MechoEcho Launches
Vancouver, Canada – May 19, in the year of our Lord
2016. Resilient Games has released its atmospheric
construction block building / 3D puzzle / robotics simulator
game, MechoEcho on Steam and GOG. MechoEcho is available for
Windows PCs at US$18.99 less a 10% launch week discount.
Build and drive robots to solve the 3D puzzles in each of the 30
levels and Sandbox. Enter MechoEcho, an ethereal cyberpunk world
where all that stands between you and peril is your own
ingenuity. Use blocks, engines, and an array of tools to invent
and build brilliantly creative machines. Pilot them to overcome
obstacles as you search for the ultimate solution that can save
you and all of humanity!
What’s it like?
Think Besiege meets Another World. Build machines with
construction blocks in an ethereal environment where each level
is a 3D puzzle to solve. You can choose what to build and every
player will create different inventions, but the robot/machine
you devise must decipher the challenge of the particular level.
Or unleash your ingenuity and inner engineer in the Sandbox
where unlimited blocks of every type allow you to concoct
outrageously inventive creations.
What makes MechoEcho different?
It’s a machine construction block game, but the focus is on
puzzle solving rather than destruction or racing. The humanoid
characters are rendered using a real-time particle fluid
simulation rather than traditional 3D models. A lot of work went
into making sure that the physics are reliable and nearly
deterministic. Finally, it’s a unique mix of art deco and
cyberpunk styles with cool volumetric lights resulting in a
haunting but gorgeous atmosphere.
What are the characters like?
You play as Echo, a manifestation of the person who programmed
the virtual world of Mecho. She also designed AL, Mecho’s
keeper, who is now her nemesis. Awakening to see the changes AL
has wrought, she realizes that her own actions have come back to
haunt her. Transform from humanoid to the heart of a machine and
back as you strive to survive and rectify the mistakes of your
past. Meet helpful humanoids and avoid the beings with blasters
out to destroy you. As the story unfolds, you may be torn
between the competing sides. Ultimately you will have to choose
- and your choice will decide the fate of humanity.
