Infos zum Spiel

Earth has antibodies, you are one of them.

Aliens have landed on Earth. Their bodies are not adapted to our world. One small predator carries something they cannot survive, a virus.

Echo Pandemic is a stealth game played from inside the senses of a bat. You see the world through sound a sketchbook drawing that fills in around you as your chirps reach it and falls away to outlines when they don't. Color exists only when you scan for infection. Every visual is information.

Each night, you slip into an occupied town. You find a host. You bite. Then you vanish before the screaming starts because once a civilian sees you, the patrols come out.

A stealth game where your weapon is a disease

One bite seeds an outbreak. What happens next is up to you.

• Engineer strains. Trade lethality for spread. Delay symptoms so a carrier walk through a gathering before the cough starts. Mutate to outpace alien vaccines.

• Spread happens without you. While you rest, the disease moves through the town on its own — through gatherings, contact, contamination. You wake up to a different world.

• Strains coexist. Old infections keep their old strain. The town becomes an ecology of diseases you authored, each with its own behavior.

Hunt by echolocation

• Three vision systems, one bat. Long-range rod vision for navigating in the dark. Chirps that fill in the world around you in tonal pencil shading. Scan pulses that paint infection status in the only color the game allows itself to use.

• Sound is a tradeoff. Chirps are how you see — and how the military hears you. Going silent makes you safer and blinder at the same time.

• Hide flush. Tuck into vents, perch in the rafters, vanish into a roof gap. If they can't see you and you're not chirping, you don't exist.

A town that responds to you

• Civilians scream. Screams bring patrols. Patrols bring radios. Radios bring the rest of the base.

• Revisit a town you cleared early and find it transformed with quarantine tape, medical tents, fewer civilians and more soldiers.

• Alien command develops vaccines against the strains you've used. Stop mutating and the outbreak dies. Mutate too fast and you burn through XP.

A handmade visual language

Every frame is rendered as ink and pencil on paper. The black-and-white sketchbook isn't a filter — it's the bat's perception, driven by the same shader math that powers the stealth system. When you see color, it means something. When the world fills in around you, that's a sound wave landing.

Offenlegung von KI-generierten Inhalten

Der Spieleentwickler beschreibt den Einsatz von KI-generierten Inhalten in diesem Spiel wie folgt:

The game itself is made entirely by human hands. All in-game art, music, sound design, and writing are created or directed by human authors without generative AI. All gameplay footage shown on this store page is real, captured from the actual game.
Generative AI is used for some marketing materials — including promotional images, social media assets, and capsule art — to support a small independent studio's marketing within budget constraints. These AI-generated images are intended to represent the game's existing hand-made art style.
No AI-generated content is shipped inside the game itself. If Echo Pandemic recovers its development costs, capsule images and marketing material will be replaced with commissioned human work.
