## What is Echo?

Step into range. Break the horde.

Echo is a stage-based 3D auto-combat action game where positioning triggers every strike. Move through a ruined cyberpunk city, draw infected enemies into blade range, and unleash powerful automatic slashes.

Choose between upgrades as you advance. Increase your damage, attack speed, or slash count—then put your build to the test against the next wave.
Each stage ends with a boss battle built around movement and timing. Read incoming attacks, evade at the right moment, and step back into range when an opening appears.

Features:
- Position-driven auto-combat
- Fast, responsive touch movement
- Meaningful upgrade choices
- Distinct enemy types and formations
- Telegraphed boss encounters
- Unlockable stages across a world map
- Persistent local progress
- Procedural music and impactful visual effects
- Offline play with no account required
- No advertisements or in-app purchases

Every choice leaves a mark.
