Great, another one down. Why do I always end up with these games...

A kickstarter would work better than that or just regular paid DLC, since he could just set the target funding, and if it's not met, then he doesn't have to go through with finishing the project.

An unfinished product. But my question is, where did all the money go to, exactly? The money from both the SALES and from the PUBLISHER.
This game has less content than quite a few roguelikes, yet most of those roguelikes had a shoestring budget compared to this.

Localizers? Ports? QA? Huh? They're important, but clearly completing the game should be more critical.

What about first updating the game to ensure it reaches 2.0? Or more importantly, making sure it reached to a similar quality and variety standard other roguelikes had done with a literal shoe string budget. What happened here? What happened to cause this project to detonate before it even made it to the last major update?

Something's wrong here.

Same.
Just makes me wanna make a roguelike and show people how it's done. Man, this sucks, alot.
At least right now I'm making an arcade shootemup instead. Roguelike as a genre seems really rough right now.....

难受啊这个结果,出个2卖都能接受

well.. this sucks. I was waiting for the 2.0 release to play the game.
I agree with a lot of people, start a kickstarter i wouldn't mind dropping some money into it.

I thought the 1.0 was already good enough - gotta try the beta out now!

I know this might be more private info, but did Humble Choice impact sales / costs of the game to its detriment? I've heard mixed things about devs who let their games on Humble Choice.

Good question tbh.

1.0 is still an excellent RL game

The 2.0 Beta (Part 1) changelog is found here

It probably looks like the same game because it's mostly balance changes and bug fixes, only a tiny bit of new content.

The 2.0 Beta (Part 2) was cancelled, as per this post we're discussing on right now. It's what had the real meat and bones of new content, but is no longer coming out. :reonion:

Yeah, mi mistake. I thought part of the 2.0 was in the beta branch. Thanks!

Just charge more for it, or attempt to crowdfund it. I would buy this game again. :csd2smile:

Deeply sorry. Can you please make a localization file so that people can custom translate it though?
The games folder does have all the localization files accessible and they can be opened with a simple text editor =)

Also I want to echo that I appreciate all the support everyone. As I have mentionend below the post, I'll keep trying to push for it even if I am not able to release anything right now. Trust me I am not happy being unable to release what I have been working on all these years, but I sadly can also not just do as I please. Multiple people are involved in a production like that, especially in a published game.
But yes, thank you all for your support and as always, should anything change, you'll be the first to know.
Revita went from completely off my radar, to making it onto my wishlist, to playing 1.0 and liking it, having the 2.0 beta branch release, and then discovering Revita is one of my favorite roguelites. What you and your team have built is really amazing and I will be buying your next game day 1. So sorry for what you all are going through. It's disappointing and disheartening. Please be proud of what you have made. This game is a true gem waiting to be discovered.
