Is this game dead?
It's been awhile since the last update (summer 2020). Is anything happening?

So, sadly, I must lock this. Sorry guys!

The game is released, released games are not dead. They're released.

Having said that, development is still continuing. The next update is adding achievements and reworking some of the essence generation mechanics (as well as the typical small improvements/bug fixes). But thanks to a multitude of life-things from Project Mary (second game), investments, and even COVID, development ground to a halt in 2020. I plan on correcting that in 2021.
What you said got me thinking... with COVID a huge amount of people ended up at home (also) playing games, so the demand went up. But at the same time you devs had to overcome many management problems exactly for the same reason (+ life).

So, all in all, thanks for your efforts and don't mind the occasional troll... :agis:

Oh nice, any details to spare? Is it in the same genre as R2R?

Glad to see that the achievements are still planned. I started to get a bit worried after release 1.0.

Glad to see you still kicking. Looking forward to what's next.

Any plans for Rise to Ruins 2 in the works? :hearteyes:

None what so ever at this time. The next several years are reserved for Project Mary, and if I return to the godlike genre again, it'll likely be a whole new take on the genre and wouldn't make sense to call it "RtR 2" as it'll be misleading. :)

This game is abandoned. While the game is deeply unbalanced and unfinished he just abruptly said this game is done and that's it. I've played every version of it and have around 1000 hours clocked and I appreciate the game providing so many hours, but this doesn't change the fact this game in it's current state is unfinished, unpolished, unoptimised and unbalanced. The game can only be finished in one way — if you rush the corruption from start. Soooo... Yeah. This game is abandoned.
Don't buy it. Dev doesn't seem to require any money anymore.
