== v0.38.25 — The Desktop Build Learns To Speak Steam ==
* UNDER THE HOOD, DESKTOP ONLY: the native build now carries the Steamworks bridge — the wiring that will let the Steam release pop real Steam achievements, know who you are for sign-in, and prove your purchase. Nothing uses it yet (achievements connect in the next step), and the web game is byte-for-byte unaffected.
* The bridge is deliberately unbreakable: if Steam is not running, not installed, or you are playing a non-Steam copy, everything simply reports "unavailable" and the game plays exactly as before — it can never crash the boot or block a save.
* '''And now it pops.''' On the Steam build, earning an achievement in-game unlocks the real Steam achievement — the 100 launch achievements published to Steam this week, wearing their drawn icons. A quick burst of earns arrives as one tidy batch rather than a popup storm.
* Every boot also quietly reconciles your whole earned list with Steam, so anything you unlocked before the Steam build existed, while Steam was offline, or on the web version is credited automatically the next time you launch through Steam — no manual sync, nothing to lose.
