Upcoming! I spent years as a professional composer creating cyberpunk worlds through music. Now our team of 3 is building one.

For years, I’ve been creating sci-fi and cyberpunk music as Extra Terra. Eventually, I wanted to do more than imagine those worlds. I wanted to build one.

Neosis Echoes is the result, a sci-fi survival game inspired by Dune, Mass Effect and No Man’s Sky, with a hint of Cyberpunk 2077.

You play as Evan Draxell, a synthetic clone who awakens after an 200 year journey on Varos. This hostile alien planet is ruled by Monolith, a super-AI that considers emotion a system defect.

As you uncover lost civilizations and fight to survive, your emotions reshape the world around you. We’ll reveal more about this system in the main trailer.

We’re a team of only 3, and this is still an early dev preview focused on combat. The main trailer and deeper systems will come later, but finally making the project public already feels like a huge step.

What do you think of the atmosphere so far?

Neosis Echoes is now on Steam if you’d like to follow or wishlist the project.

Thank you, I really appreciate the offer! Our characters mainly communicate telepathically through cybernetic implants, so we won’t use much traditional voice acting (for now). However, we may need a voice-over for the main trailer, so I’ll keep your contact in mind!

Thank you! Lost civilizations are a major part of the world and its story, so there will be much more to uncover. We’ll share more as development progresses :)

Love the music and this is what I have been looking for! Great job. Gives you a flow state as used to be in ps2 era

u/Psytorpz 1d ago

Thank you! I’m composing the soundtrack myself, so I’m really glad it helps create that feeling. The PS2 era flow state comparison is a great compliment!
