shortcuts, build hiding spots, or clear out every last chunk you can find. There are no set objectives, no timers, and no right way to do it.

The caves are yours to explore.

Grab a Pick :pick: or experiment with some existing cosmetics and pick how you play it.

The weather is heating up, and so is the latest update!

🌈 Pride Celebrations Begin

https://preview.redd.it/dmcep78qx34h1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=a4ec876b06af73ce032b8987f56329ed31315207

💌 GTFC: Send a Message to Lemming

We are also introducing a new Fan Club feature that gives VIM’s a direct way to send messages to Lemming.

While he and the team won’t be able to personally reply to messages, he will be reading through them. Whether it’s feedback, ideas, encouragement, funny moments, or things you want him to see, this is a new way for the community to share directly with him.

Community feedback across Discord, and other social medias, and all of our existing channels remains incredibly important to us and is not changing. We are not treating in-game letters as “more valuable” feedback. This is simply another way for players to connect with the team.

⏰ Two new alarm clock locations have also been added: Atrium and Ghost Reactor.
