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.

Witchball is Pong reinterpreted as a sci-fi racing game

Witchball, a self-described "post-reality racing game" from developer Stephen Clark, pits two players against each other in a race to the finish on several basic courses with obstacles. It’s also Pong.  A ball floats in between the two halves of the screen and players try to score on the other. Keep in mind, though, you have to do both at the same time.
