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.

Future updates should no longer break save games. Before this change, updating Starship Theory would have required redesigning all enemy ships. This back end change removes this requirement from future updates.
This update adds three starting ships to choose from: an armed military transport (easy), mining frigate (medium) and an escape pod (hard). Each ship starts with different resource amounts.
This update adds windows, new floor textures, new paint options for single tiles, new ships and a number of bug fixes.
This update includes an automatic mining turret, larger CPU options, new ships to battle and many bug fixes.
This update includes multiple improvements to firefighting logic. Thank you all for your feedback and patience!

The universe is becoming a friendlier place! Update to version 1.0p for increased trade offers and greater XP for scientists and general crew. Don't forget unhappy workers consume more resources than a happy crew! Should not break saves. Patch notes here.

Every week we cast Brendan adrift in the black void of early access. This time, the bumbling spaceship management of Starship Theory Everything is on fire, all the time. This is the fourth spaceship I ve cobbled together out of a cramped and ill-equipped escape pod and it s the fourth ship to die from severe internal burns. All the crew members are also dead, except one, who I don t even bother to watch blowing up with the vessel. I quit out to start a new game before it even comes to that. I know where this story is going. Starship Theory is difficult, and not currently in a good way. It s t
