We heard your complaints and valiant demands! This weekend you can RE:connect with NIM and other Divers in our playtest.

Starting May 1st at 8PM EST and ending at 11:59PM EST of May 3rd: this is our last CLOSED (under NDA) playtest…

🗓️ START: May 1, 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET
END: MAY 3, 8:59 PM PT / 11:59 PM ET
Registration details will be posted in our Discord community[discord.gg].


We added some new features, tuned up our So Mi runs with your feedback (from the exit survey… yes that is the important one). Somethings you’re familiar with may have gotten moved around but they haven’t disappeared.

NIM

• interaction points all over the map (go find them and count)
  
• diver-specific dialogue sequences
  
• sign(s) of the time (of day)
  
• fishing UI brand new!
  
• fireworks… are still spam-able don’t worry !

So Mi

• Flip Current (liminal realm between NIM & So Mi biomes)
  
• Re:Fuel system because So Mi runs demand energy. You can also gamble away your fuel for extra run rewards if you’re so inclined…
  
• New shopkeeper I barely even know her!

You can expect a more detailed breakdown to drop in the #patch-notes channel in our Discord before the playtest weekend begins.


If you played in our pre-alpha playtest last month or received a key but never launched, you don’t need to do anything! You already have access to the build which we will publish right before the playtest starts. It starts May 1st at 8PM EST.

If you DO NOT have access to our build from the last playtest, be sure to join our official Starlight Re:Volver Discord server to go through the sign-up process and be put on a waitlist: Starlight Re:Volver Discord[discord.gg]

We will be periodically letting people off the waitlist over the weekend as space allows. Send this to your friend! (I heard if you’re really nice to the Pahdo devs in the discord they can help you get off the list btw)


There will be a variety of events in the Discord including:
