Evaluation
Faded Grey is a short (15–30 minute) walking-exploration game that was always intended as a promotional experience for a larger project. The store description explicitly states: "Faded Grey is a short promo game with the intention of piquing interest in a bigger project called Gate to Site 8." That bigger project — Gate to Site 8 — was announced on September 7, 2021 and released on September 10, 2021, fulfilling the stated purpose of Faded Grey entirely. The developer's post-launch communications were solely about the Gate to Site 8 release. There is no indication of any planned additions, updates, or further development for Faded Grey itself. The game launched as a self-contained, finished product and has remained so.
Evidence
Developer confirms Gate to Site 8 is now available, thanks players of Faded Grey for their support. No mention of any further updates to Faded Grey.
Store description explicitly describes Faded Grey as a short promo game intended to build interest in Gate to Site 8, a separate larger project. The game is designed to be completed in 15–30 minutes.
