Evaluation

Magicmaker launched on September 22, 2014 and received a steady stream of feature updates and bug fixes through its early years. On April 12, 2021, the developer posted a clear statement: "While we are not actively developing Magicmaker any further, we are committed to fixing bugs as they are reported." This is the developer explicitly confirming that content development for the game is finished. They also revealed that their studio's focus had shifted entirely to their next title, Forever and Ever. The only DLC ever released was a soundtrack pack in February 2015, and no further content has been announced. The game is a complete, finished product. Bug-fix patches may still occasionally appear, but no new content is coming.

Evidence

Developer explicitly states: 'We are not actively developing Magicmaker any further.' Studio focus has moved to their next game, Forever and Ever.

About this game

THE ULTIMATE SPELLCRAFTING/WIZARD-SECURITY-GUARD ADVENTURE

Magicmaker is a spellcrafting-focused platformer dungeon-crawler where you can be the wizard you've always wanted to be!

Literally 2 Million Different Spells to Craft

Magicmaker is powered by an amazing Spellcrafting system that can make nearly anything. Have you ever wanted to shoot poisonous lightning lasers? Throw freezing fireballs? Build turrets that fire waves of miniature suns? Or summon hordes of adorable jelly minions? How about firing lasers that shoot exploding black holes that suck out your enemies' life force? You can totally do that in Magicmaker.

How Do I Make Exploding Laser Black Holes That Steal Souls?

Or any of that other sweet stuff?!

Its super easy.

During your adventure you'll find materials.
Each material has a specific effect, like lifesteal, bouncing off walls, or lighting stuff on fire.
Combine materials to make spells and robes!
45 different materials means there's all kinds of fun interactions and combinations to make.

What kind of wizard will you be? Probably a really cool one, I bet.

The Greatest Adventure of All: Steady Employment

Listen: you're unemployed, you're three months late with the 8999 magic-dollar rent on your wizard apartment, and your highest qualification is a certificate from a 3 week cheesemaking course. If you can't find a job soon, your landlord's gonna kick you out and you'll probably have to go live in a tree or something. But don't worry too much! The World of Magic presents all kinds of opportunities, as long as you're willing to journey to the local temp agency and take whatever career the job placement spell picks for you. And you lucky soul, the job placement spell has decided you'll make an excellent Security Guard!

"A Security Guard??"

That's right! A Security Guard for the illustrious Dörwall Community College, the preeminent wizarding school of the greater Dörwall metropolitan area! Now you can enjoy the many luxuries of employment, such as a magical adventures, the quiet disdain of your co-workers, and a semi-regular paycheck!

LOOK AT ALL THESE BULLETPOINTS

Ya'll love bulletpoints, don't ya? Well feast your eyes on these:

Spellcrafting System that can create over 2 million combinations! I know I said that earlier, but hot dang, that's a huge number.
Robecrafting System for passive effects! That's right, there's 2 million unique combinations here too.
Equip special artifacts with unique powers! Check out these totes ancient and mystical relics.
Total Wizard Customization! Just go ahead and customize the heck out of your wizard. Totally.
Randomly Generated Levels! I mean, this is an indie game in 2014. Isn't that kind of required now?
Charming, colorful paper-craftesque art! There are at least 6 different colors. I counted.

. . .

Okay, I lied. There's actually 2,193,360 different combinations.
