Evaluation
Action Henk launched out of Early Access on May 11, 2015. Following launch, RageSquid continued to ship content updates: a Halloween update (October 29, 2015) with new skins and features, a daily challenge system (December 7, 2015), a Christmas winter environment with new levels (December 22, 2015), and finally a major update on March 8, 2016 that brought local multiplayer to PC alongside the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One console releases. That March 2016 update represents the last substantive content addition to the game. On August 2, 2017, RageSquid announced they had spent the past year working on an entirely new game — Descenders — and explicitly thanked Action Henk players for making that transition possible. This announcement made clear the studio had moved on from Action Henk. There have been no further updates, content announcements, or roadmap posts for the game since then. The only DLC listed is the soundtrack, which released on launch day. The game shipped as a complete experience and its post-launch content additions concluded with the March 2016 update.
Evidence
RageSquid announced their new game Descenders, stating they had been working on it for the past year. The post thanked Action Henk players and signaled the studio's full focus had moved to the new project.
Console launch update also brought local multiplayer to PC, along with a new unlockable character skin and bug fixes. This was the last major content addition to the game.
