Echo Weave

Overview

Echo Weave is a game built around one unusual idea: you don’t pilot your ship, you choreograph it. You compose a short, looping sequence of actions — and then every previous copy of your ship performs that same sequence alongside you, a growing swarm of echoes all moving in time.

The mechanic

• Four actions — Thrust, Warp, Pulse, and Anchor, each with angle and power, composed into a repeating 8-beat loop.
• Echoes — every completed loop spawns a new echo (up to six) that replays your sequence, so you’re really programming a coordinated swarm.
• The puzzle — score by anchoring fragments near your allies while dodging hunters, across a 90-second run.

Why I’m proud of it

The mechanic is genuinely original, and the whole thing is built in dependency-free vanilla JavaScript on the Canvas — with a test suite, because even a tiny game deserves one.
