"I'm not going to say [there's] no chance for future updates. That would be foolish."
Good for him, glad he's found what makes him happy and that he has the freedom to do it.
This guy is living the game dev dream. Built his project that's relatively simple as far as upkeep goes (which is full credit to him for building it that way), a darling in the industry, and he's just independent. He's working on other cool stuff at his own pace with no need to placate any audience or publisher. It's beautiful.
What ever happened to the Chocolatier game he announced?
AFAIK he's still working on it, he just goes at his own pace and takes the occasional detour to fiddle with Stardew Valley a bit more. Which I quite like personally, I'd rather he just takes his time and releases it whenever it's ready.
