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've heard all your feedback and are committed to giving our fans the best experience we can, so we're excited to announce that we've been working on a free upcoming game mode along with various improvements to existing mechanics. This mode will be focused on a more active action-oriented experience. Standing atop a tower in the clouds, hold off a goblin balloon assault as long as you can while keeping yourself and your tower safe from arrows and bombs. Be prepared to break a sweat!
