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!

Traveler's Refrain #Review

Traveler’s Refrain is an excellent action-adventure game that reminds me of Ocarina of Time. Takes 16 hours to complete, and it has a few missable achievements.

An amazing review written by The Pixel Post! Our English speaking audience might need to translate this one, but it’s worth the read!

The Pixel Post @thepixelpost.com · Apr 26

Si @zalifalcam.thepixelpost.com a apprécié découvrir Traveler's Refrain, le premier jeu de @redessencegames.bsky.social, il a encore plus hâte de découvrir leur prochain jeu :

Traveler's Refrain - Attention, ça va barder

Action RPG axé sur la narration et la musique, Traveler's Refrain ne brille pas par son originalité, mais reste un voyage absolument charmant.

I knew that we HAD to cast him as our own solo artist character, Traveler! Go check out ESS’s awesome music, and his deep and melancholy voice in Traveler’s Refrain!

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!
