Evaluation

Anoxemia launched on January 16, 2015 as a complete, story-driven exploration game with 38 levels and a self-contained narrative. The developer shipped two small patches in the weeks following launch (January 18 and February 10, 2015) addressing bug fixes, new languages, and controller improvements. The only DLC ever released is the game's soundtrack, which shipped on September 22, 2015. No further developer communications, updates, or content announcements have been made since February 2015, and the soundtrack release on September 22, 2015 represents the last dateable addition to the game's content. The store description presents the game as a finished product with a defined feature set and no mention of future updates or additional content. With over a decade of silence from the developer, this game is clearly complete as originally shipped.
Evidence

About this game

It was supposed to be a simple mission. All I had to do was collect some samples from a contaminated area under the sea. As soon as I left the ship, everything went wrong. Communications were lost and my submarine crashed on the ocean floor. I survived, but my oxygen is running low and I can't contact anyone for help. All I can do is move forward with this operations drone as my only companion. Trouble is, it's been acting sort of weird lately. Almost as if it's trying to sabotage my mission...

Anoxemia is a story-driven exploration game that puts you in control of the scientist Dr. Bailey and his operations drone, ATMA. Search the ocean floor as you discover and extract samples from the bowels of the underwater caves. Danger lurks in each passageway, everything from poison drifts to powerful ocean currents, mines leftover from the war, and mobile machines running haywire. There's also the ever-present risk of running out of oxygen. Fortunately, ATMA can help guide you to your destination using a few special tools and upgrades. Assuming you can find them, that is.

The world of Anoxemia is both breathtaking and perilous. The seas are quiet most of the time, but as soon as you see a flashing light or hear a noise echoing from the distance, you know it's time to run. Of course, there are some dangers you just can't run from. Dangers you don't even know exist. Dangers from within...

Also available in Bosnian, Serbian and Croatian languages!
