Echoes+ Releases on STEAM!

The Game Creators today released the FREE To Play game Echoes+ on STEAM, illustrating how Indie developers can easily create and publish high quality games using App Game Kit 2.

Echoes+ is an intense retro action space shooter where players must fight their way through wave after wave of neon coloured space enemies, leveling up their score multiplier and shields as they go. The onslaught just keeps on building with new challenges the further they progress.

The game features six different game modes; Echoes, time attack, survivor, meteor storm, asteroid belt and classic. With four difficulty settings and 100 trials there’s a lot of depth for players to explore. The game also features local and global leader boards.

Echoes+ was created with the easy to use cross platform development tool App Game Kit 2. Chris Jeffels, the author of Echoes+, coded the game once and deployed it for both Windows and Mac platforms. When asked why he chose AGK2 for his game engine he commented “AGK2 is multi-platform, powerful, feature rich and continuing to grow, it was an easy and affordable choice.”

The Game Creators Development Director, Rick Vanner, said “Echoes+ is a great example of how using AGK2, developers can quickly code a game and have it up and running on multiple devices. It also demonstrates the speed of the AGK core game engine.”
