Congrats! The collectibles and pets sound like fun.
Any particular inspirations? I’m gonna guess Scooby Doo maybe 🤔
What kind of pets are there in the game? 😍
I like the blocky but 3d style. What inspired this look, versus a full 3d (smooth) look?
I love the art direction! Do you all have any plans for a physical release?
Any inspiration taken from the show “Are you afraid of the dark”?
Art style looks great!
Of all of the enemies in the game which one is a personal favourite of the dev team? Btw the game looks really good and I bet people would love to own it physical.
As a game designer, how do you feel out how hard to go on graphics? It looks like you put a lot of work into these environments which sometimes are just a background players walk past. Obviously the game looks very cool, but how do you balance the time and money it takes to get here? I assume this was planned and built into the game design documents?
I see here what some of what I assume are bosses look like, but what is the actual combat like? How’s it work?
What was the inspiration behind the diverse visual themes?
I never played or even Heard of the original and when the midnight edition trailer popped on the Direct,me and my gf ( we both do art,my gf works profesionally -candela kerze ig-)thought the art and design looked great,but were kinda confused about the themes ,since we saw giant mechs,skeletons,werewolves,creatures,aliens,all sorts of stuff under these 80s goony like adventure lens.
Can the Raccoons be a party member?
I love the music in the trailer, reminds me of Zombies ate my neighbors. I haven’t played the 1st games, but am willing to because this looks fun. Is it a continuation of the story or same world kind of trilogy?
Such a nostalgic feeling, looks great. Good luck to everyone and take care!
Most effective way to generate an echo?
How long did the game take to develop? Also, how long is the game in length?
Looks great, btw!

Are there any plans to bring Ravenlok to the Switch? I absolutely loved it. I also enjoyed Riverbond. Echo Generation is on my list to play!
What was the biggest development challenge your team faced, and how did you get around that?
This looks interesting, will I be at a disadvantage for not having played the earlier game?
Looks like a fun game! Congrats on the release.
If you could develop any Nintendo IP, which one would you choose? What kind of game would you make?
Since the game is set in the 90s and i’m a 90s kid i have to ask, what made you choose such a glorious decade?
Looks super interesting, definitely need to add to my wishlist.
