About Echoes in the Dark
Echoes in the Dark is a horror experience where you navigate a pitch-black environment by relying on sound to visualize your surroundings. Your primary goal is to move through the darkness while using auditory cues to map out the space around you. The game is a single-player experience built in Unity, requiring you to carefully interpret echoes to avoid hazards and find your way forward. It was created as an entry for the Official Vibe Jam 2025.
What makes this game distinct is the reliance on sound rather than traditional sight, creating a tense atmosphere that rewards players who pay close attention to their environment. It is well-suited for those who enjoy atmospheric horror and unique sensory mechanics. A typical session is short and focused, making it easy to jump into for a quick challenge. The project was developed primarily using AI tools to generate the underlying code.
