Fossil Echo

Hi there,

My son & I tried to play this game today but the screen was flickering too much for us after we chose 'easy' so we closed the game. Is there a fix to stop the screen flickering? (This is just a guess, but maybe it has something to do with my Windows 10 computer being able to play .wmv files properly?)

Thanks

How do you set easy mode? I just saw control options, credits, and locked options. I thought maybe the option became available after the credits or something, but never saw the option. 

Beautiful game, but I play to unwind, so I'd love to find out more about easy mode.

What a gem! This is a very beautiful little game. The soundtrack is awesome, too. 

Thank you for this experience.

Beautiful game, but I seem to be missing how to enable easy mode (Yeah, I know, I should try to suck less LOL)

Enjoyed the game enough that I played it through twice :)

One question, how do you get the last animation (giving the boat back)? I also didn't get how to interact with the Easter eggs off the beaten path.

Some criticism: The orange indicators for the challenges were a nice indication... once. Adding more and more as you continue to die just made me feel bad. Dying is a bit slow, especially in the challenges. The enemy patterns after you've alerted one can get you into situations where it's almost impossible to win without dying.

Very much enjoyed the art style, music, and wordless story telling. My only feedback is two things: menu and tutorial. The menu is a little confusing and doesn't look as nice as the game. Most of the features were crossed out and because I didn't know what they were, I simply ignored and it didn't give motivation to finish the game just to see more stuff. Easy mode should be available from the start, also. 

Tutorial- I really appreciated the hand prints on the stone to guide you, however the controls were a little confusing. I found myself not learning what did what, and simply spam tapping because sometimes you would jump and climb, other times you would simply jump and fall. A short little sequence to show us what exactly did what, and how to do it would have been plenty helpful :)

Otherwise AMAZING game, truly beautiful and definitely worth the time. <3

Tahnk you for the game! First of all the design backgrounds are Gorgeous, and I love how in every floor of the tower the scenery around it changes. How the enemies work is very intuitive and well done from a game designer's perspective, and the platforming as well -- even if it gets a bit difficult for me sometimes! The flashbacks of the little kid are absolutely gorgeous. And the music is super atmospheric. Really, awesome work all the way through. Big love! <3 

Tougher than I expected! I like the structure of the game, never gets too frustrating even if it requires some trial and error at times. Great presentation, too. 

I got this game from a bundle a while ago and was gonna install it to play today, but for  some reason I cant install it? What does "this game is hosted on an incompatible third-party website" means?

is there a Mac version in the works?

Thanks for this game, I enjoyed every minute of it.  The music, the gameplay and the story and not a single bug! It is impressive that a small team can create such a epic and amazing game,  your team has a new fan :)

I've barely just played past the tutorial section, but I needed to chime in and say OMG THE CONTROLLLSSSSSS. Dudes, the controls are so silky smooth! I don't think I've ever played a platformer where mantling and wall jumping felt so good. Nice job!

What about the Linux version?

The current download link, based on Google Drive, has a lot of issues due to hit quotas, probably because of the recent inclusion of Fossil Echo in the current Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality.

Could you please instead host a copy of the game installer on itch.io servers, to make sure it is reliably downloadable?
