About This Game

YOU ARE NOT A SOLDIER. YOU ARE AN ENGINEER.

Humanity Echo is a turn-based tactical RPG set in cyberpunk Odesa, 2044.

Take contracts, prepare your squad, and turn the city's infrastructure against your enemies.

Your father disappeared inside a Prospect Corp facility. Following his trail draws you into a conflict among resistance cells, criminal crews, fanatics, and the corporation tightening its hold on Odesa.

"Thoughtful, grid-based firefights... where stray bullets can impact the field."

- Turn Based Lovers

ENGINEER THE BATTLEFIELD

Every mission is a tactical problem. Spend Action Points to move, attack, support your squad, and interact with the battlefield.

Plan the trajectory, not only the hit chance.

  • Systems, Not Scenery: Cut power, trigger hazards, open routes, and turn tactical objects into advantages.

  • Every Shot Travels: A miss can strike something behind the target or put your own squad at risk.

  • Fight Under Pressure: Objectives, limited supplies, and reinforcements force you to adapt.

PREPARE FOR EVERY CONTRACT

The fight begins before deployment.

Choose your squad, equip weapons and armor, pack medical supplies and tactical tools, and prepare for the risks ahead. Different operatives cover different roles, but no single loadout solves every mission.

  • Build Around the Mission: Combine operatives, weapons, abilities, and equipment around the objective and threats ahead.

  • Grow Through Action: Operatives improve the skills they actually use in the field.

  • Make the Loot Matter: Equip what you found, build around it, or sell it to fund the next job.

ODESA REMEMBERS

Every operation leaves a mark on the people and factions of Odesa.

Between missions, messages, calls, files, and new leads carry those consequences back into a sun-bleached city.

  • The Terminal Connects the City: Follow contracts, contacts, evidence, and new mission leads.

  • People Remember: Later conversations and events reflect what you said, whom you helped, and what happened in the field.

  • Every Alliance Has a Price: Choose whom to trust as competing powers pursue conflicting goals.

PLAY THE DEMO

Play the opening chapter of Humanity Echo and experience:

  • Turn-based tactical missions with Action Points, cover, abilities, environmental interactions, and missed shots that keep travelling across the battlefield.

📡 PLANNED FOR EARLY ACCESS

Early Access is planned to expand this foundation with:

  • Tactical Maps That Change: Fight across handcrafted maps where cover can be destroyed, hazards alter safe routes, and reinforcements reshape the encounter.

  • Contracts and Factions: Take story missions and faction jobs, build reputation, unlock new opportunities, and face the consequences of choosing sides.

  • Loot, Mods, and Workshop: Expand your arsenal with new weapons, armor, modifications, skills, perks, supplies, and workshop upgrades.

  • A City That Responds: Mission outcomes influence district pressure, faction behavior, vendors, prices, and the leads available to your squad.

  • A Broader Campaign: Discover new locations, characters, enemy factions, story arcs, difficult choices, and local outcomes across Odesa.

Wishlist Humanity Echo and follow its road to Early Access.
