There were certain features of the game that were required in order to complete the overall experience. These features were not finished which is why there hasn't been a release.
I have been working on much larger commercial projects which has allowed me to grow as a developer. With this experience comes a new perspective on how I can complete these missing features of the game and finally get it out there - to be played by like 20 people (if I'm lucky).
The core gameplay mechanics are the same, the content and assets may differ from what has been posted previosuly; but that is expected with any game in development.
Frankly I had lost all my hopes in this project, good to hear that it's still alive. I know it's hard to get motivation, but rest assured there are a plenty of people who would like to play this game, specially Receiver fans.
I also can't wait to get my hands on a copy of the game. I discovered Relock through the Wolfire Receiver Forums some time in 2013, and I've been following its progress ever since. I'm glad there's gonna be a release, however long it takes.
In addition to what I said above, the steady rise of VR and allowing people to have much more control of weapons in games generally put a mental brick wall up for me while working on this project.
Now that I realise that it's a completely different experience, despite the similarities - Development will continue.
Yes, while they may sound similar, they are different experiences. Also keep in mind that vr isn't that accessible yet for all people.
