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 would love to see your screenshots of the digging you have done in-game, see a sample of ours here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1828512476
You will have noticed an update was published. This includes: -Adjusted health loss calculation if falling/jumping from big height. -Egypt level:Fixed some scripting/materials not showing correctly in cave areas. -Added option to stop sand/dune slow reset, gives unlimited time to dig without loosing current progress(sand growing back slowly), sand does not reset at all. To access: While in game, press the Escape key, on menu there is a button at bottom of menu to turn this on/off. Please do not hesitate to provide feedback or have questions.
Hi, Watch out for an update coming soon, this includes some improvements and also better lighting effects. Please do let us know if you have any comments / feedback.
Apologies that this is a bit late, have been able to enable a discount now for the Christmas / New Year period, lasts 10 days.
This includes adjusted low camera angle settings (e.g. to be able to look upwards), improved minimap option (use minimap that follows the player for map reference assist), improved low/high quality settings kept between multiple cameras.
Minor update published, includes adjusted camera/dig settings to make for a better experience where digging occurs very close/further away to player. Added Mouse Y axis invert option (Press I key to invert).
