Thanks dude! Lots of noise on Reddit for sure, but also some solid advice if you can sift through the bad faith takes. This trailer is a lot better than my first attempt thanks to some of their suggestions.

Interview with the creator of Rune Song We spoke with Jesse Luciani about his upcoming indie game, Rune Song.

Did a fun little interview with @retrogamingpappa.bsky.social over at Spillhistorie! We talked about life as an indie developer, my upcoming release, and favorite childhood games! Thanks so much for having me!

Even if that’s the case, it’s still gotta get done and coincidentally is the best way to improve on your skillset. Keep going πŸ‘

Thank you for the love! The writing is hit or miss for people so I’m really glad it worked for you! If you have the time, it would be so helpful if you dropped a review on our Steam page but above all, thank you for playing! πŸ™
