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.

Cheers to anyone new discovering our weird little experience. PRICE DROP 🍁 $14.99 CAD 🍔 $14.99 USD (etc, other countries) Double-thanks to our hometown fans. You still remain the best part of this.

In addition, all through July, seasonofpride.tv will be featuring a special Twitch schedule highlighting a fantastic collection of inclusive games played by amazing members of the LGBTQ+ streamers and raising money for The Trevor Project, Trans Lifeline, and GaymerX.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/5611244/64692b988da8aa96f56ccc3ac8edde421d811032.png Hello Vagabond Artists! In the coming months, Vagabond Dog will begin production on a Special Edition of Always Sometimes Monsters. This physical release is being designed for collectors and fans alike, and we want to make it extra nice with some unique bonuses for all to enjoy. To this end, we are hosting a Special Edition Art Contest for all the talented members of our community who would like their work featured in this release. We’ve gathered some fabulous prizes for winners, including a cash award and featured placeme
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/22138246cb28330699ca16727cf5224cc4066876.png Always Sometimes Monsters turns 7 years old today! To celebrate, we're having a franchise-wide sale. 🥳 Get ASM or SAM (and all of their DLCs) 50% off! 👍 Limited Time Only! Check it out on Nintendo Switch as well. https://store.steampowered.com/app/274310 http://store.steampowered.com/app/441440
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/b876b86974fac1819ffc1ec4b490f962a7515f63.png Aaaannndd.... we're back! It's been a little while since we've written one of these update notices, but rest assured this is a good one. While we've been off releasing The Stonks Market, releasing Always Sometimes Monsters on Nintendo Switch, and prepping our studio for the next big project, we've been slowly adding small improvements and new content to Sometimes Always Monsters. While, as mentioned, the studio is getting ready to step into production on its next major production, we remain commited and eager to continue
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38521136/25fe395ca8e9c8e3e697ed2ac9d78971433d623f.png How's your portfolio doing? Today we're pleased to release The Stonks Market, right here on Steam. It's a simple trading simulator with a funny story about a rather clueless guy who gets into all kinds of trouble through the stock market. You'll get access to a basic trading terminal, a stimulus check, and enough time to risk it all gambling on bad plays you've barely researched. All of this while you contend with a frustrated wife, too many know-it-all advisors, and the crippling fear of losing it all in an instant. Kind
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/3a5932fafcc201d5b45cfde6d025899c1ae6119d.png Happy Halloween, everyone! We've got a very special update for those of you who want a little extra spooky with your Monsters. In addition to some fun content that's only available if you play the game on Halloween (or change your system time to match), the entire series is also on sale for the weekend. You can catch both Sometimes Always Monsters and Always Sometimes Monsters as part of Steam's Halloween Spooktacular. http://store.steampowered.com/app/441440 https://store.steampowered.com/app/274310 Spread the word.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/cf8841e37e2e617e40209b5645988d277e2e2322.png Wow. The calendar just kind of melted away, huh? It feels like yesterday we were prepping for launch, and now we're officially 6 months past release. To celebrate, SAM is 30% off, and ASM is 70% off until October 12. A lot has happened in that time (both in-game, and out), but it's been a great ride so far. There have been nearly 60 build updates for Sometimes Always Monsters, including over 600 individual changes, additions or improvements, along with around 30 significant new content additions (features, scenes, or sign
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/77685af3a6ab3cbbe86118902ca826f6b23f84ce.png We've had a pretty busy month since the last update... In addition to building and releasing Karen: An Outrage Simulator, we've been cooking up some new content for Dog Gone Golfing, and delivering high-quality development streams almost every day on our Twitch Channel. Atop all that, we've not forgotten our commitment to continually improving the Sometimes Always Monsters, and have thus prepared another juicy update since the release of the Author Outfit DLC Pack. Although we're only working about 3 days per week on new
Attention gamers, Our new title, Karen: An Outrage Simulator has officially released. It is now available for your gaming pleasure! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1361110 Grab a copy and enjoy the thrill of becoming the ultimate Karen, arguing your way to the top, and crush the underpaid souls of the customer service employees in a bid to get everything you deserve! Available now with a 15% Discount during its launch!
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/2c360674b86e26be3972c6be71b6b3842cdc2d20.png If it's been a little while since your first time through Sometimes Always Monsters, we've got a hot new update that's makes it a great time to re-enter for another tour across the country with your writer pals. In addition to a stack of new content that's been added since launch (and more in this patch), we've also added the Author Outfits DLC to add some fresh styles to your fellow author companions. It's available right now for only $1.99, or even cheaper with the 25% launch discount until August 11. https://store.stea
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/f96e86b130b4e1e51b9aa20d454cddc5e61a74ee.png Wow, this one took way longer than expected. That's the way it goes sometimes, apparently. For a single piece of content, the new fan (Aaron) turned out to require a significant amount of extra testing (Thanks Ash) because of it's many extra choices and endings. It's one of those situations where we had this specific apex moment we wanted to reach, but the lead-to and fallout both required a sizable amount of variance to follow the "real choice" logic that SAM typically demands. Would have felt dishonest cutting the optio
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/fd812f91e032664c955789de92246402e30baada.png This week we felt like working on some more opportunities to hang out with the other authors, as it's one of the elements about the game that's most fun for most players. A new commentary system has been developed that's going to make it even easier to add little sit-down conversations with your fellow scribes, and (apart from the breadth of writing) they can be implemented with relative ease. In coming updates this is likely to manifest as opportunities to chat over coffee, or other similar situations. We also resolved a
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/24174678/4fbb3a34c470e446af12451b182134d4ba1c37c9.png So, we're running a sale on both Sometimes Always Monsters and Always Sometimes Monsters for the next few days. This promotion is part of an effort to help the conclusion of the INDIE MEGABOOTH organization which is shutting down due to the situation surrounding COVID-19. The folks at the IMB have been incredibly supportive of Vagabond Dog over the years, and helped us get the exposure we did during our first showcase events. We've been grateful to be part of the community ever since, and are hoping that this sale will he
