Somber Echoes News

This mythic bird is one of the bosses you will encounter in Somber Echoes and here you can see some steps in the process in making it come alive.

Here you can see how it progressed as a 3D model.


This is the early prototype design phase:


In the next phase the model has been implemented and have been slightly animated:


In this stage you can see the boss have been implemented to the enviroment and is close to final iteration:


Hope you like this small peak "behind the scenes" - and we have more to show you soon. Stay tuned!

The Somber Echoes demo will be removed from Steam on November 28th, 2024, as we prepare for the full game's launch.

We want to thank everyone who played the demo and provided feedback. Your input has been invaluable in shaping the development of Somber Echoes. We can't wait for you to experience the full game!

See you soon in Atromitos!

In the coming weeks, we'll be sharing some sneak peeks of the new and improved features that will further solidify Somber Echoes as a true Metroidvania experience. Stay tuned!

We would like to thank all the players that have tried the Somber Echoes NextFest demo.

If you haven’t had the chance - we have good news!

Due to high interest we have decided to extend the access to the demo beyond Steam NextFest.

The demo is quite lengthy and we would like to give players a chance to see what it has to offer and provide valuable feedback to the team. Players can share their thoughts by either joining our Discord or Steam's dedicated community discussion.

Happy gaming!

Due to constructive freedback from Steam Deck users we have done some optimization of the Somber Echoes Demo for the platform.

After you have downloaded the updated version of the Somber Echoes Demo the game should automatically switch the Steam Deck Mode under Settings > Render and Resolution to ON. If not, you should be able to turn it on manually.

The Steam Deck Mode will output correct resolution of the screen, set the quality to Medium and lock the framerate to 45 FPS. Also V-sync is recommended for Steam Deck. This should provide a stable player experience. If you prefer the unlocked framerate, you are still free to set change it.



Thank you!

Welcome to the Atromitos, your next big adventure in the world of metroidvanias. We're bringing you a teaser of what's coming out later this fall when Somber Echoes is loading up for its release!
