Evaluation
Rym 9000 launched on January 15, 2018 as a self-contained vertical shoot-'em-up with 5 levels and a defined ending. The only DLC ever released was the soundtrack pack, which shipped on launch day. Post-launch developer activity consisted of a small bug fix on January 17, 2018, a gameplay balance patch on February 21, 2018, and a PS4 port announcement on February 25, 2019 — which brought localization, TATE mode, and a reduced-effects mode to the console version. The February 2018 patch notes explicitly state the developer "can't guarantee to work all the feedback into the game" and redirects player suggestions toward "future projects," signaling that Rym 9000 itself is considered complete. There has been no developer communication since February 25, 2019, no unreleased DLC, and no announced future content. The game launched as a finished product and its post-launch activity has been limited to maintenance and a platform port, not new content.
Evidence
Developer patch notes reference keeping player feedback 'for future projects,' indicating Rym 9000 itself is considered a finished product
PS4 port released with quality-of-life improvements (TATE mode, localization, reduced-effects mode). This is the last official communication from the developer.

About this game
Rym 9000 is a vertical shmup in which you fight your way through 5 levels of concentrated action to reach the Moon and find the Rym 9000 treasure; a legendary relic left by an ancient civilization, buried in the Moon for a generation of pilots to find and "turn the world upside down."
With an emphasis on haywire motion and experimental visuals from Sonoshee, along with a cyber-stellar soundtrack from Roex, Rym 9000 will take you on a chaotic trip of challenging but fair hyperkinetic fun.
Achievements are set in place for the player to unlock World Log entries and know more about the world they're venturing into, as well as understanding the history behind the treasure that the protagonist and millions of other pilots are setting out to find.
Fight your way through relentless hordes of enemies, defeat each area's boss all the way up to the Moon's guardian "Diesel", and register your score upon beating the game on a leaderboard that records the top 10 players in the world.
