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.

Fixed a bug with 32-bit compatibility on Windows.
How To Make A Killing has been re-launched by the Tired Gamers scholarship program. As part of this, there has been a large visual update to the game along with game mechanics changes. Stun-lock has been added to some enemies along with turtle quest updates and dialogue changes. The town of Hamelin is under the threat of the Necromancer and needs you to save it! Along with this update, we have discounted the game by 50% for a short time.
"How To Make A Killing" has been in development for over year and a half and has been worked on every day in that time. The game is an Open-World Action/Adventure RPG with unique characters populating the town of Hamelin. Over 20 enemies including multiple bosses and difficult dungeons are also prevalent throughout Hamelin and the surrounding areas. You can expect Cults, Addictive Substances, and other mature content from "How To Make A Killing" throughout your adventure assassinating your target. Watch the trailer below!
