The BETA version includes some upcoming fixes, changes and additions such as;

--> In game rebind-able controls (experimental)
--> Some other small changes, fixes and improvements to be detailed later.
Thank you to everyone for supporting Bit Blaster XL and leaving great reviews. Please continue to share Bit Blaster XL with friends and family, I greatly appreciate it as the game has soared to a strong user base of over 150,000 players!
Please let me know if you encounter issues or errors in the BETA and I will make sure to address them before the wide release.

I have pushed through another version of the V3.1 Patch to anyone that is in the Beta. This should resolve the problem where the brake / boost isn't refreshing and working correctly. It also makes a change to the projectiles involving the new blackhole enemy. As well as fixes a couple small bugs found with the volume sliders.
I have tried many many times to replicate the error where the walls close in for some players and have yet to figure out what causes it. Please let me know if you encounter this and if you know the actions you did to reproduce it.
1) Does this happen ONLY when someone uses the Experimental custom controls?
2) Does this occur more than once if it happens? Or do the walls fix themselves after losing a round? Or after rebooting the game?
3) Are you using keyboard or gamepad? If gamepad, which gamepad?
Thank you so much to those able to help, I would really like to find this bug before I push this out to the public channel as I don't want new players to encounter it.
