What? You mean Sydney? 12 years old + lacking discernment, Chase will basically be acquitted.
The person most qualified to seek revenge is Flynn──the only person who cared about Sydney, but he chose not to do it, even though he had the ability to return to the scene of the crime.
Should Chase be punished? For what? Justice? This is somewhat morally ambiguous. If he were punished, who would be happy? Syd's family doesn't care at all—they didn’t even bother with a simple judicial autopsy, if it really was murder.
i saw i want a modded switch so badly now qwpbut it also makes me wonder sense we have the mig switch now too if someone could just sell third party games
this is my favourite game and top five pieces of media. just ever. and i will gush about it. The character design is amazing, they are written to a tea and the themes are nascar racing right up my alley. the way that the larger portraits are so expressive makes me feel at home and i'm fairly sure stanj did most of them so i'd like to thank the goat for blessing us.
i'm not sure i'll ever be able to get over leo, or tj. especially tj. the heavy theme throught this game that i find is yearning. yearning to go back and fix things, yearning for it to just work, yearning for the people you lost, your childhood innocence. for love. but it remains a pipe dream, something you think about in the small hours of the morning while you cry into your bedsheets pleading for some ounce of relief from the mental stress these fucking pixels put you in and i really like that.
the build up to the floodgates being smashed open and all the anger and heartbreak echo stores being thrust on these characters you love, who feel like real people and the terror of thinking you might have to see one of their corpses on a first playthrough is something no game other than echo has made me feel.
this game will not remove itself from my head and i don't even care, i want it to stay there. when i watch a movie. play another game. listen to a song, i want to think about this game. even though every time i do it feels like 5 years of the worst emotions in the world are crawling up my chest. this game rips open every scab at once in one scene, and gives you loving reasurrance in the next.
and the fucking SOUNDTRACK?? my heart weeps. i would be hard pressed to tell you something bad about echo that is something other than "this game feels like a punishment to my emotions"
in short, it took my three playthroughs to realise carl wears a beanie and not a du-rag and i'm the worlds saddest patheticest bisexual loser
This is the first VN I read and the VN that got me into furry VNs in general, and I have a special place in my heart for it because of that. It really set a standard too :3 love the game, love the horror, just an awesome project in general
I have finished most of the story except for Carl yet... maybe it's because I did TJ's route and got the feeling that his route is the sad one of all the routes. I did Jenna's route then Leo's route, and Flynn's route first, I feel bad for Leo and Flynn in the end. Great Visual Novel I give it a 10/10.
Estoy enamorado de todo en este maldito juego, amo a los personajes, amo el soundtrack, la historia, hubiera amado haberlo jugado antes.
Se me hace muy difícil escribir lo mucho que amo este juego y ni siquiera he terminado todas las rutas y pensar que aun me queda por jugar Arches me emociona muchísimo.
Such a great VN, made me emotional inside, not as much like RTF made me cry but more like a terror feeling which delivered really well...
(SPOILER)
Alright... Just finished 2 routes (TJ and Leo) at first everything seems so slow for me but the buildup was fast around thursday, I'm glad I went to go TJ route first, which then actually gives me a better understanding what the secret means and the one talking inside Chase's mind... Everything was clear and sad at the same time, I was hoping for a good ending for TJ's route but it went waaaaay opposite...
Which got me interested to play another route with Leo and oh boi, it was all sweet at the beginning of his route but everything took a big turn than what I was expecting, I wasn't ready for all the horror it gave and messed up stuffs especially when it revealed the monster, that gave me chills down the spine! The buildup to escaping at the end was great and I was glad to actually got the good ending first try, It was an emotional moment and wished Leo the best, So after, I did the opposite which turns out to be a bad ending and a very sick one... Kinda gave me bad taste of Leo after... Hoping to finish other routes soon
Whats in Echo has a lot of the same characteristics, but I'm not sure if its the same thing.
In Adrastea or Khemia (I forgot which) It is mentioned that the Other leaves patches of itself behind when it moves through an area. So the Echo abnormality could be a patch of the Other, but I'm not sure that was intentional by the writers.
I think the worst part of playing this game was that Ill never be able to experience it with a new perspective again - this wasn't just any experience, this was the best experience I've had in a long time.
From the moment I started this game I didn't put it down, I've never read something so RAW.
I can't wait to replay it many times in the future
Just finished my first play through (TJs route), I am sad, this fucked me upp and I just fucking wish shit went good, man I liked TJ and to have all this bad shit happen to him like two murders infront of him and a bunch of gaslighting and threats from like everyone 😭.
what a masterpiece. one of the best vns ever written, no doubt. the writing is so effective and makes me feel so much for the characters, as well as it makes me really feel their struggles what it'd be like to live through the crazy shit that happens. huge recommend to anyone who likes literature.
Oh my God, this game is just a masterpiece, it’s like you get into the city itself and feel the emotions of the characters, especially Chase. When I was playing this game, I felt worried for all the characters, and in the endings I burst into tears. Echo Project is getting on our nerves, haha.
I would recommend you play it on Friday with a friend who you trust enough to cry around as you will need emotional support and will not be able to sleep after playing it. (that being said, its amazing awesome will mess you up and spit you out)
I've just finished Leo's route with Kudzu and I have to say, this game is beautiful, so tragic, yet so beautiful. The story is so deep and mysterious, and the bounds you can form with the characters go so deep. Truly a masterpiece. A once in a lifetime experience... no matter how long I keep playing this game, or for how long I stop thinking about it after I finish all routes, I wanna remember these stories forever.
You might not see it all with just one go, on the first route that I played, tj, things weren't NEARLY as crazy and scary as Leos route,but that doesn't mean tjs route wasn't good, it really was. Leo's route was definitely more impactful and fucked up
Also I haven't played all routes yet, only tjs and Leo's so there's definitely more fucked up and very possibly worse things. Leo's was enough to fuck me up and make me cry a bunch of times already
For anyone who hasn't noticed it yet, click on the lake in the title!!!!! It shows you all the story parts you've gone through already, and click on the things at the bottom of the lake too, they're interactable and lead to different things, the one on the right leads to the different days of the game and the different days where your choice where different, and it looks like there's some unique stories on chase's section, so yeah, make sure to go see these secrets!

moral of the story:
learn from Supernatural, and burn the body of people you killed so they dont come back and fuck up you relationship

id love to see this on the switch they have mature games on there already and itd be insane if u could pull that off with Nintendo
you can run renpy games on a modded switch, so i guess that could be an option
i saw i want a modded switch so badly now qwpbut it also makes me wonder sense we have the mig switch now too if someone could just sell third party games

This is literally the best game ive ever played, 100%. (slight spoilers? idk)
TJ's route made me cry, fuck, that hurt me. poor thing. Definetely the worst emotionally.
Leo's id say is worse content wise...brian's scene..fucked me up for a minute, that also hurt, but y'know, the good ending is actually very sweet.
Im just starting carl's route, then I'll do flynn's, then jenna's. looking forward to em!
edit: FLYNN OH GOD MY BABY- HIS ONLY CRIME WAS BEING TALL DARK AND HANDSOME NOOOOOO
Estoy enamorado de todo en este maldito juego, amo a los personajes, amo el soundtrack, la historia, hubiera amado haberlo jugado antes.

Gracias Echo proyect.
chase why

Am i allowed to understand something and still dislike it
Cause I like Flynn but...wtf
Edit: Nothing wrong with Twilight Zone Endings, just felt undeserved
Dont date the roommate, he's cute but...
Doesn't turn out like you'd think it would sadly
Before playing this game I hated horror and psychological horror, now im hopelessly addicted to them...
Arches is the sequel. It doesn't take place after any specific rout in Echo, its a sort of stand alone.
Um, sort of?
Whats in Echo has a lot of the same characteristics, but I'm not sure if its the same thing.
In Adrastea or Khemia (I forgot which) It is mentioned that the Other leaves patches of itself behind when it moves through an area. So the Echo abnormality could be a patch of the Other, but I'm not sure that was intentional by the writers.

Just finished my first play through (TJs route), I am sad, this fucked me upp and I just fucking wish shit went good, man I liked TJ and to have all this bad shit happen to him like two murders infront of him and a bunch of gaslighting and threats from like everyone 😭.
played this for halloween and i didnt expect to love these characters so much
i wish good things happened to them and they werent so dysfunctional💔💔💔
Omg we need a sequal 😭
i have something to tell you
what's that?
???
the sequel is arches
I thought arches was a prequel
and I'm talking about a sequel for the characters, like chase, Leo and jenna
I have a question
according to TheEchoProject Wiki it says that Micha is short for Mikhael
does someone know of a source that can confirm or deny that?
what a masterpiece. one of the best vns ever written, no doubt. the writing is so effective and makes me feel so much for the characters, as well as it makes me really feel their struggles what it'd be like to live through the crazy shit that happens. huge recommend to anyone who likes literature.
Just came back to say: best FVN ever created and the Mother of all the other projects that exist (alongside maybe Morenatsu). Gratz
Oh my God, this game is just a masterpiece, it’s like you get into the city itself and feel the emotions of the characters, especially Chase. When I was playing this game, I felt worried for all the characters, and in the endings I burst into tears. Echo Project is getting on our nerves, haha.
Honestly appreciate the warning because my mental health is not doing so great rn. Hope people with better mental health like it, though.
Downloaded the most random game i saw didnt know id have multiple violent emotions playing this game. its damn amazing :3c would recommend
I feel like you can put this in consoles/Switch now
I'm kind of scared to play this vn. Is it really worth the fuss?
Trust me, the horrors are worth it
You are right to be scared, this one is a RIDE, but really really worth
I would recommend you play it on Friday with a friend who you trust enough to cry around as you will need emotional support and will not be able to sleep after playing it. (that being said, its amazing awesome will mess you up and spit you out)

Dude are you ok lol. Is it really that powerful
No im not ok and yes it is
You might not see it all with just one go, on the first route that I played, tj, things weren't NEARLY as crazy and scary as Leos route,but that doesn't mean tjs route wasn't good, it really was. Leo's route was definitely more impactful and fucked up

But trust me, all the emotional trauma this game gave me was worth it in the end
your comments are the realist thing ever oml. Like i feel as if you expressed my exact thoughts and emotions about this game(obsession)
also have you played arches yet? its so damn good
Same, this game changed my life and the way i see life, specially Leo route, it just hits.
I wish I could post the screen shot I took here so that you reading this could get even a glimpse of how fucked up the situation im in right now is
Oh my god no. Stop it stop it stop it. I dont want to see what happens next
Im actually so fucking scared etf is that otter thing man
IM ACTUALLY CRYING WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT OHMYGOD
I came here for a silly furry horrir gamw not to have my soul fucking raped and drugged over and over again
Help
I haven't been so emotionally shaken and bound to a game since the first story game I played and oh my god im goinf insane
Im on Leo's route and what the fuck this game is crazy
Update: what the fuck this is too much for me to handle man
