Resonance Games

07/25/2025

The team just got back from this past week, and it was an absolute blast!

💪 It wasn't easy, mind you. The team was hard at work up until the event to get everything ready for the build - and there may have been some late night hotel-driven development going on.
⚙️ But like all good things, it all seemed to click together in the end~

✨ The event, sponsored by Interactive Arts Alberta - was the biggest showcasing of our games that we've had the pleasure of attending.
🎮 We received over 150 play-testers across both games, and of course learned a whole lot which we can now take into the development of both titles.

💕 Our booth-neighbours were also incredible - and it was a treat to share the space with them and try out their games.

Overall a positive experience, and we can't wait to come back next year!

PS: Want to give a huge shout out to the Resonance team members and friends who helped support, organize and run the booth - couldn't have done it without you!

We're excited to announce that over the past weekend at , Keyboard Quest: Resonance Games' first title, is available for Steam Wishlisting NOW!

👉 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3874920/Keyboard_Quest

The best part? 👀
It'll be FREE on launch, so there's no better time to play our first micro-game project and let us know what you think!

🛡️ ⌨️ Keyboard Quest was described to play-testers during the event as "Typing Defence", and that seems as suitable a title as any as you protect Princess Tilda across her quest to recover the ancient Runekeys~

We would be over the moon if you were to wishlist the game and share it among your peers, friends and family. Meanwhile, we're still going to be tinkering away up until, and after, its release date.

Stay tuned for more! 🎶

Use your keyboard to assist Princess Tilda in her quest to retrieve the ancient Runekeys. Discover various keyboard-themed foes, cast spells and vibe along to some incredibly catchy tunes in this short but sweet project from Resonance Games!

Hey Resonance Games community!
We're so back. 🎶

Today we're excited to announce that Resonance Games (and it's spiffy new cooperative logo) is attending this year and we couldn't be more excited!

In addition to showing off 'Rhythm in You', which has gone through some big changes since you've last seen it, we've got an exciting new project to showcase. Could it have anything to do with that adorable purple-clad princess in the promotional? Perhaps. 👀

Regardless, Interactive Alberta and K-Days have put together an amazing event, and we've got a spot from July 18th till the 20th. So check it out if you're in the area, and we hope to see you there! 💖

And don't worry - there's a fun keyboard-sized surprise just around the corner for everyone else. Stay tuned. ⌨️

Hey Resonance Games community! 🥳

We've been busy getting the 0.11 build ready to launch, and today we're here to share some of the updates that you can expect when you play the newest build.

We've improved many aspects of the game to give players a better experience with this update. Some of these changes include a complete revamp of our Z-Depth movement systems, updated effects and visuals in combat as well as proper pause-menu funcionality and the ability to change the audio levels.

We've also updated a lot of the 2D sprites in-game - as they weren't rendering quite as crisp as we would have liked, and we've included more cinematics as well as the ability to skip them! 🎬

All in all, it's a substantial update from the 0.10 build - and we look forward to receiving the feedback not only from those who've played, but those joining fresh!

If you want to leave feedback, you can join our discord channel - and be sure to share with any friends you think would enjoy 'Rhythm in You'! 🙌

We noticed a fun trend happening over on Twitter (X) - and thought we'd jump in!
If you want to follow us over there - you can find the link down below. 👇

When we started 'Rhythm in You' in 2020, there were certainly games that had inspired us to make that leap into independent development. 👀

Since then, there have been games released and played that have further stoked the furnaces of creativity for our team! These images display a past and present of inspirations for Resonance Games and our project. If you love any of them, we think you'll find something in our Rhythm-RPG to love too~ 🎶

We're getting closer to the launch of our 0.11 build. We hope you'll be inspired by it when we release it, so be sure to stay tuned to find out more! 😉

Today we wish Resonance Games a Happy 4th Birthday! 🎂

Well... we're a little late for the party, as we typically celebrate Resonance's birthday on May 1st - but with everything going on - we here at Resonance Games are happy to consider this a full-on happy birthday month~🥳

In 2020, Resonance Games was registered as a business with the BC government of Canada. Now in 2024, nearly 4-years-later to the day, we're a fully incorporated workers' cooperative and going strong! 💪

Our team has grown from a few friends helping out on a side-project, to a group of over 10+ developers, many of which have worked with Resonance Games for 3 or more years. 🎮

You may also notice the incredible artwork done by our concept artist, Barret Frymire ( on Instagram). We're actively developing it to launch alongside newer builds, acting as a nice new splash-art piece, and wanted to showcase it today! 🎨

We couldn't have done this without our team of developers, the support of our friends and family, and YOU: the community that interacts with us on posts just like these. We can't wait to see where we're at in another four years, and we hope you'll stick around for the ride...

We just posted a long-form devblog on itch.io! Within, we go into detail on the updates regarding our upcoming build as well as our studio-journey this past April. 💪

Our post earlier this week was all about our incorporation as a cooperative - but if you want all the juicy details, be sure to check out this update - you won't regret it.

https://resonancegames.itch.io/rhythm-in-you/devlog/724600/resonance-games-may-update-coops-and-011

We'll be dropping more updates related to our upcoming 0.11 build in the coming weeks - and hopefully even more good news after that! 🙌

Thank you to our community, friends and families for tagging along on this wild ride. Let's all see where the music takes us~ 🎶

Hello Resonance Games fans and itch community. I'm back, and with a pretty big studio update! It's been a bit of time since I did an update here, but with everything that happened in April, it felt li...

Hey there, Resonance community - it's been a minute!

Less to say, the last couple weeks have made busy bees of us here at Resonance Games... 🐝
..or should I say "Resonance Games Cooperative"?
That's right, we have officially incorporated! As of April, we are now legally Resonance Games Cooperative; though don't worry, you can still call us Resonance Games~ 😉

When looking at the options, it was an easy decision for us to become a workers cooperative. It seamlessly fit in with all our values and beliefs, and we believe it's a no-brainer for the creative work we do as a game studio. 🎨

But that's not all! The reason we finally pulled the trigger on incorporation was simple: Resonance Games is now actively seeking funding for 'Rhythm in You'! We won't go into details in this post, but we have reached out to multiple publishers and are actively engaged with applying to alternative funding options as well. 💸

We hope we can share good news sooner than later, but it's a challenging process, especially in the industry's current state. That said, we here at Resonance Games are dedicated to not only getting our game finished, but to prove that business can be done better.

That's all for now - but with this last hurdle of work overcome, we will be getting back to a regular cadence of posts. Stay tuned~ 🎶
