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.

Everything cleaned out Users dont want GEN AI in their games and we heard them so we took it out, all of the references to sounds using genai and features of chat with llms are out of the game!
Improved camera, More buildings into the cityMore enemies coming every 3 minutes unless you press the 4 boxes of deactivation.Fixed animation after dead
Clean the city that is full of datatokens, deactivate the boxes to clean the city faster and close the energy feeding the alien enemies, the more you clean the city the more score you get :)
also you can talk the npcs to take to places with special stuff, check the video
ADD: SIMPLE TRADE WITH SYNTHIANSADD: METAMATERIALSADD: INVENTORYADD: TALKADD: KEEP THE WEAPONS UPGRADE THAT YOU FIND IN THE MAPADD: IMPROVED SHADOWSMORE FPS!In order to speak with the locals you must open the talk menu with the T letter, synthians will tell you were to find the metamaterials necesary to reach back to your planet
running activated by default, improved spawn points, added more energy drops from enemies, added more environment exposition, changed reticle to green for better visualization, we need to really push the deactivators or the datatokens will never be extracted from the empire
sycophants are loose in the city, you can talk to them but they are dangerous! using the letter t and moving around the npcs they will talk to u! also shadows optimization
ADD: LINUX NATIVE UPDATE. INCREASED SPEED OF VESSEL UPDATE: SMALLER SIZE FOR DEBUG WINDOW
I started the dream project in order to understand technically why gameswere getting fuzzier and fuzzier and asking for higher requirements butthe performance is every time worst. As a result we have this game thatyou can even play it in a steam deck, or get it to run in 4k with a non dedicatedgpu as the 780m There was plenty of stuff that i didn't understand about the market of not free games,1. Gamers want to test the waters first. Either you do a demo or make a beta .2. there is a lot of boring stuff highly demanded by the user, like control configurations.3. Even making a big game full of
optimizations synthiian server online
Some visual updates, added red keys, mothership is running around in the air now
Postprocessing optimization for 8-10 fps more. Respawning position changed to the point of the last energy charger used.
REMOVE: shitty soundtrack. ADD: you can lesson to diffuse agency (metal ) if you play R. UPDATE: environment is being healed. UPDATE: removed extra sky reflections improved fps ADD: you can leave messages in the city for everyone! (by pressing the letter P). ADD: more datatokens everywhere, enemies also drop the tokens they been stealing. REMEMBER: if its night use the lantern (L)
ADD: New building! Thanks to the synthians fighting back we have been able to bring edificio Colon (great views). ADD: player syncronization with mothership ADD: extra tokens from killing enemies UPDATE: Enemies arrive faster to kill you
Improved aim sensitivity ui updates map in the sky for finding tokens
