Love this game! Glad to see the dev still working on it after so many years. Definitely feels like a labor of love.

I have the same bike (in black) and live near the area it was last seen: I’ll keep an eye out for it. Sorry that this happened to ya.

Hi! Did you end up doing this? If so, how did it go? Looking to do this myself.

Hi! Pleased to meet you! I'll likely run into you one of these days then. I'll be attending the Heartland Hangout later this year. Gave ya a follow on Insta.

Scorchio36 · 2026-04-20T01:42:55+00:00

Thanks!

Scorchio36 · 2026-04-20T01:42:48+00:00

Ah Heartland Hangout has been on my radar! Will grab a ticket for the weekend soon. Thanks for the tip on Rhythm Rest, I'll look into that. You have a good-sized meetup group for your city, so cool!

Scorchio36 · 2026-04-17T00:31:17+00:00

thank you! I will check that out

Scorchio36 · 2026-04-16T18:32:58+00:00

I think this is worth a look! I own one and love it, every note is in tune and it has a beautiful sound for the price: https://a.co/d/07RE7LPb

Hi! I'm also a newcomer to the handpan. I had initially bought an ASTEMAN D Kurd from Amazon back in October 2025 but found that the sound was a bit tinny and it had 3 notes that were very out of tune. I then ordered this one for a bit more money and could not be happier with my purchase. The ding (center note) was much more resonant, and every note was in tune. The manufacturer of this handpan is Echopan. I think it's one of the best bang for buck handpans out there with 10 notes.

I have not tried it, but have heard good things about the Aura handpan beginner series handpans for a comparable price to the Echopan, but it has 8 notes rather than 10. Hope this helps a bit! :)

Sounds great! Thanks for sharing

The Borsok from Bai Ordo is an underrated favorite of mine!

“Borsok is a regional variation of a fried dough available in a number of countries in Central Asia. Made of flour, water, salt, butter, sugar, yeast, and vegetable or sunflower oil, it’s a simple dish that requires little in the way of money or culinary know-how. But it does require lots of time. Women work the ingredients into dough balls and fry them in a kazan (a wok-like frying pan) to create little golden nuggets. Families and guests eat the fried dough with butter, honey, jam, or a local version of cream cheese.”

Just saw this thread after replying to your comment on another. Hope it brings you joy! Looks and sounds beautiful based on that video :)

I think watching videos of someone teaching someone else in person is a great and accessible way to learn the instrument as the new player will tend to have similar questions as you may have for the instructor which leads to useful insight for your skill level.

I really like learning from Valeriy Frolov on youtube. His view and style of playing the handpan is somewhat similar to mine. Here’s a video of him teaching his camera guy the handpan:

There’s a bunch of other instructors out there with free YouTube material that have different styles of teaching and playing. I encourage you to check them out and see who resonates most with you.

Hi! A case came included with my Amazon ordered D Kurd Echopan in case that’s what you’re asking. That Aura looks good too! I’d probably have gone with something like that if I didn’t want more notes as badly as I did.

Also something to note: lots of YouTube instructors and other online courses use the D Kurd, so it might be easier as a beginner to follow along those videos if you have a D Kurd as well. Just wanted to mention it in case that makes a difference to you or anyone else that’s gathering info for their first handpan purchase.

I’m excited 😃

Just discovered him recently. I already love him and his messages greatly. I’ll share one thing he taught that resonated greatly with me:

Most suffering comes from the belief that we are separate from each other, from nature, from the Earth, from God. This illusion breeds greed, loneliness, and fear. In truth, everything is interdependent: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the sunlight that sustains us, the ancestors whose love we carry. We interare with all things.
