Game
Echoes of the Village




1 month ago

Hello, all. It's been a while.

I've been on and off working on a project with characters designed since 2020.

The scope of the game has varied through the years of trial and error, but here's to hoping I can finally push myself for my first actual game.


From the beginning:

Echoes from the Village has gone through many, MANY iterations as I tried to discover what the game actually is and what it was trying to become.

Eventually I came to the idea of not making the game as huge of a scope as I would have liked it to be and got to work in writing a full visual novel with some slight resource management.

SO WHAT IS THIS GAME?

Echoes from the Village is a horror mystery visual novel where you play as a journalist visiting a rural village in the early 200x time period. A murder had happened during your visit and you are greeted by a power from beyond. As time passes, your character questions more and more about reality as you are sent through loops in time to not only solve the murder, but also save the world from a being beyond the powers that even these supernatural beings can stop.

With these time loops, you spend time with certain characters and learn about them in hopes that someone knows anything about the mystery, but you also must manage your own mental health and your reputation with the town or else seek bad endings.

WHAT'S THE OTHER GAME YOU HAVE?

Echoes of the Village is a full recreation of Silent Echoes from the ground up, but I've decided to leave behind the pixel art style and have made changes to be what the game currently is now.

I'll likely make more updates here than I have previously, but I'm spending more and more time with this project. I hope you get to enjoy what I'm writing, and I hope that this project can be more than just a game. Thank you for your time.

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)
