Analog stick acts as 8-directional digital input
- Update to the game in March 17, 2016 added native XInput 1.4 support into the game, however it altered the input so that analog movement doesn't work anymore. It also made Steam controller and link work with the game, but at the same time introduced issues with XInput devices especially with windows version of 7 and earlier.

Run the game at screen refresh rate
- Fullscreen mode defaults to 60 Hz, even if the screen refresh rate is set higher than that.
