Seems like the sentiment is that this has been abandoned?
Can anybody that owns the game confirm/deny?
All things "Tycoon" games. Park building, zoo building, business building simulation. Anything related to management, financial growth and economic strategy.

FWIW, a reply from the developer to a review bringing up the state of the 1.0 release:
Hey, we understand the frustration, but I just want to note there has been upwards of 30 updates since the initial release, and we are commited to doing more going forward. Given the resources we had available we are doing everything we can to bring the game to it's potential.
The 1.0 release brings the game to a point we think is a unique and enjoyable experience. Expect more tweaks, changes and content going forward.
While I understand the frustrations around rough 1.0 releases, I also do sympathize with developers on this. If you're sales are at ~10K units (and many indie games do a lot less than that), it makes sense to wrap a release that's not getting much traction. Continues support is always nice though.
Another Steam review on this topic:
I've seen a few of the reviews talking about the game being abandoned, which I never quite understood. There was a few months without updates, but often preceded large updates. The game has come a long way since i first got it. Nearer its launch I couldn't stomach more than an hour or two. It was a near concept but just shallow and not very good at drawing you in. Now, years later, I cant get enough. There are still some things to fix, and some ideas that could be better executed. BUT the claims that game game is abandoned are, at this point, completely incorrect. If you are flipping through reviews, please discard any 'abandoned game' reviews. Base it off of the other reviews of pro's and cons.
