Design Statement
When we first heard the track, our first impression was of a music box being repaired. Instead of manipulating the music box directly, we decided to implement a match-3 mechanic that repairs the music box, and so we came up with Antique Echoes, where you match tiles to restore a music box.
Since we are all based in Singapore, the music box itself is inspired by flora found there. Some inspiration was also taken from Michael Jackson's Little Susie song and the Bridge of Sighs by Thomas Hood.
Game Instructions (launch steps, controls, and gameplay overview)
Start playing from the webgl version.
Choose Story Mode for a more relaxed experience.
Choose Normal for the regular challenge.
Rotate the music box in order to see the tiles to match for a particular side.
Match tiles horizontally or vertically, you can move the entire row or column at once.

This game was so charming! I loved the sfx when you matched the pieces!
Such a cool concept and I also adored that you guys used the game jam song piece once you restored the music box!
I really enjoyed playing your game! I had to zoom out to see everything though.
Thank you for playing! Was the resolution too high? We have it fixed at 1920x1080 at the moment, but would be happy to add a resolution switcher if itβs needed at a later date.
The resolution is 1680 x 1050 on my computer.
Holy shit. I love the feel of this game. Can we collab in the future?
