Evaluation

The Troma Project is a completed, self-contained game that was originally developed in 2001 and released on Steam on October 28, 2015 as a preserved product. Both the store description and short description make this explicitly clear — the developer describes it as a finished game that was "hidden in the tray" for 15 years and released as-is for Halloween 2015. There is no indication of any post-launch content, updates, DLC, or ongoing development. The single news post on record carries no meaningful development signal. This game launched as a finished product with no post-launch content cycle of any kind.
Evidence
Store description states the game was originally completed in 2001 and never released until now, framing it as a preserved finished product.

About this game

WARNING: Originally completed in the year 2001 this game was never released. It contains extensive swearing, rude language, sex, crime, splatter Horror - everything what was not acceptable for a Video game 15 years ago. If you play this game, please do not take anything too serious.

Welcome to Tromaville!

A beautiful little hellhole where toxic waste, bad taste, mutant violence, cheap heroism, and deeply questionable life choices all leak into the same sewer.

Originally completed in 2001 and unreleased at the time, The Troma Project throws you into the world of Troma and Toxic Mayhem: a turn-based strategy game starring The Toxic Avenger, Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD, and Super Tromette Tiffany Shepis.

The once-peaceful streets of Tromaville have been overrun by vicious Surf-Nazis, turning the town into a blood-soaked battlefield. Behind the chaos lurks a devil-worshipping mega-conglomerate — and only two unlikely heroes are filthy enough to clean up the mess: The Toxic Avenger and Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD.

Across seven chapters full of fun and gore, fight your way from Tromaville to Arabia, Motumbuland, and other strange places around the globe. Collect a filthy pile of Tromatic weapons, drugs, drinks, and other useful — or deeply irresponsible — items. Mix your own drinks, mess around with your inventory, make target shots, blow up cars, and take mission advice from Lloyd Kaufman himself.

Follow the whole deranged mess through full-screen Tromatic movie cutscenes packed with blood, gore, rude language, splatter horror, crime, sex, and all the things that made this game too wrong for its time.

This is not clean nostalgia.

This is not a polished superhero product.

This is Troma: a toxic little strategy-game freakshow from the age of CD-ROM excess — loud, gross, weird, funny, offensive by design, cheap in all the right places, completely unwilling to behave, and still leaking something green after all these years.
