Evaluation

Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor launched on September 16, 2016. The developer, Sundae Month, issued a statement on March 18, 2017 that they had "a lot of other cool projects" underway and were "not planning any more updates to the game at this time." This was followed by a final performance patch in December 2017 — the developer's own post acknowledged this was unexpected, noting "Way back in March, we said there would be no further support for Diaries. As it turns out, we've been able to cobble together a bit of an update." That December 2017 patch appears to be the last official communication from the developer, and no further content, DLC, or updates have been announced since. The game launched as a complete, self-contained experience with no season pass, no unreleased DLC, and no post-launch content roadmap. Development has been finished since at least December 10, 2017.
Evidence
An unexpected final performance patch was released; the developer acknowledged this was contrary to their earlier statement that there would be no further support. This is the last known developer communication.

About this game



Take in the trash...

Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor is an anti-adventure game about picking up trash in an alien bazaar. Play as the Janitor, an Alaensee girlbeast with a municipally-subsidized trash incineration job and dreams of leaving the planet of Xabran's Rock far behind her.

Explore the Spaceport! Navigate the maze of alleyways, side streets, plazas, and bridges as you search for discarded items to burn. Investigate one of various entrances to the mysterious subterranean sewerdungeon, or climb the ominously symmetrical Ziggurat to get a better view of the urban landscape! If you pay attention and keep track of landmarks, you won't get lost... probably.

Embrace routine! Spend your days cleaning up litter, finding food, and testing your luck at lottoshrines scattered throughout the area. Daily tasks form the backbone of your life as the Janitor, providing structure and monotonous security in an uncertain world! Do not deviate from your routine. Pray, work, eat, sleep. Do not deviate from your routine.

Suffer the Curse! Stick your scentflaps where you shouldn't, and you may just walk away with an ancient cranial entity haunting your every waking moment! Consult local Necresses, pray to the Nine Goddesses, purchase ritual objects, and rub the giant sword to balance your personal luck favorably! Maybe that will make the whispering stop!

Embark on an anti-adventure! Find a middle ground between your life of menial drudgery and a culture of exciting quests and powerful heroes, and you might finally find a way off Xabran's Rock!
