More about this game

In Echo Pulse, you must protect a central core from incoming geometric shapes. You tap to release an expanding pulse that intercepts the shapes. Hitting a shape perfectly within the timing window earns 25 points, while a good hit earns 10 points. As your score increases, shapes spawn faster and sometimes in pairs. If a shape hits the core, you lose 18 shield health. The game ends when your shield health reaches zero.

Tips
  • Focus on the timing halo around the core to gauge exactly when your pulse will intercept the shapes.
  • Prioritize hitting green orbs, as they restore 22 shield health and trigger a 2x score multiplier for 5 seconds.
  • Avoid tapping too early, as a missed pulse will cost you 8 shield health and break your streak.
Questions

How do I score points?

You score points by timing your pulses to hit incoming shapes. A perfect hit awards 25 points, while a good hit awards 10 points. Hitting a green orb gives you 30 points.

What happens if I miss a shape?

If a shape reaches the core, you lose 18 shield health and your streak resets to zero. If your shield health reaches zero, the game ends.

What do the green orbs do?

Green orbs are special targets. When you hit them, they restore 22 shield health, award 30 points, and activate a 2x score multiplier for 5 seconds.
