- Update 1.2 and the End of Fading Voices - 26 June 2026
It should've been a bigger update, but in the end I just ended up updating illustrations, translations, menùs, and added easter eggs, secret bosses, and bond endings.Fading Voices, or Fading Echoes, as it was originally named, was supposed to be a big project, but I think it ended failing, both due to big ambitions, and to the poor engine that was used, RPG Maker MV. Obviously this had big impact, I was left wondering if this career even made for me, and if it made sense to even continue it. I think there is meaning in it, so I now switched to Godot. I've already released some prototype games on itch, and will soon release new content on Steam, too.Maybe, you already heard the name of one of the projects, since I'm heavily using socials to advertise it: it's GyroMon, an Action Monster Tamer. By the end of summer, I aim to release GyroMon and another game as an Early Access.Thanks to eve…

Hello everyone! Thank you for buying the game, trying out the demo, and for all the wishlists and feedback! So, what will become of this fun little game? Will it get lost in the depths of Steam?

- The game is live! - 24 September 2024
The game is finally published. It has been a long journey, since I started drafting stuff 2 years ago, and started development 9 months ago. The engine I chose was probably not the best (since I was not able to do many of the things I wished), and added to the fact that for the future, I'll develop smaller games, are the reasons why I'll move to Godot. Probably. Me making other games, is not exactly set in stone. Regarding the future of Fading Echoes Voices, I'll release new content updates in the future, which will be free, since I don't really believe in this "Buy the game and spend ten times more in DLCs". I'll release a roadmap in the future. Also, the game doesn't have particular protection against piracy, because it would be pointless, and I have pirated a lot of stuff, so...fair. But at least I tried to prevent it with low price. The past months have been challenging, both in the…
- Update 0.9 is now live! - 3 September 2024
Hi everyone! The game is shaping it's final form, and by next week, the game will be out. It's been a long journey, isn't it? But It won't be over, I plan to also release a roadmap for the future content I plan to add, and don't worry, it will be free, there won't be any DLC for the game, every update will be free. But instead of thinking to the future, let's focus on the present, and let's talk about this update: When opening the game, it could says it has problems finding a .bgm file, simply close and reopen the game You may find some holes or mispelling in the translations, simply report them so I can fix them When pressing the button for the defense QTE, the character target by the enemy, may still jump or charge a bar, even if the enemy move ended Some shortcut buttons can't be configured, so if the button is changed, it won't be possible to have that shortcut anymore. However rese…
- Update 0.8.5 is now live! - 4 August 2024
Hi everyone! This is an interim update, there are many things that are fixed or added that couldn't wait. Aside from a couple of maps, the story and side quests, everything that I wanted to put in the game, was added. So, here are the main changes, as always, remembering that you can watch me build the game live on Twitch. or on YouTube! When opening the game, it could says it has problems finding a .bgm file, simply close and reopen the game You may find some holes or mispelling in the translations, simply report them so I can fix them Sometimes, the game over screen might take a couple of seconds more to pop up. The player might still see a glimp of the old map when loading the new one.

- Update 0.7 is now live! - 28 June 2024
Hi everyone! I had in mind more stuff for this update, but I had to rush it a bit to make it come out with the Steam festival, I'll work for publishing a 0.7.5 or 0.8 as soon as possible, hopefully around next week. The rushed bit will probably be more obvious with the NPCs, since maybe Silika and the Royal Mirage will feel empty. The skill reworking is going smoothly, the synergic and elemental skills are all completed, I've started working on enemy-exclusive skills, making the combat feel more alive, the enemy won't just use normal attacks and magic, at least. I improved a couple of Steam Resources, and improved the Demo too. When opening the game, it could says it has problems finding a .bgm file, simply close and reopen the game The cards in the BlackJack minigame, may appear moved to the left instead of the center You may find some holes or mispelling in the translations, simply re…

Hi everyone! It took longer than I anticipated to put this Update out, but it's finally here, even if it needs a bit of tweaking, it was supposed to arrive for the sale, but it took more time than expected and I had to cut a bit of stuff, but it's all something that will arrive with the next update. Also, in the next update I'll add the missing mechanics, so the game will finally enter it's final stage. The next update, the 0.7, is supposed to go live around the end of the month.

- Update 0.5 is now live - 31 May 2024
Hi everyone! It's been a month since the last update, I had to solve a couple of personal things, and worked on the game, which I can confidently say it will be completed around half July. And I can also confidently say the 0.6 Update will come out on June 9. In this Update, I did a Visual Update on a couple of things I didn't liked, bringing them to a finished version, such as the Battle HUD, and added other mechanics and minigame, such as Row Formation and Dice and Coin, even if the Player can't play them right now. The Demo has also been updated with more content, if you want to check the game out before buying. As always, you can check me build the game live on Twitch. or on YouTube!

- Update 0.4.5 is now live! - 23 April 2024
Hi everyone! Since 0.5 is going to be a big update, I'll divide it, and add a portion now, so this changelog is going to be handled a bit different than usual, with only new content and upcoming content sections.

- Update 0.4 is now live! - 15 April 2024
Hi everyone! At the end the 0.3.5 update, ended up becoming the 0.4 update. I was supposed to add just a couple of stuff and the main focus would have been the main story, but I ended up adding nearly every main mechanic of the game, such as Battle QTEs, Pre-Emptive Strikes, Lightning Effects, Meteorological Effects, Pixel Movement, Difficulty Slider, 3 "Minigames" and also Steam Achivements. So, let's jump on the new content, since we have a lot to talk about! And also, the Demo has been updated with all this new content!

- Update 0.3 is now live! - 7 April 2024
Happy Easter!!! Yeah, it passed a bit since actual Easter. Anyway. This is an update with major focus on tweaking the game, with tweaks to the battle system and more custom assets, which will replace the RPG Maker stuff, but I'm sure you can still find enjoyment from it, with the Blackjack minigame and the new areas and side quests. The Demo will also be updated in the next few days as well, with only the bug fixes, battle tweaks and the custom visuals updates, while the story etc. will stay the same The next update, the 0.4, will instead have a major focus on adding story, areas and side quests, while still adding a couple of twists to the gameplay, with new minigames and mechanics. It will be a major game's update. And since it will probably take a lot of time to complete it, I will probably update the game piece by piece, with for example a "0.3.5 Update". Also, as I'm just a single…
