Happy Birthday!
Cold Beam Games
Hi everyone,
It's Beat Hazard's 16th Birthday today!
Thank you so much for being with me on this continuing journey!
This update contains one of the most requested 'fixes' and that is for SFX to play in Stereo while using Open Mic. Well, it's finally possible due to an added feature in Windows WASAPI. Unfortunately, MS only added this to Win11, so it won't work on 10 (Sorry).
In other news, Beat Hazard Arcade is coming to mobile, you can pre-register the Android version here:

(iOS page coming soon)
Have a great day, and enjoy the update!
Cheers,
Steve.
