Echoes: Act 1: Operation Stranglehold

Echoes: Act 1 - Operation Stranglehold is the first game in a series of three games planned in total. It is an action-strategy game set in an extensive universe on a torn Earth almost three-hundred years in the future. The game is played as a 2D side-scrolling shooter where the main character is controlled with the cursor keys and aiming is done through the mouse. He can use different weapons such as a futuristic knife and guns, and also has access to abilities to heal or use a shield. The strategy element is introduced through the control over other soldiers as a squad, giving them commands and operating as a group. Throughout the game extensive dialogue is used to further the story and the relationships between the characters.
