I did think about that for quite a while before the launch, and in fact, I still think I should have published it as version 0.1 instead of 1.0. My reasoning for it ending up as 1.0 is that it contains the content from the past creator (which is the foundation I am building upon). Likewise, the passages that have "under development" are there for two reasons: 1- The previous creator did not create more content for them, or it was content that, in my opinion, was not hot enough. 2- To let the player know that there is nothing more to explore in that place and so they wouldn't waste their time trying to trigger some event there at a certain corruption level.
I work in video game industry, we would never put a game 1.0 if it has so many "under development".

And in your game, almost every screen has one, it's really annoying to download a 1.0 when each time I click somewhere I'm facing "under development". When a feature isn't ready, just hide it, you can always share a roadmap with all future content, this will still be raising expectations, without getting the player frustrated to face barriers half the time.

The truth is, I'm new to this and I don't work in video game industry, I'm just an ordinary person., so I'm pretty clueless about what can be called V 1.0 or not. Regarding "under development," well, as I said before, it was how I wanted to let the player know that there weren't any more scenes in that area at the moment. Maybe I should have worded it differently. Obviously, I want to keep updating the game and filling in all the "under development" sections. I apologize to everyone if "V 1.0" made you think it was a finished version of the game.

I would have liked to release the finished game directly, with absolutely all the content I had planned, but it would have taken me much longer to be able to share what I've already published, and I can't guarantee that a "finished" version wouldn't have had many bugs, and I also wanted to know if anyone might like what I've done so far. Another reason was that I didn't want to release it with a file size larger than 1GB.

I ask for your patience because I am also learning while making the game, researching everything I don't know how to do, and going through trial and error, checking everything and trying not to miss anything that would break the game or cause the player to get stuck at a point in the story.

Well it is easy fix than :), just rename this post to version 0.1 or 0.01 depends how regulary you plan to update. Once again good luck on the development and hope you will continue longer then previous developer. :)

Yeah no worry, sorry maybe I was a little harsh in my messages, english isn't my native language ^^' I have no problem with uploading an ongoing game, I'm just trying to explain the things I've learned with time, good luck on the development.

Also, if you want to keep the "under development", maybe you could move them to the roots of the areas ? Intead of having us click on them to only see this. For example "Radio Chack - Under development", this way it will be easier for the player to know what he can and can't do for now
