If you developed it from scratch, why are you using original Ecco screenshots (as claimed by someone else here)? Or did you clone the Ecco interface as part of your development effort?

I really can’t see the need for or the marketability of an Ecco *clone* in 2018. New, modern software that incorporates Ecco’s better features, sure; but a clone? I imagine the remaining Ecco user base is vanishingly small, and those who remain are very fixed and inflexible in their ways, so it might be wise to jettison much of what they ask for and do what makes sense for today’s market.

I don’t think you did yourself any favors by posting a “teaser” on a fresh Twitter account sans any meaningful details like beta date, release date, cost, website, etc.
