Echo Weaver is a time loop metroidvania from developer Moonlight Kids. Players control the last of the Weavers, a society trapped in a collapsing utopian society and a glitching time loop. Time itself serves as a resource, consumed for healing, trading, and unlocking progression. Instead of traditional upgrades, players discover secrets to unlock new abilities, as all skills are theoretically available from the outset. The game emphasizes precision platforming and exploration within the ruins of this failed utopia, interacting with other characters also caught in the temporal anomaly.The core gameplay loop revolves around managing time as a consumable currency, extending the loop with pickups and spending it strategically. Progression is tied to uncovering hidden secrets rather than a conventional upgrade system, requiring players to master precision platforming to navigate the environment and exploit the time loop. Echo Weaver challenges players to unravel a conspiracy within the collapsed society of Provenance, utilizing the unique abilities of its time-loop-bound inhabitants to find a path to salvation.
