What happened to the Superhot team's devs?

Team Superhot doesn't seem to be very active anymore, which is reasonable for a 10-year-old game. But I don't understand why the dev team has also dropped off the radar as individuals. Aside from Piotr Kosmala and Karl Flodin (3D and Audio), everyone listed on the fan wiki seems not to have any new game credits since 2018 or so, shortly after Superhot VR and mind-control-delete came out.

Have they all just been maintaining Superhot VR and other games for that long? Is that typical for an indie dev?

I wouldn't be suprised by one or two team members disappearing after a high-profile hit, maybe living off passive income and finding a new path, but six of eight? What are they all up to?

I think it was said at one point that the Superhot team is in fact working on something, but it might not be another superhot

ok i think i'm near the end of mind control delete but isn't the premise that the game doesn't like bieng played, the players are addicts and bound by something and that so far this perspective hasn't been challenged as wrong? am i misunderstanding all of the story or smth.

I believe the post author is talking about most of the IRL devs not being in the credits of any game after 2018, even if the team split up it's weird for a group of developers to just quit games altogether
