Revita is the new project developed by BenStar aka Benjamin Kiefer. Published by Dear Villagers, the new game is set to release for PC via Steam in 2021. The first full trailer of the fast-paced twin-stick roguelike platformer has just been released today, as well as information about the Early Access version.

Some people spend their time playing games in the genres they love, I prefer to make them! This game is a love letter to action platformers, roguelites, twin-stick games and the people who play them,” said Benjamin.

As the title says, Revita is a twin-stick roguelite where players must climb an ominous clock tower through a series of procedural encounter rooms and past challenging boss fights on their way to reclaiming their lost memory.

Since this is a roguelite, players will be able to trade health for randomized upgrades as they progress through the clock tower. Naturally, each run is unique, as players will have to battle through an almost infinite variety of combat encounters in procedurally generated rooms.

And for those who love customizing their character, Revita promises endless character builds as players will find power-ups and powerful items on each run. More importantly, the game offers players a massive set of option that lets them tweak Revita to their playstyle, such as slow downtime, set an outline color for enemies to make them easier to track or choose the level of aim assist that feel right.

Story-wise, players will step into the shoes of a nameless child with no memories who awakens in a mysterious clock tower that's connected by a metro system, hoping to find answers at the top. Explore the underground subway line infested with monsters filled with colorful characters who will help you on your journey.

Revita will enter Steam Early Access in March, but twin-stick shooter fans can already wishlist the game on Steam.
