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.

The first major update for ASCII Attack adds some improvements to the Survival Mode. In Survival Mode, you must survive 30 waves of invincible enemies for 30 seconds each wave. You earn points by retrieving launch codes, shooting enemy bullets, and, well, just surviving. It is a hard core mode and if you die once, you need to restart from the first wave. The game now has a Restart menu selection if you die so you no longer need to return to the Main Menu to give Survival Mode another shot. The game also records your high score after each successful wave, so you no longer need to finish all 30
