Evaluation
Seeker is a free-to-play indie game released on December 31, 2018, made by a solo developer (Sheer Studios) as their first published game. The developer was active through late 2019, shipping two major content updates: Update 2.0 on January 21, 2019 (more stars and world changes) and a "Year Two" update on December 2, 2019 (a new island and difficulty skins). In October 2019, the developer posted to explain a long absence due to finishing college, and confirmed they planned to return to working on the game — which they followed through on with the December 2019 update. The last developer communication of any kind was that December 2, 2019 post. Since then — through June 26, 2026 — there have been no further updates, patches, announcements, or developer posts of any kind. The store description mentions that updates would be free and content would "grow over time," and there was a teaser for multiplayer in January 2019, but neither of these promises led to any further releases after December 2019. Given that over six years have passed since the last developer activity, with no roadmap, no unreleased DLC, and no ongoing communication, the game is best understood as a complete, finished product in the state it reached with the December 2019 update.

About this game
Why I made this game:
I made this game on my free time from school. One day I got home from school and i felt like i was very stressed from learning a new game engine. I wanted to feel like I wasn't stressed so I started to make a game with out any intention of making it public. But, my girlfriend told me i should publish this game as a very special moment in my career of being in the gaming industry. This is my very first game I am proud of and I will build off of this game in future updates. As always, Thank you for playing my first published game.
What this game expresses:
Seeker features a relaxing story where the player can enjoy playing the game without worrying about competition. Seeker is a great singleplayer game where the player can take as much time as possible exploring the island. Content for seeker is going to grow over time through updates. This may be a free game on the store but i feel like this game is full of my passion. The game is for those who want to relax and enjoy a video game that is easy to pick up and fair.
Content:
The content in Seeker includes a very loose story that is suppose to be relaxing and will be meaning full. Seeker is very unique when it comes to the way updates will happen. THEY WILL BE FREE :D. Seeker is my first game and i feel like it should be free because I don't want any gamers out there feel like this game cheated them out of their hard earned cash.
Overview of the game:
Seeker is a stress-relieving game where you can play for the story or seek out adventure and discover the map. Seeker is about a stranded alien named Alfie who needs to find five stars to power up the spaceship. Help Alfie find the stars and get back home! The game is set on an island where Alfie is set up for adventure to gather the stars of power. Alfie is from another solar system and in his solar system the gravity is much more dense than our own. Alfie can use this to fly around the level looking for the stars that are on the ground waiting for him to pick up.
