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.

Finally fixed the issue with the antivirus flagging. If you are still experiencing lag on startup please let me know, hope you all enjoy. This fix has taken up all of my day but ill be back with more QOL and bug fixes soon.
Right now the game is being flagged by certain antivirus (mainly Avast and Bitdefender) I am currently working on getting the game code signed which will fix this issue, but in the meantime if you are getting this issue you can do one of two things. run the game in administrator (only works for some people) Add an exception to the games exe in the antivirus. if neither of these work you can always disable your antivirus but id highly recommend you don't. I'm sorry about all the people who have experienced this bug, in 1-2 days i will get my code sign and fix this issue. now onto patch notes I'
To The Core is, to borrow its Steam description, "an incremental game about extracting and using resources from planets to buy upgrades." That's pretty much it. I've played it for eight hours since buying it yesterday, hooked by a progression curve that takes you from an ineffectual mining ship chipping at a single planet's rocky surface until you explode, to the leader of a swarm of bomb-dropping drones and aerial bombardment lasers that can travel a solar system and devour any planet to its core in seconds. It's part idle game, part Vampire Survivors, and it's out now. Read more
