We were honored to have NODE: The Last Favor of the Antarii nominated for Best Narrative at Taipei Game Show 2026.
From the beginning, NODE has been a project driven by a single question: what does responsibility mean when there is no one left to take it? The game’s story was shaped slowly, through atmosphere, environmental details, and difficult choices, rather than through exposition or spectacle. Because of this, being recognized in a narrative category carries special significance for our team.
Although we did not receive the award, the nomination itself is something we deeply appreciate. It reflects the care and intention that went into building Toska, writing its systems and characters, and exploring themes of isolation, trust, and sacrifice through interactive storytelling.
We would like to thank the Taipei Game Show team and the judges for the recognition, and to congratulate the winners and fellow nominees. Most importantly, we want to thank everyone who has played the demo, followed the project, and supported NODE so far.
We will continue refining the game with the same care that guided its narrative from the start. There is still more of Toska to uncover, and we look forward to sharing what comes next.
Thank you for being part of this journey!
