We hope everybody's doing well and is safe. Please, take care of yourself and your loved ones in these difficult times.
You may know, that we are working hard on 1.0 but we can't say a word about it... YET. You can't imagine how much of a struggle it is to keep our mouth shut about all the cool stuff coming in this update like al... WHOOPS, almost spilled the beans there.
Let's talk about something else instead. Revita has celebrated its
first anniversary! ✨
On this special occasion, some of you shared cute memories about it and said very kind words about the game. Knowing that you made a lot of friends and that you're having a lot of fun time thanks to Revita makes us feel very appreciated! March 3rd certainly was an emotional day!
Other news: we are now on
Tiktok! It's time to reach new audiences! On this app, we are posting funny videos and whatever else we can come up with to bring Revita to new audiences. The Tiktok audience has a lot of catching up to do afterall
So if you want to watch cute content and IRL videos, you should follow us there! It will help us to reach more people before the release of 1.0 and maybe even make you laugh.
We are also working on
Revita's subreddit, that some people in the community had created a year ago (thank you Maddy & Dig and Hide! 💙).
Let's spread the word about those two new social medias, so everybody can choose their favorite to follow Revita's journey!
It's easy to get hyperbolic when you've hit a major milestone like Revita’s first anniversary.
I could easily fill this entry with the detailed exploits of how this team and this project kept me going through the worst of the pandemic. I mean, of course, I could; these types of bombastic truths are always easy to tell.
Unfortunately, they detract from the sparkling little details a broad brush can often miss.
Over the last year, Revita has been a platform for processing the inevitable outcome of my Mom’s illness, my love of books, politics, even my opinions on leg day. Our regular meetings and interactions quickly became forums for indoor adventurers to share art and ideas, movies, memes, and inspirations. Most of all, it's been a way to reach others, no matter their location or walk of life. That's a lot to accomplish in a number as small as 365.
I can't wait to see what we come up with next...
Hey friends, I've got good news and bad news!
Good news: The original soundtrack for Revita is now finally complete! \o/
Bad news: The original soundtrack for Revita is now finally complete. :(
Revita has been the first game that I've been hired on to write music for, all the way back in 2017. It is thanks to Revita that I'm now very close to writing music full-time for video games five years later. It is thanks to Revita that I've made many connections and friends along the way. It is thanks to Revita that my composition and mixing skills have improved drastically, because I wanted to do the game justice and prove that it was a good decision to hire me by constantly trying to deliver my absolute A-game. I hope you can hear that in this soundtrack.
For spoiler reasons, I can't talk too much about the new music that's being added for 1.0, but I'd like to give you a few hints. I've reached out to some friends to assist me on a few specific tracks with live instruments. One could say, Revita's soundtrack has been expanded genre-wise. Besides, one of the tunes on the OST is almost 10 minutes long, and that is not a typo. Furthermore, I've worked on an absurd amount of new SFX for 1.0, so you can expect a ton of new content.
Once Revita is at 1.0 soon, you will be able to listen to the soundtrack pretty much everywhere. If you want to support me directly, I highly recommend you check it out on
bandcamp, as nothing helps me nearly as much as this site. My plans are to keep talking about this OST for quite a while in the future, take some of the music apart, make some tutorials, explain some concepts, and things like that. I hope you're looking forward to it! =D
OH AND WOULDN'T IT BE NICE IF THERE WAS A LISTENING PARTY SOME TIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE WHERE YOU CAN ASK ME QUESTIONS REGARDING THE MUSIC?
Love you all,
Chris
