The one that started it all. I read this around the time it was completed. All routes, and from what I can remember, I found Flynn's the most interesting, but it's also a bit unfair to pick one. All the routes make the story whole, and that's ultimately what makes Echo what it is. Well, one side of it anyway, the other being the actual plot.
I won't go into too much detail. I remember going into it with a mindset of "just another dating sim" and being surprised it had actual intrigue, which is good. It's not my top favorite, I'll say that much. Younger cast just creates a disconnect, so I was mostly here for the actual plot and lore, which was interesting. In the end, I ended up liking it, and I'm certainly not saying it's bad. After the initial shock of certain events faded, that's what I was left with.
Just a little bit of perspective from an older reader I suppose. Someone who values plot and characters in a story. I would say it's one of the better VNs.
I hope everyone involved is doing alright, and I hope that none of you, the fans, will take my little opinion too harshly. I'm not here to insult it, just to share my thoughts.
Take care, and thank you for creating something that still has me thinking about it here and there.

One of the few VNs I actually gave a chance to. Most of them were just quick "pick your date" types, but I always wanted more. Discovered this group and their projects, and gave this one a try.
Surprise, another one that I liked a lot. I think the single "route" focus is actually a good thing. It helps focus the plot instead of scattering it through many other plots, leaving you with more room to think about it and well, more time to enjoy a big wolf who's trying to change for the better for you to like him. I think that's sweet, and it works. It doesn't have to be mind bending or something provocative, and it doesn't try to be. That's what ultimately makes Adastra, well, in a word, nice. The music is also well done, gotta say.
I'll be looking forward to more projects relating to it. I wish everyone involved all the best!
Alright, I waited for 30 public release to share some of my thoughts.
Long story short, I like this project a lot. All the characters, main and side, have something to tell. I was never big on VNs and such, but I gave these a try and this one just stuck with me. I love the characters, each of them partially reminds me of myself. Yes, I do have a favorite, as does everyone else, but I want to express that specifically because I see a lot of people focusing on this route or on that route, but I kind of take it as a full story. A complete package.
Don't know how much that makes sense, but yeah. I'm supporting this project until the end. And all the, um... Spin-offs? Side things? Stuff like the Summer AU and such I mean. All of that is nice and fun too. Thank you to everyone who's working on it and still sticking with it. You guys are great, and your characters are awesome.
Have a good one!
