So, @redessencegames.bsky.social and specifically @nikhagialas.bsky.social and Arman are lovely. Before Traveler's Refrain, they were working under the title Mask of Semblance. We met them several years ago on the floor at #PAXEast and took them out for a drink after the show. So happy to see this!

We saw @essenger.bsky.social , our lead voice actor, perform last night! Ever since my wife and I first saw him perform back in 2022, we were blown away by his music and his presence on stage — I couldn’t believe he could get up there by himself and do what he did in front of a crowd. 🧵

I wanted to honor my Cat Oscar This little guy was with me every step of the way during development on Traveler’s Refrain, and sadly he passed away last year. I wanted to honor him by getting him in the game. I miss him but I hope you can enjoy a piece of him! #indiegame #gamedev #gaming #cats

Found our first website review! “Traveler’s Refrain” is a memorable and moving experience. It’s a game that demonstrates the power of video games as a medium for artistic expression, and it’s a must-play for those seeking a narrative-driven action-RPG with a unique and captivating atmosphere.
