did he really abandon this?
It's more "on hold" until Introspurt finishes his main project which is Crimson Keep (and iirc there are a few chapters left in that game before it's finished).

This game was meant to be a quick experiment so Intro could practice coding in Unity and test different mechanics, but a lot of people really liked it. I'm not sure exactly when he'll pick it back up but it won't be any time soon. I think there's three more chapters left in Crimson Keep, and then there's plans to consolidate all chapters into one Unity game before he resumes work on Eld. I haven't been following for too long so I'm not sure of exact timelines or how quickly Intro typically completes chapters, but I'd say we're probably not seeing any new Eld updates for at least a year or two

A year or 2 is probably how much it will take to complete the first Arc, then the compiled version depending on the scope will take (probably) another or more, since earlier chapters will suffer many changes when they get remade in Unity, for example just the first chapter will (probably) have the entire castle map remade and expanded, maids will also (probably) have their designs reworked and there's even the possibility of new content being added to it and to the other chapters.

Only then Eld development may (or not) resume, and before intro even begins working on new content, the game will (probably) suffer a rework to improve on certain things that intro wasn't satisfied with. Only thing that is completely done is the main storyboard.

Quote when someone asked if there was any lore behind the gravestone found in the main hub of the game: "None that you know of... To be more specific, since the story and lore for Eld are basically complete from start to finish, I do know exactly what the lore is. The question is whether I'll ever get around to fleshing out that lore in future updates".

Intro doesn't really have timelines. He can't even predict the release date for the current project that is being worked on (ch. 8) and only gives one when he is absolutely sure the game is really (that is usually after the Alpha test phase is concluded and all major game breaking issues are fixed), and what comes after will depend on what he is more inclined to at that moment.

Am I taking crazy pills, or does it seem pretty weird to say "as soon as that other game's done" as if it's going to happen, considering it looks to have been abandoned for 4 years already and is marked as such?

Luckily, while Introspurt has been radio silent on that thread and his twitter, not so on Discord. His last communication there was on 10-5-25. So while things are slowgoing, nigh-on dormant, at least they are going, and aren't legitimately dead as doornails.

I can assure the other game isn't abandoned at all and is being worked on since the exact moment when this game (Eld) was released.
It's development was interrupted precisely to create this game as a learning project to adapt to a new engine in order to make the transition of the other game (Crimson Keep) to said engine more smooth.


Besides the Abandoned tag in this website doesn't necessarily mean a game is truly abandoned, for exemple if there's no updates for more than 18 months a thread will be marked as such despite the real state of the game.
