A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Hello Troy fans! The brilliant scientists over at Chasing Rats Games have been watching their experiment unfold and made the following adjustments: • Fixed an issue with save files getting deleted for a small number of players. • Fixed an occasional collision issue with Amadeus. • Fixed static water issue on the water abomination. • Fixed some issues with UI prompts when changing keyboard type. These changes will affect the PC version of Struggling only, leaving the Nintendo Switch version unaffected. Thanks for playing, and good luck on your Struggles!

Struggling is both of those things and—as the cherry on top of your character’s horrifying head—you and your partner are each controlling one of two horrifying, connected appendages. This physics disaster is out now if you’re really ready to test your co-op communication. (more…)

Triumph over a variety of ingenious physics-bas
Hi While we are hard at work bringing Struggling to life (in all its fleshy glory), we wanted to announce that the game will be localized in more languages than originally planned! The game will be available in the following languages : Italian Spanish (Latin) Simplified Chinese Russian German Korean Japanese Portugese Portugese (Brazil) We also had to reconsider the planned launch window. Since we want the game to be as amazingly absurd and fun as we can, we need a bit more time. It should release early 2020 instead of fall 2019. We are eager to release our abomination of a game into the worl
