Back to the updated content, this time, we have 3 new original songs: They're always freely included, with new guitar and drums levels. We also reworked virtual guitar positioning with gaze-based hints, and now it should be easier to adjust guitar positioning with a more generous grab area and an improved two-handed positioning: https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExdnBhY2NwNXJwYzl1b3dtc2xwM3R1a3h4OWc5a3h1eTkxaTBndHBtbSZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/XNBsQivc0X4z6F…
