'''Renevant''' is a [[Update 2.0|2.0]]/[[Update 2.1|2.1]] Extreme Demon level by nikrodox, verified by [[rori]] on 9 November 2019.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y8kBw8YxO8</ref> The level is the third instalment of the Dedication Series, the sequel to [[Allegiance]] and the prequel to [[Anathema]]. Its predecessor has similar gameplay and decoration, but Renevant offers more obscure visibility, notably improved details, and tougher timings and tight spots. According to [[EndLevel]], his version was easily harder than [[Bloodlust]], the hardest-rated Demon at the time.

Renevant was well received by the community, with most of its victors calling it one of the most consistent Demons on the [[Geometry Dash Demonlist|Demonlist]] at the time.

==History==
Renevant was initially set to be verified by EndLevel but was given to Aquiver after he dropped the level. After Aquiver claimed to have verified the level without a recording, he passed it on to [[Wooshi]] to reverify. However, Wooshi dropped the level due to stress and subsequently gave the verification to rori, who made short work of the level despite a 98% fail on the last jump three days before its verification.<ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZBtp5P3kSA</ref>

==Description==
The gameplay is similar to Allegiance's, albeit significantly harder. Renevant begins with a half-speed cube section with a few spikes, followed by a memory/timing cube segment. After the cube part, there is a ship sequence where most of the level is obscured in darkness, making it harder. There are lots of straight-flying as well. Next is a short ball, during which most of the level is again blocked from view. After the ball, there is a tight wave. The wave does not require much spamming but is very tight, barely fitting through the spaces.

After the wave segment, there is a short, easy transition to a UFO, then the drop. The drop is extremely difficult. Many sections of this part obscure the player's view, making it even tougher. There are frequent portal and speed changes, although most of the drop is fast-paced. There are also lots of straight-flying and wave spamming. After the drop, there is an extremely tight swing copter section, a wave spam section and a straight-fly segment. Finally, the level ends with a half-speed double-spike and a normal-speed triple-spike.

==Trivia==
*Renevant was rated on 18 December 2019 and placed at #4 on the Demonlist on 28 December 2019, above Bloodlust and below [[Crimson Planet]].
**This addition pushed EnvY into the Extended List and Matilda the Machine into the Legacy List.
***Renevant swapped with [[Cognition]], pushing the latter out of the Top 5 on 16 April 2020.
*Aquiver was going to verify Renevant, but EndLevel took over. EndLevel, however, gave up on it since he did not want to steal [[knobbelboy|knobbelboy's]] fame for verifying Bloodlust and gave it back to Aquiver.
*Aquiver supposedly verified Renevant without recording.
*Renevant, along with its song, 'Grim Grinning Ghosts', follows the theme of revenants, a term describing someone who returns to life after death.
**The theme song for the ''Haunted Mansion'' franchise and its attractions at Disney theme parks. It was composed by Buddy Baker, with lyrics written by Xavier Atencio. Its melody has been adapted for numerous uses since its composition in the late 1960s.
*The level's name is misspelt; nikrodox stated this to be intentional, as he believes it to 'roll off the tongue better [and be] more unique and recognizable.'
*Prior to Renevant falling into the Legacy List, it briefly held the record for the most victors of any level still in the Demonlist's Top 150 after the previous record holder, [[Cognition]], fell into the Legacy List, with 891 recorded completions on the Demonlist website.<ref>https://pointercrate.com/demonlist/permalink/239/</ref>
*The placement of Dualist on 21 April 2026 pushed Renevant into the Legacy List of the Demonlist after six years.
