Key points
- PC version offers very limited options menu and doesn't allow to rebind keys.
- Steam overlay is poorly implemented and doesn't stop the game from performing an action when a key is pressed. Can also cause framerate problems.
- Online services have been taken offline as of February 2015.[2]
