Hey everyone,
Wanted to drop a quick update on where things stand with Echoes of the Stars.
The Big Picture:
After years of development, Echoes is approaching a major milestone - the full game experience is coming together. Systems are connecting. Story beats are landing. What was once scattered pieces is becoming a cohesive journey. Early Alpha is on the horizon.
Recent Progress:
🗒️ Quest Journal System - Built out a full journal system so you can track your progress, objectives, and story beats as you play. It's one of those features that seems small until you don't have it.
💬 All Dialogue Imported - Over 50,000 cells of dialogue data are now in the game. Characters have things to say. A lot of things, apparently.
🎬 Cutscene Spine Complete - The narrative backbone is in place. The full story arc from Westwood to Tel'Veroz is now in place.
✨ Polish Pass Beginning - Starting to smooth out the rough edges. UI tweaks, small fixes, making things feel better.
What's Next:
Continuing to push toward alpha. More polish. More combat experience work (gotta get that exp). More testing. More coffee.
I also know the Demo hasn't been updated in awhile. Working on it.
and finally...
A Personal Note From the Dev:
This game has been a labor of love for a long time. It's a mostly solo endeavor... So seeing it finally come together, closer and closer to actually playable as a complete experience is surreal. Thank you for being here. For wishlisting. For believing in this weird, ambitious thing I'm building. It means more than I can say.
