While testing the Halloween event, something went terribly wrong: for some strange reason, the game would hang on the Loading screen. Fortunately, it was an easy fix and there is even now a feature that will prevent the infinite loading process in favor of just closing the game application to desktop.
In the future, it would be nice to display a friendly message to players about the specific issue the game detects, but for now, this is a simple way to avoid trapping you in the game.
To summarize, the game failed to load during the Spooktober event because of a missing object reference that snuck in during a recent update, and that bug is now squashed and things are back to normal.
Enjoy some Spooky REVO all through October!
You’ve drifted into a sinister space storm far from civilization. Dark ships quickly close in on you. Rescued by a mysterious symbiotic vessel, your only hope of escape is to equip for combat and fight for your life.
REVO is a neon styled and classically inspired space shoot ‘em up with an original, retro fueled synthwave soundtrack. Inspirations include Galaga, TRON, and The Last Starfighter. If you’re a fan of the video arcades and science fiction movies of the early 1980’s, you’ll love this game and find it both familiar and fresh.
