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.

Comet 64 Patch Notes (9 october 20)
2020-10-09 05:15 UTC · Community Announcements · what sorceress this
FIXED: when missing a semicolon in a statement where there is division, it was throwing a 'division by zero' error instead of 'missing semicolon'. FIXED: when the last line was a jump statement, blank lines were being counted towards the line count when they shouldn't be. FIXED: in jump statements, not leaving space after the colon was throwing an error when it shouldn't matter.
Updated Fonts
2020-10-07 02:27 UTC · Community Announcements · what sorceress this
Previous fonts used for the game, were non-monospaced and it didn't quite fit the aesthetics of retro-computing as well as making the block caret look weird on some characters. They are now changed to monospaced fonts, so now Comet 64 looks sharper than before. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38610244/eeb427aa3b5a32ff1fbbe72eb9ec2c441281177a.png
