So what's going on exactly, the rumour has it that S2 (devs of the game) is having problems. Recently the answer was given on forums:

Strife is still alive and we have no plans on shutting down. However we have had to come to terms with the fact that Strife has not performed adequately. So with the small team that remains, we have decided to redirect our focus towards other opportunities.

What are the plans for the future of Strife? The answer to that question could be surprising:

One part of our focus is on the release Strife in China. Our partner over there has organized an impressive team around our project and is continuing to work it's way through Beta. With their determination and good luck Strife still might have a chance to be successful. As of now, all of the work we do for Strife is to support their efforts.

What do you guys think about their plans, is it the end of Strife as we know it?
