Technically it's in an Alpha state. There are major features, like collision-avoidance and user interfaces that aren't even there yet. Beta-testing usually refers to a product in which all the major pieces are in place, and you're just looking for bugs.
The real Beta-testing phase on my programs is usually fairly short, since I test every line of code for problems as I put it in. One of the companies I worked for had a programmer who just threw everything together and let the Beta-testers sort it out. That company loved my code because it usually worked the first time, and only minor things needed to be changed.
