Answer the call of a fallen Goddess and cleanse the divine realm from a spreading corruption.
In Echoes of Above, you play as a devoted warrior monk sent into a sacred paradise consumed by demonic forces. Explore mystical ruins inspired by Khmer and Buddhist mythology, survive relentless arena battles, and master a unique combat system where enemy attacks become your greatest weapon.
You do not attack.
You deflect.
Every projectile fired at you can be reflected back with precise timing. Chain perfect deflections together to enter the powerful Mantra state, empowering your projectiles with devastating speed and divine energy as they ricochet across the arena.

PURIFY A SACRED WORLD
Journey through a divine realm inspired by Khmer architecture and Buddhist mythology.
Explore forgotten temples, sacred libraries, floating ports, jungle ruins, waterfalls, and celestial islands corrupted by a mysterious crimson plague. Between intense combat encounters, discover peaceful exploration sequences, environmental puzzles, and hidden paths throughout the Goddess’ paradise.
FACE THE CORRUPTION
Each enemy features unique attack patterns that must be studied and mastered.
Some demons swarm the battlefield while others defend themselves or attack from afar. As the corruption spreads, encounters become faster, denser, and increasingly unpredictable, pushing your reflexes and mastery to their limits.
EASY TO LEARN, HARD TO MASTER
Echoes of Above is designed to be immediately accessible while offering deep mastery for players seeking challenge.
Whether you play on lower difficulties to experience the journey or push yourself through intense bullet hell encounters, every victory depends on your ability to stay focused under pressure and strike back against chaos itself.
