Varia Games’ ReVeN was originally funded on Kickstarter back in 2014. It’s been a long road since then, but the game still isn’t anywhere close to release.

Developer Austin Morgan provided an update on the project’s Kickstarter page this week. In it, he explains that ReVeN won’t be ready until sometime in 2017. This is in part because of time spent making the side-game XBridge (which was last thought to be coming to Wii U in Q1 2015).

The full Kickstarter update reads:

There isn’t much I can say that may reduce the flak we’ll receive at this point, or hateful comments. However I (Austin Morgan) feel it’s necessary to fess up to at least one thing here, and also explain where I’m coming from so you’ll all understand where we are and where we are headed.

The ReVeN Project is pending an undefined release date within 2017. I take full responsibility for starting the side project XBridge and dragging John into it which cost us a lot of time and energy, though it was certainly worth it to us for the skills gained (I can’t emphasize this part enough) and the economic potential of it’s full version release on steam. There are those who absolutely love XBridge and we have a certain fan base that emerged just from that game alone.
