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.

Three quick fixes: Locked framerate to 60, instead of, "Whatever your machine can handle." Increased the resolution of some of the planetary UI elements so that they aren't pixelated, specifically in the first mission. Created a 700ms buffer between when a dialogue screen closes and when you can launch a probe, to prevent accidental lanches.
Some elements of the Portuguese translation have been adjusted. The Portuguese translation has a correctly translated story-complete screen. Slight reduction in difficulty to Mission 22. Translator now appears in the credits. Velocity can no longer be adjusted in missions 1-3, to prevent new players from putting themselves in a bad state. Story missions with the Explorer goal now end immediately when you meet the goal, to prevent confusion.
We have our first localization, into portuguese!
Fixing a couple typos in mission dialog and toning down the difficulty on Mission 16 just a tad.
Fixed some issues with how music and sound settings persisted between session. Also added a new visual/audio sequence to when you hit target worlds or get new high scores in Explorer.
Pat of the dialog that introduces players to Expedition Mode was too long and truncating, so we've spit that into different frames.
