Soundtrack:Original score composed by Ash Gibson Greig, a Perth-based composer brought in as an outside contributor to the five-person core team; director Paul Turbett called the score 'extraordinary'. It has never been released commercially — there is no Steam soundtrack DLC and no album on MusicBrainz, Apple Music, Deezer or Bandcamp (Greig's only released game album is Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector, his other Black Lab project), None of Bear McCreary's music from the TV series is licensed into the game: McCreary is credited nowhere on Wikipedia, the Steam page, Slitherine's site or Black Lab Games' own page. Voice acting was sourced and recorded by Slitherine in Los Angeles

third-party estimates put Steam owners at 200,000-500,000, but that number is inflated by a free-to-keep giveaway in July 2025
steamspy.com

No development budget has ever been disclosed, and no unit or revenue figure exists — checked Wikipedia, Slitherine's game page, Black Lab Games' site and 350 Steam news posts. The SteamSpy owner range of 200,000-500,000 is a third-party estimate AND is inflated: Slitherine gave the game away free-to-keep during its 25th-anniversary sale in July 2025 and separately ran a free weekend, so owners and buyers are not the same population. Hard figures: last listed Steam price $39.99, 4,213 Steam reviews rated Very Positive (84% positive across 3,172 English reviews), and an all-time Steam peak of 2,125 concurrent players — set in April 2023, nearly six years after launch. Indirect evidence of commercial success: eight paid DLC across two full 'Seasons' from December 2017 to September 2020, ports to PS4, Xbox One and Switch, and Slitherine re-commissioning the same studio for Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector. Against that: Slitherine confirmed in September 2020 that 'we don't have plans for another season', and on 15 November 2025 the game and all its DLC were delisted from every storefront with no reason given, though existing owners keep full access.
