Evaluation

Doorways: Old Prototype is a free-to-play game that was released on October 5, 2016. According to the store description, it is a short prototype built between late 2011 and early 2012, created before the official development of the Doorways saga. The developer explicitly describes it as "an early prototype made to show the main features of the game" — it was never intended to be an ongoing project or receive post-launch content. The launch post on October 5, 2016 confirms the game was simply an archival release: the developer retrieved an old project and made it available on Steam for free. No DLC, expansions, updates, or roadmap were ever announced for this title. All subsequent developer communications focus entirely on other projects — Hellbound, The Black Heart, Out of Bounds, and the upcoming Tenebris Somnia — with no mention of any plans for Doorways: Old Prototype. This game launched as a complete, standalone package with no post-launch content cycle, and the developer has never indicated otherwise.
Evidence
Store description explicitly states this is a short prototype built between late 2011 and early 2012, made to show the main features of the game before the Doorways saga began — framed as a historical artifact, not an ongoing project.
