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.

As with the original, we want to hear from you along the way, stealing incorporating all of your great ideas and feedback happyTom And if all that wasn't exciting enough - we're also creating Duskers 2.0 in partnership with Stray Signal, a new studio found
