Hello and welcome to our official itch.io page!

We are Rivatech Games, the new video game development division of Riva Tech.

Now, if the name "Riva Tech" is new to you, don't worry. You might have known us by another name. Or another. Or... well, another. Since we began this journey back in 2021, we've been on a quest to find the perfect name, and believe me, it has been a wild ride.

Picture this: we've been Winix Techno, Techno Galaxy, and even the futuristic-sounding Dream High Tech. We had a "professional" phase as Problinds and a "celestial" phase with Nova4Blind. We were even Visuallink for a minute there! It's been a journey of identity crisis, to say the least. We like to think of it as our "beta testing" period for names.

But we've finally, finally, stabilized on Riva Tech. We promise. (Probably.)

From Tech Support to Game Development

All jokes aside, through all those name changes, our mission has stayed the same. At our core, we are a tech platform born on WhatsApp and Telegram, dedicated to empowering the blind and visually impaired community here in Algeria and beyond. Through our daily interactions, we've shared solutions, explored new technologies, and built a strong community.

Now, we're taking that passion one step further. We've heard your desire for more games designed from the ground up for the visually impaired, so we decided to make them ourselves. We don't see accessibility as a feature to be added in later; for us, it's the very foundation of everything we build.

What You Can Expect From Our Games

Our goal is to create immersive, audio-first gaming experiences. We're talking about games that are:

  100% Accessible: Designed to be played without any need for visuals. Your ears are your window into the game world.

  Rich in Audio: Featuring high-quality sound effects, spatial audio, and full voice acting to bring stories and environments to life.

  Community-Driven: Developed with direct feedback and testing from you, the members of our community. Your insights are our most valuable asset.

  Intuitive to Control: With simple, easy-to-learn keyboard or controller inputs that don't require sight.

It's where this whole adventure started, and it's where we'll continue to shape the future of Revatech Games together.
