New Games on The Great Games Experiment http://www.greatgamesexperiment.com/css/logo.jpg en-us Empyreal Nocturne is a 3D aerial action game in which you combat enormous flying monsters by commanding a legion of birds.

Each flying monster, called Hydra, is a series of nodes connected together. You must defeat each weak point node to destroy the entire monster.

The design of the game is influenced by "Shadow of the Colossus". You battle enormous creatures that initially appear to be insurmountable. It is also partially inspired by "Rez" in the sense that they are both non-traditional, abstract shooter games.

Instead of just small and large asteroids, there are four asteroid sizes (ranging from mini to enourmous) comets, meteor storms, asteroid belts, planets (with moons), black holes and the sun. There are also both energy and weapon power-ups.


Echoes is created by Binary Zoo, creators of mono, Duo and DUOtris.
