🧠 First Impressions
Revenge of the Savage Planet wastes no time throwing you into its chaotic, alien sandbox. From the very first moments, you’re bombarded with color, energy, and cheeky humor. I wasn’t sure what to expect going in, but I quickly realized this wasn’t trying to be deep or philosophical—it’s here to entertain, and it does that well.
The vibes immediately reminded me of a mashup between Ratchet & Clank and High on Life—bright worlds, snappy dialogue, and a tongue-in-cheek attitude that doesn’t take itself too seriously. In short: a goofy, vibrant shooter-explorer that had me smiling from the jump.
⚙️ Gameplay & Progression
It’s fast-paced, snappy, and full of satisfying progression. Whether you’re blasting bizarre creatures, scanning flora and fauna, or unlocking gear upgrades, there’s always something to do—and very little downtime.
Combat is fluid and fun, with just enough enemy variety to keep encounters interesting. The platforming is surprisingly responsive, and exploration is consistently rewarding thanks to the game’s generous collectible system.

The upgrade loop hits a great rhythm early on—you’ll constantly be gathering resources to unlock jetpack boosts, grapple abilities, health upgrades, and more. 100% achievement hunting felt organic, not grindy, and I appreciated that the game respected my time while still offering secrets to chase.
🎵 Music, Art, and Atmosphere
The game’s art direction is one of its standout qualities. Every biome is packed with weird, wonderful lifeforms and vibrant environments that walk a fine line between beautiful and grotesque. It’s a visual treat from start to finish, and it never feels visually repetitive.
The soundtrack is subtle but effective, doing its job to support the wacky sci-fi setting without dominating the experience. Environmental sounds and alien creature effects really sell the world—they’re bizarre in the best way.
Overall, the atmosphere feels like a living cartoon—loud, strange, and constantly shifting. It’s fun to just exist in this world.
✍️ Story & Dialogue
The story is light and goofy, which fits the game’s tone perfectly. You’re technically trying to save humanity??? by exploring this alien world—but the narrative is mostly a vehicle for absurd humor and satire.
The real charm comes from the game’s fake commercials, sarcastic AI companions, and corporate parody. Some of the jokes land better than others, but the tone is consistently quirky. If you’re into over-the-top comedy and weird world-building, it’ll likely click with you. If not, you might find it a bit too much.
There’s not much emotional depth or narrative tension—but that’s by design.
✅ Final Verdict
Revenge of the Savage Planet delivers a compact but highly entertaining experience. It’s not a genre-defining title, but it doesn’t have to be—it’s a fun, quirky romp through a vibrant alien world full of strange creatures and satisfying upgrades.
Just be careful as you have to buy the DLC that is available to finish the 100% achievements.
🔥 Clay’s Take
This game had me grinning way more than I expected. Between the smooth progression, absurd alien design, and snappy humor, I had a genuinely fun time from start to finish.
🎯 Final Score: 7/10
👍 Recommended: Yes – For fans of exploration, collectibles, and fast-pased action.
