Controller increases supply voltage and asks to much current

I think experts in PWM schemes, motor controller algorithms, regen, etc, may understand what is happening.

I am trying to develop OpenSource firmware for Kuteng motor controllers with STM8S105 microcontroller. With 6 steps the motor runs ok. With original firmware that implements sinewave, the motor makes more noise, asks a bit more current and increases power supply voltage. Then I tried to implement 4Q Bipolar PWM and after some days debugging, I am pretty sure the waves are correctly however, the motor asks to much current, (like 4 times more than original firmware), makes a lot of noise and increases a lot the power supply voltage (like from 30V to 36V) -- the current and voltage increases when increasing the PWM duty-cycle.

Can someone help me to understand what may be happen??

Thanks in advance.
