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.

The user interface had been discarded and redone many times for the upcoming DLC. Realism must strictly not be compromised by overly helpful instructions and manual. Please wait for the release as it is still being developed. This news is intended solely as a heartbeat indicator.
The staff room has a vacant area. It will likely be filled with non-essential mini games related to problem solving. Any comments and suggestions are welcome.
Expect the DLC Advances in Cryptology 2 to release before the DLC Advances in Cryptology 1. Advances in Cryptology 2 status: Stochastic methods - done. Cryptanalytic methods - done. User interface - in progress. Story - in progress. Manual - in progress.
Advances in Cryptology 2 is coming soon. It is about 3DES cryptanalysis.
Update #0012.2 Released. Linguist email exchanges added. Data collection score count added.
Update #0012.1 released. Able to change hair. Menu label "scene index." Previously, "index." Added calc button to R1 S-Box Non-0.
