In an interview with the Going Indie YouTube channel, John Buckley, community manager for the game, responded to the claim that the game is called a "dead game".


Buckley believes that the game was never designed to be played forever, and that doing so would not make sense for players. If players continue to play the same game, it will reinforce the belief of publishers and developers that more live service games are the future, thereby diluting the market.

"It's not healthy for us, it's not healthy for developers, it's not healthy for gamers, it's not healthy for the games media. It's not healthy for our industry because the more we push this genre, the more big companies will think that gamers want to play live service games."

Buckley said that players should play a wider variety of games, especially independent games, rather than single-type games like "Metamorphosis", so that they can focus more on having fun.


Back in February, Buckley suggested that fans try other games while waiting for content updates for Paloo, and said that the decline in player numbers was not a big problem for them because Paloo is not the kind of game that aims to provide players with new content on a regular basis.
