'Traveler's Enigma' is a cautionary tale on what happens when hundreds of hours are poured into developing a game built on top of a game engine which is no longer supported by its developer.
It was a precursor to other bigger and more promising adventure-game efforts such as 'Miniature Multiverse', 'Astounding Worlds' and 'Isola' but unlike those it was foolishly assembled to a near-complete form with a program called Adventure Maker - a program which no longer runs on, and cannot export onto, any modern PC desktop while retaining the scripts and addons that were essential to this game project.
Moreover, not only was "Traveler's Enigma' built on a poorly-selected engine, but it was an ill-concieved project from the get-go, with a weirdly convoluted and borderline delusional religious/spiritual plot which I no longer identified with or took seriously by the time I finally and definitively canned the project some time around 2009. Still, it had some neat (for the time, and my capability at that time) pre-rendered 360-degree FMV visuals. I'll try to post some more of the old visual content from the defunct project eventually.

Ads on TriumphantArtists.com and other websites run by Matthew Hornbostel, include banner ads from several networks that allow my sites to generate at least a little income:
Top slot: ComicAd.Net - banner network, focused mostly on various comic and art sites. Unfiltered and unvetted but usually harmless.
Bottom Slot: My own banner network. Mostly my own assorted sites, shops, social feeds. Occasional affiliate links for vendors and cashback programs I've personally used, and confirmed are good.
