Power up. Hold the line. Move forward.

You awaken as the Mechanic—an aging support unit buried beneath a ruined facility. Power is scarce. Memory is fragmented. All you know is this: you have to get through the canyon, and something is coming.

With only enough charge to bring two of your old teammates back online, every decision matters. Will you prioritize speed, defense, firepower, or the ability to harvest the glowing crystals scattered across the battlefield?Choose wisely—every bot is unique, every role irreplaceable, and once a unit is destroyed, it's gone for the rest of the run.

Between waves, you drag your makeshift base forward—hauling research equipment, repair stations, and charging stations deeper into the unknown. Combat gets harder. Resources get tighter. But somehow, your bots start to remember things. Vague flashes. Fragmented subroutines. Upgrades come faster. Reactions sharpen. If only you knew why...

The Echo Protocol is a tactical tower-defense survival game with permadeath, persistence, and psychological weight. Every wave is a brutal puzzle. Every bot is a lifeline. And each decision ripples forward—into the next battle, the next playthrough, and somewhere deeper.

You will lose. Again and again. But you'll bring something back with you—just a little bit more than you had last time.

And piece by piece, something buried in your code begins to activate.

Move forward, whatever it takes.
