Bit Blaster XL - V3.11

Fixed bug that some players encountered that resulted in no sound or music after update to V3.10
Figured out how to make all buttons respond correctly to mouse over and now they will properly highlight and if no mouse movement is detected it will revert to Gamepad or Keyboard detection. (look at me, I'm learning)
Optimized all textures using some new methods I read about, making the game require less overhead.
Upgraded engine to Unity 5.6
Options menu music link now leads to the Free DLC on Steam
Modified exit menu to have link to twitter, other projects, and website. As well reworked my phrasing in the thanks dialog to be more in line with Steam policies.
Modified words slightly in tweet score function.

Thank you everyone for playing and sharing the game with your friends and family. Thanks so much for the support. If you are enjoying Bit Blaster, make sure to leave a brief Steam Review and let others know to check it out. The reviews are so very important. -Adam Nickerson Also make sure to check out my new XL arcade series game orbt xl - coming April 21st 9am PST. http://store.steampowered.com/app/615610/

A throwback to the classic quarter eating arcade games of the 80's. Bit Blaster XL is a retro styled, addictive, and fast paced arcade shoot 'em up! (shmup).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
● Easy to learn, simple arcade style Controls to turn your ship and boost (can also use a gamepad) (not a twin stick shooter)
● A variety of wicked Power ups like Split Shot, Heat seekers, Lasers, and Blast Shot to assist your survival.
● Several unlockable ships to pilot with unique attributes to give you an edge in the Leaderboards
● Endless survival (infinite) score chasing game play with a classic arcade style
● Steam achievements, leaderboards & Trading cards! (with emoticons & profile wallpapers)
● Cool retro pixel Graphics.
● Gameplay inspired by Luftrausers, Asteroids, Space Invaders and Geometry Wars (some of my favorites)
● Unique chiptune songs for each ship.
● Manual Fire mode for those that want a different experience.

Description of Gameplay:
Your ship can not stop moving; so turn it left and right and use your boost to keep from running into an ever increasing amount of enemies.
Your ship is always shooting, so make sure to pick up more ammo and the variety of awesome power ups to help you survive longer.
Get the highest score you can while collecting coins to buy more ships that are faster, shoot faster, or have more shields.
