Dead Horizon: Origin

Dead Horizon: Origin is a free, very short point-and-click western game that launched on August 11, 2017 as a self-described complete, intentionally brief experience. The store description explicitly frames it as a finished product — "short and dirty," "takes less than ten minutes to play," and "totally free." There is no indication of any planned post-launch content for this game itself. The sole DLC listed ("Dead Horizon Extras") was released on the same day as the game, functioning as a supplementary bundle rather than ongoing post-launch content. The developer's news posts on this game's Steam page are entirely focused on other projects: a demo for a fuller expanded successor game called "Dead Horizon" (June 2022), a collaborative sci-fi murder mystery called Starship Murder (September 2023), and a fart-themed platformer called Fartmania (October 2024). None of these posts suggest any new content is coming to Dead Horizon: Origin itself. The June 2022 post actually confirms that the original game "came out about exactly as I wanted it" and that a separate, expanded sequel/spiritual successor was in development under a different Steam listing. Dead Horizon: Origin launched as a complete, intentionally minimal product and has received no post-launch content updates. It is done by design.
