Echo Harvest

Echo Harvest is a survival game about building settlements that can endure across timelines. You play as a Keeper, gathering resources, exploring a dangerous world and preparing colonies to face corrupted creatures. Your settlements develop autonomously, using the resources you provide to construct buildings and defences.

Build across timelines

Corruption closes in beyond the safety of the Home Flame, and time cannot be stopped. You decide what to accomplish before it runs out, supplying settlements as they develop farms, housing, storage, walls and defensive turrets. You can establish new colonies, discover forgotten places and valuable resources, and balance expansion against the greater threat it attracts.

Echo Dust can stabilise a failing timeline, but supplies are limited. Eventually, you must decide whether to construct a Beacon and Ascend, sacrificing the present to strengthen what comes next. If you fail, the timeline is lost; if you Ascend, the struggle begins again under greater pressure.

Leave an Echo

Your actions in each life determine the Echo you leave behind. Gathering, building, exploring, defending, transporting supplies and harvesting resources contribute to different Echo specialisations. The life you lead shapes the Echo that follows you, and over time a lone Keeper becomes the centre of a network of settlements populated by remnants of earlier lives.

Record each timeline

Echo Harvest records important discoveries, settlements, battles, losses, periods of prosperity and moments of collapse in an illustrated Chronicle. When a timeline ends in victory or total loss, its Chronicle is added to your Timeline Library and can be exported as an illustrated PDF, preserving the history of that world.
