This game is currently in the Humble Choice for April 2023, and this is part of my coverage of the bundle. If you are interested in the game and it's before May 2nd, 2023, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.

A twin-stick shooter with a big update coming.

Revita is a solid twin-stick shooter where players will platform and mostly dodge enemy attacks, even getting to a bit of the bullet hell style. Players will navigate through a massive tower earning upgrades and bonuses, as well as purchasing them with their life force. It’s an interesting twist but it feels like the only major thing that stands out here. Though at the core is a solid and interesting title with tons of secrets and unlockables.

After the first hour, I’m still unlocking functionality, so it’s not clear how much more there is, though there’s still a lot of room in the base. One issue I find is that the upgrades so far don’t feel that amazing, every item feels like a safe bet in another game, and nothing stands out that much yet.

Pick this up if you need another rogue-lite, I keep saying this and it’s still true. This is interesting, though there is a rather major upgrade on the horizon, something the developer has called 2.0, and if you want to try that out it’s already on the beta branch, but after trying that out for 10 minutes it feels better but it won’t completely change the game, mostly fixing up major complaints and issues the fan base has had.
