New DX-Ball 2 Beta Out Now!

The new DX-Ball 2 beta is finally here! You can now try out the new 2.3 update before the official release by switching to the 'Beta' version from the game's properties tab in your library.

The update includes new toggle bricks that trigger changes to the board when you hit them and a new plasma ball powerup that can destroy bricks from a distance. The editor also has a new play feature that lets you test boards while you build them and a new class of "Permanent" bricks that let you build walls that even fireballs, lightning and other standard powerups can't break.

Season Pass holders will also get a new sampler set of boards based on the original Classic set that will be coming with the updated Classic Pack when it's released.

There are also a lot of internal changes that are part of our ongoing efforts to modernize the game's framework, but hopefully those changes should be pretty seamless for you guys.

Please let us know if you run into any problems. You can contact us directly at help@longbowgames.com

cheers, The Longbow Team
