A market of things that never happened

Two traders orbit a dying-star flea market. You buy strange echoes, flip them at ports, survive Drift Cards, and cash out before the Echo Tide dissolves the stalls. Fast. Atmospheric. Done in a sitting — not a weekend campaign.

Built for one sitting

Default tide is 18 turns — about 15 to 25 minutes. Set 10 for a sprint or 100 for a long night. No property sets. No “one more lap.”

Three ways to play

Two humans on one screen. You versus a greedy little computer. Or lean back and watch computer versus computer haggle itself into ruin.

Looks like a product

Dark cosmic bazaar. Amber, violet, cyan. Stall icons. Dice, footsteps, deals, cards, and a closing sting. Mute toggle included.

This is the actual game

24 stalls. Whisper Coins. Satchel of five. Ports, taxes, warp, Black Velvet, Drift Cards. The well in the middle. Your logo sits under the first trader.

Echo Bazaar Branding Studio

You do not have to hunt through code. Open the Windows studio, set your brand, hit generate. Gameplay stays locked. Skin is yours.

Echo Bazaar Branding Studio window

Point, pick, generate

New title and tagline. Rename the traders. Click colors or paste hex. Choose a transparent PNG. Generate one complete HTML file.

Logo baked in

Embed the logo so the branded game is still a true single file — nothing extra to forget on the server. Transparency stays.

Rules stay untouched

Dice, Drift Cards, stalls, computer traders, and tide math are not rewritten. Only text, colors, and the portrait change.

Why people buy this

You own the file

Not a rented widget. Not a subscription that dies when a card expires. The game is a file on your disk.

Your name on the awning

Café, podcast, membership, merch drop, school club. Brand it in minutes and it looks like you built the table.

Sessions that linger

A match lasts a quarter hour. That is attention you can put ads, a list form, or a shop link around.

Sell the reskin

Put your logo on it and sell a download. “Playable in the browser, yours forever” is an easy product sentence.

Lead magnet

Gate a demo or a house-rules board behind an email field. People trade an address for a game they can finish on lunch.

Membership bonus

Drop it in a paid community as a members-only table. It makes a room feel like a place, not a content dump.

Works offline

Open the HTML. No account. No backend. Phone, laptop, USB stick, bad café wifi — it still plays.

No monthly platform tax

Pay once. Hosting is optional. Nobody can turn your copy off but you.

Three steps. Then it is yours.

FAQ

Can I change the logo?

Yes. Branding Studio: choose the image and generate. Or place logo.png next to the HTML.

Can I host it on my own domain?

Yes. Any host that can serve a webpage can serve Echo Bazaar.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Open the HTML in a browser. No internet required to play.

Can I add ads?

Yes. Wrap the game in your page and place units around it. Keep ads off the board tiles.

Do I need to code?

Not to play, host, or rebrand. The Studio handles title, names, colors, copyright, and logo.

Commercial rights?

You get commercial rights to the copy you purchase: host it, charge for access, put it in a membership, white-label a version for a client. You do not get the right to resell the unmodified kit as if you wrote the engine.
