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.

Hello Hunters! The Bot Hunter release is near so here's a little update. In the previous update we have added 2 new magazines: Ripper and Plasma Ball. Now we have made a dedicated type of guns for each of them as well as new shotgun model. You can now notice the enemies holding them so you know what to expect from their attacks. We have recieved messages pointing out that the game balance needs improving. We made some changes so player's weapon is now overheating slower and enemies are a bit more easier to kill. Let us know what you think of the gameplay now. To help player in the later stages

Dev Update #5
2025-02-14 14:26 UTC · Community Announcements · m.sabat
Hello Hunters! It’s time for a small review of what we have done recently. We focused on improving Bot Hunter’s storyline that you could experience through the chat with the mysterious contract giver. We felt it was a little bit too plain so we did some brainstorming and formed a complete story with a questline assigned to it. It has much more depth now and it gives meaning to the gameplay. This resulted in the updated Demo version 0.1. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45106431/fd523a7f118a5a1ec8c9f17fcb553ea626c6d19a.png Unfortunately, storyline changes were so significant we had to WIPE THE SAVES… BUT the

Hello Hunters! Public Playtest was a big milestone in Bot Hunter journey and it lead us to even bigger one: Bot Hunter Demo. This time we were polishing the tiny details and now we are ready to release the demo for you! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45106431/1f4b3a5f3ad247c9057a811a323bbd4034c37c50.gif The most notable changes we've made are: Improving player weapon model (we've made it more detailed and contrasting) Introducing player's armor that increases max HP and adds variation to player model Making tutorials more readable and ordering them better Improving death and beam up vfx Fixing issue with
Dev Update #3
2024-12-30 16:17 UTC · Community Announcements · m.sabat
Hello Hunters! We're in the middle of playtest and we've received lots of valuable feedback from you for which we are super grateful! Many of you pointed out that Bot Hunter's movement and shooting need to be more dynamic. We've tested a few options and have chosen the one we think will be the most satisfying. Now each Jump and Dash increases your max speed up to some cap. Than it gradually decreases. While you're moving with high velocity not only you deal greater damage but also receive less of it. We've put a lot of efforts into improving camera movement. It's much smoother now what helps t

Crafting System
2024-12-12 16:43 UTC · Community Announcements · m.sabat
Hello Hunters! One of the core mechanics in Bot Hunter is its unique Crafting System. It allows you to create a wide variety of guns from simple modules. Everything from Blaster Pistol to Fully Automatic Shotgun Rocket Launcher. The weapon is a reflection of your progress. You do not level-up, you need to craft better modules instead. It is crucial to understand how weapon modules will interact with each other so we’ve made this Crafting System Overview for you. Your weapon is made out of 5 modules. Each of them is responsible for different aspects of the weapon. LightCells - define basic dama

2024-11-14 14:29 UTC · Community Announcements · m.sabat
Hello Hunters! Since the last time you were hearing from us, a lot has changed in Bot Hunter. We managed to give our UI an overhaul. We have added a new death screen, which now shows the loss of items caused by the player's defeat. It also informs the player of the run time and the number of enemies killed. In addition to this, we have completely revamped the Quick Wheel menu and polished the Harbinger tab (i.e. the in-game chat). We also paid some extra attention to making our main menu look presentable by creating a Bot Hunters galaxy’s diorama and adding it to its background. This diorama c

2024-09-20 11:16 UTC · Community Announcements · m.sabat
Hello Hunters! During the last couple of weeks we were super busy polishing our game for the trailer release. Our main focus was to increase UI readability. We improved crafting and weapon panels as well as map and minimap view. We reworked crosshair and added the heat bar which informs you about overheating your weapon. And lastly, we’ve added a custom death screen. For a smoother gaming experience we’ve implemented Xbox controller support. We adjusted UI navigation and added AimAssist which can be tweaked in the settings. DualSense support will be implemented in the nearest future. We were a
