Evaluation
SKYHILL launched on October 6, 2015 and received post-launch patches adding features and fixes. The most substantial post-launch update arrived on September 8, 2016, adding a new secret ending, cloud saving, a new language, and performance improvements. A minor engine/bug-fix update followed on January 13, 2017. After that, the developer's attention shifted entirely to new projects — first announcing Freaky Awesome in June 2017, then announcing the SKYHILL sequel, SKYHILL: Black Mist, in April 2019, which launched on May 28, 2020. There have been no updates, announcements, or developer communications about the original SKYHILL since January 13, 2017. No DLC was ever released or announced for this game. The store description describes a complete, self-contained roguelike experience with no mention of planned additions. The game launched as a finished product and received only a handful of post-launch patches before the developer moved on. All evidence points to SKYHILL being a complete, standalone game with no further content planned.

About this game
World War III was one cruel tragedy, at least for the others. You seemed to have a quite nice time, hidden in your fancy penthouse at the Skyhill Hotel... Till the impact of a bio-weapon blew away the life you once knew.
Now there are mutants everywhere, and they're eager to rip you to shreds with their vicious claws. But they aren't your only problem: Your supplies are running out. You have to leave your luxurious penthouse and search for food. Walking through the skyscraper means going through hell. There is danger around every corner and death is a steady companion. But seriously, how would someone prepare for something like this?
It doesn't matter anymore. Nothing matters but survival. And time is running out.
