The Game at a Glance
What is Echo Weaver?
Echo Weaver is a 2D knowledge-based Metroidvania developed by Moonlight Kids and published by Akupara Games. Set in the collapsing ruins of Provenance, you play as the last Weaver attempting to break an unraveling time loop. Progression relies entirely on accumulated player knowledge, revelations, and route execution rather than traditional stat upgrades.
Each run starts in a pool of water with an active countdown timer that acts as your primary resource. You explore handcrafted corridors, burn time to heal wounds or unlock doors, and wield an alien glaive for movement and combat. Running out of time or taking fatal damage resets the world, but your memories, shortcuts, and map data persist to help optimize subsequent cycles.

From your first time loop to glaive abilities, demos, platforms, and reviews, choose the topic you need.
Beginner Guide
Progress comes from discovering how to use abilities you already possess, rather than unlocking new equipment. Explore the interconnected map, learn from each time loop, and use your discoveries to overcome obstacles that initially seem impossible.
Utilize the Weaver's default double jumps, wall jumps, and slide jumps to cross wide gaps without needing gear unlocks.
Monitor your countdown timer and sacrifice single minutes of cycle time to heal damage or purchase regional maps from Z.
Recover the alien glaive in Advanced Research to hit distant switches, clear obstructions, and prepare for teleportation.
More details
Throw the glaive past timed obstacles and dive into blue inth flames to warp across thresholds before doors lock shut.
Glaive Abilities
Throw your boomerang-like glaive to solve puzzles and attack enemies. Its hidden uses include setting it on fire, an ability available from the start even though you may discover how to activate it much later.
Hurl the glaive along cardinal trajectories to damage enemies, break containers, and hit switches before it returns.
Summon the planted glaive back into your hand across any distance by holding down the retrieve button.
Dive into active blue inth fountains to instantly teleport the Weaver directly to the planted glaive's coordinates.
