Evaluation
The game launched out of Early Access on November 30, 2023 after roughly two and a half years of development. It received several feature patches and bug fixes in the months following launch, and then a significant Version 2.0 update on June 27, 2024 which overhauled the combat system with a new direct-control fighting mode, reworked hero mechanics, and more.
Critically, the developer's own post accompanying Version 2.0 included an explicit statement that this would be the last major update: "after version 2.0 I will no longer be working on actual updates other than bug fix patches, and all my time will be moved to my new game." This is a clear, direct declaration from the developer that content development for this game is complete.
Since then, the developer has continued posting occasional maintenance patches (bug fixes and minor optimizations), consistent with their stated intent to provide only bug fix support going forward. A March 2026 patch note confirmed the developer is actively working on a new game and a mobile port, further reinforcing that no new content is planned for this title.
The game is complete as of the Version 2.0 release on June 27, 2024.
Evidence
Developer confirmed they are working on a demo for a new game and a mobile port of this game. No new content is mentioned for this title — only minor optimizations and bug fixes, consistent with the developer's earlier statement that major development has ended.
Version 2.0 released with a new combat system. Developer explicitly stated: 'after version 2.0 I will no longer be working on actual updates other than bug fix patches, and all my time will be moved to my new game.'
