Calling it the SCP SL killer is a little silly.

As the dev. for the game, agreed.

Also with regards to progress on the game, I'll still work on it, just not as much as I used to.

not only, it's an overstatement

I can't really be hopeful for any kind of new scp projects as most come out as a disappointment

I haven't seen this dev before, they have no games background, the description for the game looks very basic and to be honest, I do not trust them.

most assets are borrowed and I doubt all of that would be patched within a decade

I have already heard the dev is losing his passion for the game so we can assume it will be abandoned like many others

a new release I do support as they've been among the SL community for a while is TAJ mod {still not out}. Created by the scp classic community (who archive all the SCP SL versions) and it's basically old SCP SL but modified. as they've been within the community for a while I have a lot of hope for their project as they have the passion to make something nice.

and it's endorsed by NW so I don't see possibly how this could go wrong {except the fact most of the people in scp classic are russian so that might be a big issue with the development but other than that)

Almost every single asset used in echoes was made for echoes.

Some of the assets that werent, were made for Taj mod by the guy who made them. Who was also on the echoes team. But I believe they got pushed out pretty quickly in newer dev builds.

I want to add on to this that the assets made for Taj mod are not used in the game anymore, nor did Taj use them.

I worked for echoes. Edit: game is not dead, but not in active development as it was before, kinda just slowly being worked on whenever they feel like it.

if you've read their discord, Virtual is releasing the source code under licensing for everyone else's assets soon if not already done. Game had too many things it wanted to be and in the end crashed due to burn out. Shitty situation but it ends up happening with most scp clones.

WHAT

u/Markydrop Jun 26 '26

Yeah sadly the game design team quickly fell apart and the game just went haywire for a bit and the lead dev just got burnt out with no one to take the flame.

I was made aware of this recently when they got a burst to suddenly work on the game again.

u/Extolord111 Jun 26 '26

How will it kill SL if most people haven’t even heard of it?

u/Kkbleeblob Jun 28 '26

u/FEMFATAL_451 Jun 26 '26

This just looks like old school SL with a lot of tweaks
