Just wanted to announce that Rotting has officially been renamed to "Rotting | The Echoing Legend" and is no longer called "Rotting | A Sonic Creepypasta" (So really just the sub-title was changed)

Details in article as to why this change was made.


So the overall game name has always been Rotting and will remain like that forever, but the sub-title part which was "A Sonic Creepypasta" was added just to emphasize that this is a Sonic fangame (Which it still is). For a while it worked because Rotting's story was shorter and more structured like a creepypasta would be.

Recently though I've started to notice how much the story is evolving in my head and it's making me realize this is more than a short creepypasta now, it's a massive story to tell. So I updated some prologue lore which allowed "The Echoing Legend" to fit with the title, I considered "The Legend Of Rotting" for a while but stuff with "The Legend Of..." in the name is a little overused, so here we are now.

Like I said "Rotting" will remain as the overall name for the game as the entire story has the process of rot implemented in it somewhere.
