Do note that players on macOS are still better off WITHOUT Steam Input, due to the phantom X360 controller issue that appears or Steam Input simply not allowing the controller to work at all.

Ver 1.3.3 Update Note:

  • Updated controller support (may require a remap for your current controller)

  • Changed button 1 (Shot) to confirm during a Continue screen (in addition to Start), while changing button 2 (Elevation) to cancel or speed up the Continue countdown.

  • Removed the arcade ending bonus for non-1CC endings since the final score is not going to be valid for leaderboards
