Starlight Re:Volver Dev Post - Early Access and Gameplay Insights

It’s been amazing to see all the attention and support across Youtube, Twitter, and Tiktok from people who resonate with our art style and game direction. We set out to create Starlight Re:Volver as an immersive and fun experience where we could spend quality time with our friends — and we are dedicated to seeing it come to life!

[h3]“Roguelite vs RPG?”[/h3]
Our combat loop is a 1-4 player co-op roguelite but our greater game is largely inspired by other genres that we grew up playing and adoring such as RPGs and social games (Gaia Online, Club Penguin, Maplestory, etc), and a shonen anime-inspired art style! In our gameplay, we have 2 distinct features that are unique to our game amongst other releases in this genre.

1. Town MMO hub supporting dozens of players per server where you can spend time in with friends doing social minigame activities, interact with others, crafting, etc.
   
2. Roguelites are typically associated with being dark and intense. We instead are bringing a fresh and vibrant take on combat engagements that make them feel like a magical party!
   

We'll be making community announcements here regularly so follow along to be the first to hear of playtesting opportunities, early access release scheduling, and gameplay updates!
