Thank you for making this game kvltgames. This type of game is sorely lacking in today's gaming industry and you have filled a void that has remained empty for many years. You have created something truly special here and it was brave of you to make such a bold game in a world that is brutal to those who challenge it. Be proud kvltgames, you have done us a great service. Thank you again.

I gotta say, for a project that was mostly done by one guy it is pretty impressive. The story is intriguing, the graphics are unique and easy on the eyes, the animations are smooth and the overall sound design including the voice acting is really well done.

Simply put the game is a point and click adventure and a very simple one at that. The only problems I had with the game is some of the game mechanics are not fully explained to the player which can leave you stumbling around a bit before figuring out that you can do certain things e.g. you can right click on objects to examine them and find out crucial information that the main character needs and you can press H to highlight hot spots. Other than that the game is pretty easy overall so it shouldn't cause you too much trouble.

The game is pretty short clocking in about 2 - 3 hours which makes sense since it is only part 1. But I can safely say that I am definitely intrigued and I am looking forward to the next part since those few hours were enjoyable. If you're looking for a simple, short, charming, point and click adventure game give this one a go, it is definitely worth it.

Solar echoes is a game that was largely made by a single guy, and the end result is pretty impressive to say the least.

Gameplay: Pretty standard for a visual novel. You read the story and at certain points you are presented with some choices to make, your choices actually do matter so you have to be careful with what you pick. Some choices will even result in a game over so choose wisely.

Story: The story is pretty straightforward. You are Trey Donovan a former military man who has been selected by the government to travel to various alien worlds with the goal of uniting all the alien races under one banner. In order to do this you have to bring back a delegate from each alien world to the peace conference and hopefully order will be restored in the galaxy. However whether or not you succeed is based on the choices that you make.

Characters: This where the game really shines. Watching the interactions between the characters and watching their relationships grow and develop over time is the most engaging part of the game. Of course how these relationships will develop will be based on the choices that you make. My favourite was Oasu by the way.

Graphics: The character sprites are really detailed and have a wider range of emotions to express how they are feeling. I will be honest some of the backgrounds did feel a little bland at times especially on the jungle planet, but it was pretty minor since it's the characters that are the most important part of the game. It would have also been nice to have some walking animations for the characters but due to the limitations of the game this is understandable and not a huge deal.

Music: I enjoyed the music of the game. It has that classic sci fi feel to it, the same that you get when watching some of those old sci fi shows on tv. So yeah it fits the game nicely.

All in all a pretty solid game overall and it's very impressive since it was mostly a one man show. As far as visual novels go, this one is pretty good and is definitely worth your time. I give it a solid

8/10.
