Evaluation
Plain Sight is a multiplayer arcade game that launched on April 5, 2010. The store description presents a fully-featured product with 13 maps, 5 game modes, and 30 robot upgrades — consistent with a game that shipped as a complete package.
The only notable post-launch developer communication was a March 23, 2015 announcement that servers had been restored and that a sequel, Plain Sight 2, was being planned. However, there is no evidence that Plain Sight 2 ever materialized — the developer went silent after that post, and no further news, updates, or sequel releases have been recorded in the 11+ years since launch. The original game received no DLC, no major updates, and no roadmap. The sequel announcement should be understood as a teaser that never came to fruition, not as evidence of ongoing content development for the original game.
With no post-launch content cycle, no unreleased DLC, and no developer activity since March 23, 2015, Plain Sight is best understood as a complete game that launched finished in 2010. The game remains purchasable on Steam.

About this game
Plain Sight is a multiplayer arcade game about suicidal ninja robots.
Fly through space, leap over planetoids and destroy opponents with your trusty katana.
Killing fellow robots lets you steal their tasty, tasty energy. Packed with spinach-like goodness; energy makes you bigger, stronger, faster and generally more awesome.
Being all big and badass is great, but in this game it doesn’t win you the match. It makes you a target.
To win, you have to convert your energy into points...
How do you do this? Simple. Kill yourself.
Press the button and turn your happy little robot into a vicious ball of enemy-absorbing plasma. The more opponents you take out, the better.
Upgrade your robot, respawn and get stuck in again...
