Ecos do Olimpo

Rebuild Olympus through farming, crafting and early automation.

Alpha 0.1.2 is available now — a solo-developed pixel art game made in GameMaker.

Olympus has fallen. Explore its ruins, gather resources, craft machines, cultivate sacred crops and restore the power of the gods piece by piece.

Ecos do Olimpo is a top-down 2D game that combines farming, crafting, construction and early automation in a world inspired by Greek mythology.

This public Alpha introduces the core progression loop: collect materials, craft useful items, plant sacred seeds, smelt ore, build structures and complete divine offerings to restore the first parts of Olympus.

About This Alpha

Alpha 0.1.2 is an early development version of Ecos do Olimpo. The current content can be played from beginning to end, but bugs, balance issues, unfinished visuals and systems that may change are still expected.

The purpose of this release is to test the game’s foundation before expanding it with new areas, gods, resources and automation systems.

This Alpha is especially focused on understanding:

• Whether the main objective is clear to new players.
• Whether farming, crafting, construction and offerings are easy to understand.
• Whether the current progression feels satisfying and rewarding.
• Whether the inventory and interface are comfortable to use.
• Which systems should be improved, expanded or simplified.

Your feedback is one of the most important parts of this Alpha.
