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.

We're pleased to announce two big things! First, Ballpoint Universe will be available in Japanese starting today. Thanks to Unity Games Japan, we have a fully localized Japanese version! We'll be premiering the game at BitSummit this evening. EXCITE Another big dealio-- For our small but dedicated task force, the Linux version is now available! We tried to get everything working the same as the Windows version, however gamepad controls aren't available on Linux. Anyways, thanks everyone! We're having a week-long sale in celebration of these two events. Enjoy~~

Testing some things with the Steam interface, so the game is technically downloable for linux, but has no guarantees of working as of yet. We will post a large post sometime later to announce it out officially. Thanks for your patience. ːdoodleː

Hey all! After enough loss of save files, we decided to move away from the plugin we were using for save data and make a more stable version. Important! If you already have save data, check out this thread before playing! It lists the steps to take to preserve your save data. Thank you! -L

We have now moved to a new saving system with support for steamcloud. Savefiles should never dissapear again, and follow your account around across MAC and PC. ONLY FOR PEOPLE THAT USED TEST BUILD: Delete local content, and manually delete the cloudSaves folder in your game directory:(this wont delete your saves, just the prototype for the cloudsaves system) DO THIS BEFORE RUNNING BPU THE FIRST TIME AFTER UPDATING: AGAIN: ONLY FOR PEOPLE THAT USED TEST BUILD These are usually located: WINDOWS: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arachnid Games\BPU_Data\CloudSaves MAC: /Users/USERNAME
