Evaluation

Stonefly launched on June 1, 2021 as a complete, story-driven action-adventure RPG. Following launch, the developer shipped two post-launch patches: a beta branch update on August 4, 2021, and the "Camp" Patch 1.1 on September 1, 2021. Both updates focused on balancing, quality-of-life improvements, and bug fixes rather than new content. On June 1, 2022 — exactly one year after launch — Flight School Studio announced a Kickstarter campaign for a physical art book celebrating the game, which is a merchandise project rather than a signal of continued game development. There have been no news posts since June 2022, no DLC has been released or announced, and the store page describes a complete, self-contained story with no mention of future content or expansions. The game launched as a finished narrative product and received polish updates in the months after release. Development concluded with the Camp patch in September 2021.

Evidence

Camp Patch 1.1 released — the final post-launch update, addressing balance, UI, and gameplay issues. No new content added.

About this game

Discover the Unexpected World of Stonefly

Stonefly is an action-adventure RPG in which you pilot a tiny robot mech in a magical forest. Hop along rocks and leafy canopies while you upgrade your rig with an arsenal of air and wind abilities. Follow the journey of Annika Stonefly as she attempts to recover a stolen family heirloom, strategically battling bugs and critters across an epic story.

A New Way to Move

The mechs in Stonefly are unlike any machine you’ve piloted before. Flip what you know about games and spend most of your time gliding instead of walking. This allows you to traverse a variety of terrain and avoid the dangerous bugs that crawl around below you.

Harness the Wind

Invent abilities that empower you in unique king-of-the-hill style combat centered on using wind to push bugs out of the arena. Each bug has its own behavior and requires a different strategy to defeat. The more efficient you are at dealing with bugs, the faster you will gather precious minerals used to upgrade your mech.

Vibes & Visuals

Stonefly is set to a backdrop of beautiful colors and the techno-nature music of Natureboy Flako. Forge relationships with memorable characters from the Acorn Corps, a band of castaway mech pilots. Adventure through leafy autumn canopies, prickly briars, and misty marshes.
