Evaluation
Never Give Up! is a visual novel that launched on December 29, 2016 as a self-contained story with 12 endings, a fixed cast of romance routes, and a bonus unlockable perspective. The store description presents a complete, finite experience with no mention of additional content, DLC, or expansions. There are no DLC listings for this game. The developer's news posts on this game's page are entirely announcements for other, separate titles in the publisher's catalog (Neuronaut, Succubus Throne, The Heiress of Sorcery, Love, Death & Veggies, Athanasy, and CEIBA) — none of these posts reference updates, patches, or additional content for Never Give Up! itself. The game appears to have launched as a finished product and has remained unchanged since its release date.
Evidence
Store description presents a fully self-contained visual novel with 12 endings, three romance routes, and a bonus unlockable section — no mention of additional content, DLC, or future updates
News post announces the release of CEIBA, a separate game by the same publisher — not an update to Never Give Up!

Someone is killing half-bloods (half-elves, half-humans) in a small city. The police believe that it's nothing more than a regular maniac obsessed with racial purity. But detective Blackwood and magician Silverlight have their own opinion about this case. They think that the killer is a necromancer going after the souls of half-bloods, who wants to use them for some horrible ritual. The protagonist, a young half-blood girl called Mia Silverlight, falls into a whirlpool of events. Will she be able to avoid getting caught by the killer, find true love, and discover the secret her uncle is hiding?
