Create random melodies as you play, and listen to them repeating and evolving into something new. Echo Sings at Night is a relaxing musical game built around the idea of generative music by Brian Eno: an emerging song, made of simple rules, that becomes greater than the sum of its parts.

Warning: Play the desktop version for best performances.

Made under 48 hours for the GMTK Jam 2020, with the theme “Out of Control”.
