I would like to say I just went back to this to the beat true final boss. But really I had just beat Hades and I was feeling and itch to return to Revita. Coming back, I had an absolute blast and I absolutely fell in love with this game. Part of my new enjoyment with the game should also be of course attributed all the new relics I now had access to. But mostly the game came together for me in much tighter focus to me. While the player moveset might be simple, the game gains so much depth from its health system. Every choice you make to skip the chance for an item instantly carries so much meaning. Performing well in an area is instantly gratifying because

Stacking on top of the health system, the various different secret choices add so much more flavor to the progression of a run. Instead of simple binary choices like in Isaac, the health system is folded into how you can achieve the different optional routes and colors so much the narrative of a run.

Extraordinary this isn't even the full (2.0.0) release of the game.
