Evaluation
Earthworms launched on February 23, 2018 as a self-contained point-and-click adventure game. The store description presents a complete narrative experience with a defined cast, setting, and plot — there is no mention of episodic content, seasons, or planned expansions. The only DLC is a soundtrack pack that released on launch day. Following release, the developer posted three bug-fix patches through March 28, 2018, then went silent. No further developer communications, content announcements, or new releases have appeared since March 2018. The game launched as a finished product, and the post-launch activity was limited to routine bug fixing shortly after release.
