Evaluation
Odallus: The Dark Call launched on July 15, 2015 as a complete, self-contained action/exploration game. After launch, JoyMasher added a free Veteran Mode update on November 18, 2015 — a substantial new game mode with altered content, enemy placements, and difficulty mechanics. They also originally sold cosmetic character skins as DLC. On March 8, 2018, the developer released version 1.1.3, which made all previously paid skins completely free and fixed minor bugs. That was the last developer communication on record. No future content has been announced, no unreleased DLC exists in the store listing, and the game's store page describes a fixed feature set with no mentions of ongoing updates or additional content plans. The game appears to have shipped as a finished product and has received no developer activity since March 8, 2018.
