Evaluation
Ludus launched on February 20, 2020. The developer posted an announcement on February 5, 2020 and a launch post on February 20, 2020 — and that was the last official communication specifically about Ludus. There are no DLC listings, no roadmaps, no post-launch update announcements, and no developer statements promising future content for this game. The only other news post from Cheesecake Dev in the scanned history (January 7, 2022) is an announcement for a completely different game, Internet Cafe Simulator 2, indicating the studio's attention had moved on. The store description contains no mentions of planned updates, seasons, or additional content. Ludus appears to have shipped as a finished, standalone product with no post-launch content cycle.
Evidence
Cheesecake Dev announced the launch of an entirely separate game (Internet Cafe Simulator 2), with no mention of Ludus or any planned updates to it.
Developer published a launch post for Ludus on release day. This is the last official communication about the game itself.
