Evaluation
It's A Wipe! launched on Steam on December 11, 2014 as a finished single-player game and received several meaningful updates through its first few years — including a one-year anniversary patch in December 2015 that added player-created raid content, quality-of-life improvements in early 2016, and a third-anniversary patch in December 2017. Throughout this period, the developer (Harry at Parody Games) was also building a spiritual successor called Heroes of Kingspoint, and gradually shifted focus away from It's A Wipe! entirely.
By November 2017, the developer stated explicitly that there were "no real updates to It's A Wipe! in a while" and that the game was "working fine." In June 2018, he confirmed that "a direct sequel is still pending this other game getting done" — meaning any future It's A Wipe! follow-up was contingent on completing a separate project first.
The last meaningful update to the game itself was a Windows 10 compatibility patch in September 2019, which fixed a graphics issue caused by a Windows update. The developer's most recent communication, a Happy New Year post on January 2, 2020, confirmed he was pivoting his efforts toward completing a new game and not returning to It's A Wipe!. He described the 2019 patch as a workaround for a platform-level issue, not a sign of ongoing content development.
There have been no developer communications of any kind since January 2, 2020 — over six years ago. No future content, DLC, or updates have been announced. The store description does not reference any planned additions. The game shipped as a complete product and has been in a maintenance-complete state since at least late 2019.
Evidence
Developer's final communication: wished players a Happy New Year, noted the sixth anniversary of the game, and explained he was refocusing on completing a new separate game (Heroes of Kingspoint). No future content planned for It's A Wipe!.
One-year anniversary patch added player-created raid content, randomized raider options, and several other features — the last major content update to the game.

About this game
A game of fantasy guild management! In It's A Wipe! you assume the role of a guild leader within a fantasy game world. You must recruit other players, lead them to victory against increasingly difficult odds, and make sure that your group remains happy enough to stick with you!
The game is done in a style reminiscent of old school role playing games. While the 'game' within It's A Wipe! is supposed to represent an on-line game world, this is really a single player game. The game play is a mix of strategy, in that you need to figure out an effective plan to beat the encounters, and management, in that you need to balance the various needs and desires of your team of players.
While the game does revolve around trying to win battles to progress, it's not your typical RPG combat. As the leader, you do not directly control your group. You set-up an initial plan, but your group members may decide to go off and do their own thing! You can shout a command at them each turn to try to keep them in line, and do your best to keep them happy with items and by paying attention to their needs.
