Echoes of the sea is a 2D puzzle adventure game that follows our main character 'Echo'. Echo is a siren who can lure and control the sea creatures with her singing voice, which can help her go through her journey of purifying the sea. Such as, solving puzzle, defeating monsters.
One day, the sea is polluted with a mysterious matter. A dark fog that spreads throughout the entire ocean and effects that corrupt all living things. Echo is on her mission to find the source of this mysterious fog that is destroying the sea and restore the sea back to its natural way.
Echo is a siren that can lure and control the sea creatures with her singing voice. Echo is designed to represent the light in this dark sea. She has the appearance of the creature in the same name in western mythology: half human, half fish. Echo's unique point is her hair that resemble a fish's tail and two fins on both sides of her tail.
Lure is a skill that is with Echo since the beginning of the game. When Echo is using Lure, she will create circle sound wave that will lure the sea creatures around her into the circle. These sea creatures can help her go through obstacles.
Lacerate is a skill similar to Lure in terms of area usage and mechanics. However, instead of singing to draw creatures towards Echo, Lacerate will scared them away, and pushes objects out of the way.
Link is a skill that allows Echo to drop her voice at the location around her, which will not be activated until it is command to do so. Once the voice is activated, it works similarly to the Lure skill, but it will attract sea creature to the location that she drop the voice instead of coming to her. Link also has limited usage.
Luminous is a passive skill that will make echo glows constantly, which will help her with travelling through the dark. But be careful as the glow will fade every time echo uses her voice, and it will be gone temporarily. As long as she doesn't use her voice, the glow will come back.
Lure is Echo's main skill. Lure is quite straight forward, it is use to lure sea creatures to her with her voice. But Lure still has it's limits, such as the voice will not be able to travel through obstacles, has limited usage, and different creatures may have various reaction to it.
Hermit is a type of animal that lives on rocks and sea floor. They can block Echo and other creatures from passing them. They can be remove by using Lure or Link skill.
Tuna is the type of fish that follows Echo arounds after using Lure. If Echo has reached her limited usage of skills, she will not be able to lure more tuna in. If she wants to lure in other creature such as Hermit after she's reached her limited usage, she would have to let go of all of her fishes in order to lure in the hermit. Tunas can interact with obstacles in the setting, like eating vines off to clear the path.
