By chance is there a guide for this game, I feel that if I choose the options that I think are correct I will end up killing everyone in a sad and humorous way
There's only one ending so far and its in Nik's route, so I wouldn't worry too much(The rest of the routes aren't really close to completion either to see the fallout of your actions). If you're trying to get the ending
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
. In the main menu there's a extra button that lets you load up where a previous update left over with the ability to do over your choices if you're really interested in testing out all the possibilities.

Seems there's been some drama and the game will be going in hiatus for a while. The main writer has been kicked out from the project

Recremen summed up my thoughts on this pretty nicely. This is probably the worst decision they could have made. How disappointing.

And how are you supposed to support someone that not only is causing unnecesary drama with other projects, but it's also not the first time he has done it?

The drama is completely unnecessary but I do think he had a point with Cienie using nsfw art to promote their sfw-only game

Hes the only mf doing his job in the echoproject team.
literally no other game of theirs updates except glory hounds and thats a YEARLY update at BEST.
He was basically the sole reason most people subbed to their patreon.
What the fuck are they gonna do now that they fired him?

Damn that sucks. Especially since this happened just when Nik's route started getting really interesting. What I'm mainly miffed about is the fact that there's a significant chance we'll never see the rest of the other routes due to stupid inane shit.

I only remembered this game when I saw a Grey Hound update.
Holy shit That's something I didn't expect.
I always though the echo team are a nice bunch given how many finished high quality game they made.
Is that why the whole team feel like in habitat recently?

What really happened? The words from both side are not adding up.
No way a disagreement would lead to this result from a longtime dev group like Echo's, unless it's some lasting feuds, and this George did something that became the last straw.
And If George is the only one on the team that's working, it should be him wanting to part ways, not be kicked out.
Checked George's bluesky but didn't find anything meaningful.

At any rate, this is actually a good thing for both party long-term (tho not so much for the game).
If the differences are so big that led to this result, it's better part ways. So they are not Cripping each other.

TSR has been removed from itch.io. Echo Project has also removed any mentions of it on their Patreon and Itch page, and the copyright on George's page has changed from "Echo Project" to "Goodbye Fellowship".

What the fuck is going on?

Oh easy. EP doesn’t want anything associated with George Squares or anything remotely with TSR, and they may likely to not reference them in any upcoming projects, but Echo mainly.

Okay but what did George do in the past that caused a dispute and what did he do now that had to make TSM go on hiatus/shut down? Was it just a conflict between the writer and echo staff or more because George was basically soloing for Echo.


Edit: Found the source and typical stupid drama canceled TSM. Echo stole money from Patreons and while Patreon is needed to fund projects, a lot of people take advantage of it. At the same time, those Patreons really should have stopped funding Echo when they had multiple projects but only TSM was regularly updated.

If anyone has older builds of the game it would be really great if you could send them, or upload them somewhere :D

It's back on itchio.

George was not the only one who left Echo project and he has signed contracts with half the artist who worked on TSM. I won't be shocked if he pushes out updates more then Echo ever could.

As for the older builds, I would recommend checking that telegram furry VN archive. They most likely have the older content.
