Evaluation
Holy Potatoes! What the Hell?! launched on October 13, 2017. After launch, Daylight Studios issued a crash fix on October 14, 2017, added Razer Chroma keyboard support on November 3, 2017, fixed another crash bug on May 31, 2018, and added German language localization on June 14, 2018. That localization update is the last communication directly about this game. From mid-2018 onward, the studio's attention visibly shifted to their next title, Holy Potatoes! A Spy Story?!, which was announced in April 2018, entered beta in August 2018, and launched in November 2018. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content for this game, and no roadmap or developer statement indicating further updates are planned. The game appears to have shipped as a self-contained, complete product, with post-launch activity limited to bug fixes and a localization addition. The last developer communication about this game was on June 14, 2018, and no content updates have followed in the years since.
Evidence
German language localization added — the final update made to this game. No further content or updates have been posted since.
Developer's next game, Holy Potatoes! A Spy Story?!, launched on Steam — studio focus had moved entirely to this new title by late 2018.

About this game
Holy Potatoes! What the Hell?! is a whacky hell-themed cooking management sim where you take on the role of a chef in an Afterlife populated by potatoes! Sort potato sinners into cooking stations to extract sinfully delicious ingredients, cook up incredible potato-based recipes, and appease the gods in your Pantheon by serving them savory spud dishes!
Play as Sweeny Tots, a potato chef in the Afterlife determined to find out what happened in his previous life as he works to ascend to heaven. Having no recollection of your life before, you appear in hell, late for your first day of work. After a brief and rather vague explanation, you are thrown into the kitchen and must adapt to your new job - sorting potato sinners into their rightful stations and cooking up delicious, tantalising dishes befitting the Gods!
Meet pop-culture sinners such as Mealificent, St Reaper, and Sephiroot and mythological gods such as Loki, Persephone and Osiris while spiraling down the nine circles of hell!
Punish potato sinners by sorting them into your desired cooking stations and wait for them to get mashed, baked, boiled and fried. In your quest to appease the gods and ascend to heaven, you have to cook up mouth-watering, delectable, and appetizing dishes to feed the hungry deities of Holy Potatoes! What the Hell?!
