Every weapon hides a world. A 2D metroidvania of vertical descent — step inside each blade you find, descend its Item World, and reforge it through layers of memory and reactive elemental depths.
ECHORIS
SteamDescend. Forge. Remember.
ECHORIS is a 2D side-scrolling metroidvania set deep within a vertical megastructure built by giants who no longer remember why. Drop level by level through forgotten corridors. Fight what was left behind. Reforge the weapons you find — until the shaft itself bends to your will.
The world is one vast vertical structure, half-built and half-ruined. Unlock relics that reshape how you move — dash through narrow gaps, walljump across fissures, breathe in poisoned water, slip through shadow. Every gate is locked behind a stat or an ability, and every path leads somewhere deeper.
Each blade carries a voice — the Ego of the soul who once wielded it. Step inside any weapon to enter its Item World. Descend the Memory Strata. Defeat the bosses that guard each layer. Reclaim the Memory Shards they leave behind, slot them into your weapon's Identity, and listen as its voice grows clearer. Five Temperaments — Forge, Iron, Rust, Spark, Shadow — shape what kind of soul each blade becomes. No two weapons will ever grow the same way.
Water flows. Oil spreads. Fire spreads further. Lightning leaps between conductors. Frost crawls across pools. Every floor is a chemistry set, and every weapon is a way to disturb it. Throw a flask of oil into a torchlit corridor and watch it run. Slash a water-vase above an electrified pool. The room becomes a tactic.
The deeper Item Worlds were never meant to be faced alone. Cooperative descent is planned for a post-launch update — friends in the same blade, the same strata, the same fall.
The shaft remembers you. Your weapons remember more.
