  End of Development – Sales & Clarification

  Hey everyone, I want to clarify a few things regarding Half Alive. While development has officially stopped, the game will remain available on Steam for those who still want to play. To thank you for your support, I’ve decided to keep the game at a discounted price for the next week. If you haven’t had a chance to try it yet, now is a great time. Additionally, I have a Game Design Document (GDD) for a related project on my computer. If and when I have the financial means to develop it, Half Alive may return in a different form, possibly under a new genre. For now, thank you all for being part of this journey—I truly appreciate your support. — Tyro Interactive

  Half Alive Termination

  🛑 Development Update on Half Alive 🛑 Hello Survivors, Today, I need to share a difficult decision with all of you. After almost three years of work and dedication, the development of Half Alive will be coming to an end. Despite my efforts and the recent update, I didn't achieve the success I had hoped for — or, to be completely transparent, any significant success at all. While immediate success isn't the main thing I am looking for, being guided by my passion for game development first, I cannot persist on updating the game and being at loss financially. This isn't a decision made lightly. I've taken the time to reflect on the future of my studio and where I want to go creatively. If I want to grow as a developer and offer you better, more ambitious experiences, I need to challenge myself beyond a low-poly COD Zombies-like formula. I believe that stepping into new territories and exploring more advanced projects is the path forward. I want to thank everyone who supported Half Alive, whether you played, shared feedback, or simply showed interest in the project. Your support has meant the world to me, and I'm genuinely sorry if this news is disappointing. As for the future, I don't have a concrete plan to share just yet, but I felt it was important to be honest and transparent with you. I'll be taking this time to learn, evolve, and hopefully bring something fresh and exciting your way in the near future. Half Alive may return, later, in a few years, under a more developed lore-oriented game, but I don't want to make any promises. Thank you for your understanding and support, it means a lot. — Tyro Interactive
