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.

Link added to The Ensign (pre-sequel to A Dark Room). Let me know if you like the visuals of ADR or TE more and I'll make sure both games get the same visuals. For The Ensign, I went with cleaner visuals as opposed to the retro aesthetic of ADR.
Minor UI tweaks/bug fixes.
Minor bug fix. If you are having issues launching the app on the Steam Deck, go to Settings for the game -> Compatibility -> Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool -> Select Proton 8.0-4. Notes from the previous release: - Refinement of the UI. - Ability to control volume through settings. - Minor pacing/balancing updates. - Less obtrusive notification of developer commentary. Hope you enjoy :-)
When I first released on Steam, I promised that commentary exclusive to the Steam release would be. That commentary has now been added :-) I've also made several quality-of-life updates (notably, the ability to toggle fullscreen mode via the pause menu).
