GAME & GENERATION NOTICE

Echoes Beyond is a full generative game experience. Character dialogue, portraits, voice, emotional scenes, and dynamic story content can use model and image credits. The faction registry, authored hull archive, navigation systems, native room artwork, combat, saves, and interface systems are part of the Stage or standalone application—not the downloadable Chub character JSON.

01

THE PREMISE

A MANAGEMENT RPG ABOUT TURNING STRANGERS INTO A CREW

Echoes Beyond combines spaceship management, construction, exploration, tactical combat, faction politics, and visual-novel storytelling inside one persistent campaign.

You name your vessel, choose the title your crew uses for you, define your Commander, and customize the ShipAide™ who serves as your operational right hand. The ship begins incomplete—but its Teleporter Room is already reaching across impossible distances.

New arrivals do not enter as blank recruits. They retain identities, descriptions, histories, loyalties, relationships, strengths, vulnerabilities, and unresolved lives. Some become engineers, officers, doctors, diplomats, rivals, lovers, family, liabilities, or the reason the entire vessel changes direction.

The ship is more than a menu. It is the place where the campaign lives: rooms can be built, upgraded, damaged, destroyed, repaired, rearranged, staffed, powered down, remembered, fought over, and transformed by story outcomes.

CAMPAIGN PRINCIPLES

What makes every run different?

ARRIVALSTravelers appear with existing identity and history rather than being generated as anonymous workers.
CONSEQUENCESScenes can change stats, relationships, resources, rooms, factions, roles, outfits, and future events.
OWNERSHIPCrew claim workspaces, quarters, responsibilities, memories, friendships, grudges, and ambitions.
OPEN-ENDEDBuild toward exploration, diplomacy, trade, combat, rescue, research, community, or something stranger.

THE AUTHORED GALAXY

SEVENTEEN FACTIONS WITH FLAGS, POLITICS, REPRESENTATIVES AND FLEETS

The galaxy is organized around exactly seventeen canonical factions, one for each major species identity in the registry. These are not interchangeable procedural placeholders. Each faction has an authored political mandate, institutions, public identity, visual language, flag, official representative, title structure, recruitment office, fleet catalogue, and relationship to the wider map.

Faction reputation influences recruitment, services, trade, assignments, story access, shipyard offers, diplomatic responses, docking behavior, and the way outside powers interpret your vessel.

THE AUTHORED FLEET ARCHIVE

FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY-TWO HULLS ACROSS SPECIES FLEETS AND PIRATES

432AUTHORED HULLS24 designs × 17 species fleets
+ 24 pirate hulls

CORVETTE 15–20 CELLS

Compact starters, scouts, couriers, interceptors, rescue vessels, and independent utility ships.

FRIGATE 21–35 CELLS

Early fleet escorts, patrol ships, fast transports, and specialist mission vessels.

DESTROYER 36–55 CELLS

Dedicated combat platforms, pursuit hulls, heavier escorts, and system-control ships.

LIGHT CRUISER 56–80 CELLS

Flexible long-range ships with room for meaningful specialization and larger crews.

HEAVY CRUISER 81–110 CELLS

Durable fleet assets able to carry layered weapons, logistics, and survival systems.

BATTLECRUISER 111–150 CELLS

Large command and strike hulls built for strategic reach, heavy armament, and prestige.

BATTLESHIP 151–200 CELLS

Major capital ships with deep internal capacity, layered defenses, and sustained firepower.

DREADNOUGHT 201–260 CELLS

The largest classified vessels: campaign-defining mobile strongholds with enormous build space.

ONE AUTHORITATIVE CATALOGUE: starter ships, navigation traffic, visiting vessels, hostile encounters, derelicts, faction offers, and shipyards all draw from the same authored fleet registry.

STARTING VESSELS

Six Authored Starter Corvettes

Choose an allegiance or remain independent and begin aboard one of six original corvettes. Starter hulls use fixed connected masks with 15–20 legal cells, authored exterior art, and room space aligned to the pressure hull.

Rooms Can Become Wreckage

Every installed room has its own rating. Damage reduces function, can disable systems, and may turn a room into an F-rated Destroyed Room that must be cleared before rebuilding.

CREW INJURIES

Health Changes Performance

Brawn, Reflexes, current Health, assignment, equipment, room state, and tactical choices shape combat contribution. Incapacitated crew require treatment and recovery.

SALVAGE & RESEARCH

Victories produce salvage, research opportunities, repairs, upgrades, replacement systems, and new tactical options—provided the ship survives the cost.

LIFE ABOARD

THE GALAXY DOES NOT WAIT WHILE YOU FINISH DECORATING

Daily Event Rhythm

Each day can schedule personal conversations, workplace events, social incidents, distress calls, authored choices, strange signals, and surprise combat.

Up to Three Visiting Ships

Visitors bring captains, crews, cargo, motives, interiors, exterior identities, inspections, trades, repairs, missions, recruitment, shipyard offers, and trouble.

Derelict Expeditions

Use survey and launch systems to explore wrecks, reveal compartment hazards, risk injuries, recover salvage, and discover why a vessel was abandoned.

Scenes Move Through the Ship

Characters can change rooms, outfits, roles, loyalties, relationships, faction membership, and even leave the vessel before returning with new history.

Story-Created Content

A scene may unlock a missing facility, create a new module, add an outfit, introduce an emergent character, alter resources, or permanently change ship conditions.

Four Ship Conditions

Systems, Comfort, Security, and Morale define what daily life feels like and influence the tone, pressure, and subject matter of generated scenes.

CUSTOMIZATION, SAVES & RECOVERY

BUILD YOUR VERSION OF THE GALAXY WITHOUT LOSING THE CAMPAIGN

CARD JSON ≠ IN-GAME CAMPAIGN SAVE

The portable JSON described below is generated by Echoes Beyond itself and is used inside the Stage, Windows build, or Android build. Chub's normal character-card JSON download is different: it does not contain the game and cannot be used to play it.

NARRATIVE TONEORIGINAL · GRITTY · HUMOROUS · ROMANTIC
PRESENTATIONLANGUAGE · FONT · SPEED · ART STYLE
GENERATIONVOICE · EMOTIONS · DECOR · IMPERSONATION

Ten campaign slots support long-running games, while the game's own portable JSON export and import let players move campaigns between slots or preserve them outside the application. This in-game save format is not the same as Chub's character-card JSON download.

State revisions and deletion records prevent stale data from restoring deleted saves. When browser storage reaches its quota, compact recovery data protects local continuity while complete saves continue through host persistence.

Save migration repairs older campaigns as faction registries, hull definitions, module footprints, room artwork, visiting ships, combat data, derelicts, species identities, and character ceilings evolve.

Generation controls allow players to reduce image, voice, décor, or presentation usage without removing the authored systems that define the game.

Designed for a campaign that can survive change: rooms, actors, IDs, upgrades, faction records, assignments, relationships, and portable saves are treated as persistent game state—not disposable scene decoration.

Echoes Beyond — A Full Spaceship Management RPG Built Inside Chub - Game is PC, and Mobile friendly. (Btw free users the game is free user friendly and provides over 400,000+ written dialog so you don't have to waste your free 20 messages ♥♥♥)

Needs to be played with Soji as its a Chub stage.

A ship that was never truly empty Echoes Beyond is a playable spaceship-management and visual-novel RPG built as a Chub stage. You begin in command of an unfinished vessel whose Teleporter Room suddenly receives a living traveler from somewhere else in the galaxy. They remember their name, history, loyalties, relationships, and everything they left behind—and they are not the last. Every new arrival can become an officer, engineer, doctor, diplomat, friend, rival, romantic partner, liability, or the reason your entire campaign changes direction.

Build more than a collection of menus Your vessel is a persistent place that can be constructed, staffed, powered, upgraded, damaged, rearranged, repaired, and transformed by story events. The game contains 103 room types and 286 distinct room-upgrade sprites, including crew spaces, life support, research facilities, logistics systems, defensive rooms, and advanced weapons. Rooms connect through pressure doors, vertical movement requires dedicated lifts or transit systems, and power shortages can force lower-priority systems offline. You can also store and reinstall modules without losing their upgrades or settings.

Seventeen factions and hundreds of authored ships The galaxy is built around 17 canonical factions, each with authored politics, institutions, flags, official representatives, recruitment offices, cultural identities, and fleet access. Reputation affects recruitment, services, trade, missions, diplomatic responses, docking encounters, and shipyard offers. The full fleet archive includes 432 authored hulls—24 designs for every species fleet, plus a complete pirate catalogue—ranging from compact Corvettes to enormous Dreadnoughts. Starters, visitors, traffic, enemies, derelicts, and faction shipyards all draw from this same fleet registry.

Characters who remember what happens. Crew members are designed to feel like persistent people rather than disposable workers. The game includes 17 species identities, a progressive alien encyclopedia, a 16-step grade ladder from F to X+, and 700 validated character traits covering biology, combat, technical skill, personality, emotion, leadership, lifestyle, relationships, and adaptation. Trust, affection, attraction, respect, loyalty, fear, resentment, and jealousy are tracked separately in each direction. Important scenes can become memories that later conversations and character arcs reference.

Exploration, traffic, combat, and life aboard Navigation includes 56 authored systems and 48 scheduled vessels moving through persistent real-time courses. You can track freighters, patrols, distress calls, faction ships, suspicious contacts, and hostile vessels as they travel between destinations. Combat includes 23 authored weapon and control modes involving range, heat, salvos, interception, disabling attacks, minefields, gravitic effects, boarding, capture, and retreat. Outside combat, the ship continues producing crew requests, workplace incidents, social scenes, visiting ships, faction encounters, derelict expeditions, and unexpected events.

Play it and help shape what comes next Echoes Beyond is playable now, and I am continuing to expand and refine it. Feedback about bugs, balance, confusing systems, character behavior, navigation, combat, performance, or features you would like to see is welcome. The hull is unfinished. The crew is impossible. The story is yours..
