Evaluation

Guns, Gore & Cannoli launched on April 30, 2015 as a complete action platformer set in the Prohibition era. After launch, Rogueside shipped two feature updates: Update v1.1.1 on August 17, 2015 (adding new character skins, cheat codes, and language support) and Update 1.2 on October 19, 2015 (adding a Versus mode with AI). Bug fix patches also shipped in the weeks following launch. After October 2015, all developer communications on this game's Steam page shifted to promoting a separate title — Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef — announced in June 2021 and released in October 2022. There have been no updates, patches, or announcements for Guns, Gore & Cannoli itself since October 2015. The game launched as a self-contained, story-complete product, received its post-launch feature additions through late 2015, and has had no developer communication regarding future content in over a decade. It is a finished product.
