List of fixes / modifications in the 0.2.2 build

• fixed a mouse input mapping issue*
• added a transparent layer behind the custom input mapping modal window (to make it clear that the 'back' button is temporarily disabled during the current input mapping sequence)
• lowered the kill volume in the ‘grind’ stage to make escaping less difficult
• add height fog in 'grind’ stage
• added grab targets to the side of the roof building and roof access structure in the ‘waves’ mode prototype (to support climbing on the structure and climbing back to the roof surface from a hanging posture)
• renamed the label string for the game settings from ‘options’ to ‘settings’
• modified the menu to return focus to the ’start’ menu item of the ‘prototype’ menu screen when exiting from the ‘prototype’ game mode
• postponed smoothing function until after opening frame of stages passes (to track randomness of character spawning positions without irregular camera transitions)

* if mouse input mapping is still not possible after updating to the 0.2.2 build, please remove Gang Beasts from your Steam library and reinstall
