We’re already at the halfway point until the start of the playtest and we’re really cooking here in the studio.

Full Echo: Defy Death update

Read the full published notes in a cleaner layout. The original post stays linked below.

We’re already at the halfway point until the start of the playtest and we’re really cooking here in the studio.

To update you on what’s going on on our end:

  • We were cleaning up and fixing the first build you will playtest (this will be 90% of our work until the playtest)

  • We made the Boss stronger (because we love you)

  • Did some visual tweaking on our shaders for echolocation

  • Adopted a cat entirely by accident (it won’t leave our office)

The playtest is starting soon and in about a week and a half we managed to recruit 67 playtesters! We would love to get that number to about a 100 at least since then we can have a legitimate playtesting squad that can help us get the most accurate results.

So if you haven't signed up yet and if you have other friends that would love to join in on this mission and playtest the game with you, feel free to invite them and help us form this playtesting squad of highly trained assassins!

Join the Playtest!

Gather all the assassins and let’s brace ourselves for some blind combat!
