Dimensional Double Shift Accessibility Update: Turn the World, Not Your Living Room
There’s a very specific kind of chaos that comes from playing VR and suddenly realizing your “one quick turn” has turned into a full-body interpretive dance. Furniture trembles. Pets judge you. Conglomni Corp would like to assure you that none of this is OSHA-compliant.
Enter Thumb Swipe in Dimensional Double Shift 1.10.
We’re excited to share that Snap Turn has got a new buddy with Thumb Swipe! Players can use a gesture using one hand to rotate around in game without needing to move around their physical space. This is on by default, and can be turned off via the Accessibility settings menu.
Close your hand loosely, and position it in front of you with your thumb facing up, resting on your index finger.
With your thumb flat and rested, swipe left to turn left, and snap right to turn right.
Your arm does not have to be straight out, it can be bent if that’s more comfortable for you. Your hand can also rest on a surface! Just make sure your hand is visible to the headset cameras, it should work!
We are still working on improvements to the gesture and tutorial pop-up. Please share your feedback in the feedback channel over on our Discord.
Enter Snap Turn in Dimensional Double Shift 1.9.
This update introduces a spiffy new way to rotate through your shift without physically spinning like you’re trying to summon a portal (though, legally, we cannot confirm whether that works). With Snap Turn enabled right from your hand menu, you can pivot your perspective with a simple button squish.
Clean. Controlled. Far less likely to knock over a lamp you definitely said you’d move earlier. And for those clocking in from the edge of a bed, a well-loved sofa, or whatever corner of reality passes your personal comfort test, it means no more awkward half-twists or negotiating with gravity just to turn around. Your shift adapts to you now. Imagine that.
For those who like their tools a little more visible, Floating Bubble Snap Turn is waiting in the wings. Toggle it on, and directional bubbles appear right in front of you, ready to guide your rotation like a helpful (and non-sentient, per company policy) assistant. You can even fine-tune their height and distance in the accessibility menu, because comfort should never be one-size-fits-all… even in a dimension-hopping workplace.
The result is a small change that quietly transforms how you move. Less friction. More flow. Fewer accidental real-world collisions filed under “experimental movement.”
Conglomni Corp approved. Probably.
Now get back to your shift with New Joysey. Or else…
