Evaluation
PAC-MAN 256 launched on June 21, 2016 and received a handful of updates in its first year: a birthday update in September 2016 adding leaderboard improvements and quality-of-life features, a bug fix patch in December 2016, a holiday update on December 21, 2016 that added three themes ported from the mobile version, and a final minor patch (version 1.10) on March 15, 2017 with small fixes and coin economy tweaks. That March 2017 patch is the last recorded developer communication. No further updates, announcements, roadmaps, or DLC have been listed. The store description makes no mention of planned future content, and there are no unreleased DLC entries. The game launched as a complete product and received a small wave of post-launch polish updates before going quiet. With no outstanding commitments and no developer activity since March 15, 2017, the game is complete.
Evidence
Version 1.10 released with minor fixes and coin economy improvements — the last recorded developer communication for the game.
