==Issues unresolved==<br />
===Steam overlay is not available===<br />
Opening the Steam overlay causes all input (keyboard or controller) to be ignored, ALT + TAB to desktop and then back into the game will resolve the input issue.<br />

==Issues fixed==<br />
===Run the game at screen refresh rate===<br />
