Evaluation
Ley Lines is a student thesis project developed by a team at the Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy and released as a free-to-play game on December 5, 2016. The game launched as a complete, self-contained single-player experience with no post-launch content planned.
The developer's last official communication was a patch post on January 8, 2017, which included a meaningful update: the team had officially graduated and were beginning to go their separate ways. They noted that "enough of us are still local for now that we can hopefully keep up basic support into the foreseeable future" — a statement that signals wind-down rather than ongoing development. This was framed as a farewell to the project, with no mention of new content, expansions, or future updates.
The game has no DLC listed, no season pass, no roadmap, and no post-graduation developer communications of any kind. Given the context — a student thesis game, team dispersal confirmed by the developers themselves, and no content updates since January 2017 — the game is complete as originally shipped.
Evidence
Developer announces the team has officially graduated and is dispersing. Remaining members will try to maintain basic support 'into the foreseeable future,' but no new content is mentioned. This is the last known communication from the studio.
Launch announcement for Ley Lines. Framed as the culmination of a student thesis project. No post-launch content roadmap mentioned.

About this game
Ley Lines is a single-player action-adventure puzzle-solving game developed by a team of students at Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy! Thank you so much for taking the time to look at and play our game.
Overview
- You are the last hope of a ruined world, capable of restoring the severed Ley Lines.
- Throughout the ruined temple of Miria's Heart, attune to and master five unique powers, allowing you to alter gravity, slow time, shift space, and much more. Unique puzzles scattered throughout the temple's remains can be overcome in a variety of ways by using and combining your world-bending abilities.
Powers
Gravity Well- Arrows fired while attuned to the Gravity Ley Line can produce spherical wells of potent energy.
- Objects will be drawn to the epicenter of these wells, allowing the player to unblock otherwise impassable barriers, curve the trajectory of her arrows, and even slingshot herself to new heights.
- Arrows fired while attuned to the Bridge Ley Line can produce long platforms of hard light.
- By striking a beginning point and an end point on receptive relics in the environment, the player can cross wide chasms and even break through brittle structures.
- Arrows fired while attuned to the Levitation Ley Line can make receptive relics weightless, and movable at a distance through thought alone.
- By arranging weightless platforms in a series, players can climb to otherwise unreachable locations through levitation alone, or use cleverly placed floating relics in combination with other ley abilities to solve puzzles in unique ways.
- Arrows fired while attuned to the Gravity Ley Line can slow objects to a fraction of their former speed.
- In situations where slowing fast-moving relics individually is not enough, the player can also temporarily slow down all time around her.
- The unbound and corrupted ley energy of the temple causes many objects to move rapidly and randomly. Slowing time is often the only way to bypass these dangerous obstacles.
- Arrows fired while attuned to the Warp Ley Line can transport receptive relics forward in an instant, even bypassing otherwise impermeable barriers.
- The player is also capable of placing a single "warp point" to which she can recall at any time, even if the path behind her has been blocked.
