Naughty Dog officially confirmed the cancellation of The Last of Us Online in December 2023.

Eternal Life of Goldman is part of a growing trend of beautifully hand-drawn games, especially common in side-scrolling platformers. Hollow Knight is a prime example, with its handcrafted art style creating a consistently haunting atmosphere in both the original game and its sequel, Silksong.

Even Disney Illusion Island, featuring Mickey Mouse and friends in a large Metroidvania world, employs a similar art style to Disney’s recent animated series.

It’s been a long road to finally release this game, especially for the small team behind it. They first showed it off in the summer of 2020, and fans have been eagerly awaiting updates ever since.

The game gained even more attention in 2022 when it was featured in an Annapurna Interactive showcase. Despite the long wait, excitement has stayed strong, as Annapurna Interactive has a reputation for publishing unique, high-quality games that often become beloved favorites.
