Evaluation
Echoed World is a free-to-play puzzle platformer released on December 4, 2017, created by Team DOTS as a student project. The developer explicitly states in the store description that the game was made over "a few months of tutored game development classes" as a learning exercise, and describes it as "a short, yet sweet adventure." The team released it for free specifically to gather feedback as a finished product. There is no roadmap, no DLC, no post-launch updates, and no developer communications indicating any future content. The game launched as a complete, self-contained experience with no post-launch content cycle ever established.

About this game
Echoed World is a puzzle-based platformer, where mechanics and a story are bound together. The protagonist can no longer create life, but he can still manipulate with what has been already created. This process requires a lot of sacrifices to be made, but is often the only way to traverse through a slowly dying world, where creations are turning against their creator.
