Evaluation
Grow Home launched on February 4, 2015 as a self-contained adventure game. In the months following launch, the developer shipped two feature patches — one on February 18, 2015 adding new flora, fauna, a side quest, and a new skin, and another on March 10, 2015 adding cosmetic character skins. The soundtrack was released as a free DLC on March 9, 2015. The final notable update was the SteamOS/Linux version released on November 10, 2015. There have been no developer communications of any kind since November 2015 — over a decade of silence. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content, and no roadmap. The game shipped as a complete, finite experience and all post-launch activity wrapped up by late 2015.
Evidence

About this game
Description
In Grow Home you play as BUD (Botanical Utility Droid), a robot on a mission to save his home planet by harvesting the seeds of a giant alien plant. On his quest BUD will discover a beautiful world of floating islands that are home to some rather strange plants and animals.
Grow the giant plant and use your unique climbing abilities to reach ever higher ground, but be careful…one wrong move and it’s a long way down!
Key Features
Climbing: Procedural animation allows you to move BUD's hands independently, creating a unique and unrestricted climbing experience.
Growing: Guide and ride the giant alien plant as you create your own pathways in the sky. Everything you grow can be climbed on. Use it as a bridge, a safety net, or simply as a tool for artistic expression.
Exploration: Explore every nook and cranny of the alien world as you hunt and collect crystals that can enhance BUD's abilities. It’s a physical playground and many of the alien plants have unusual properties that can help you on your quest.
