Description

Timewell: The Trail of Celestes is the first installment in Timewell Universe where space-shooter genre meets story-driven gameplay and light RPG elements. Player controls a Vulcan class space fighter as the A.I. SAT-V. Having an artificial personality of its own, SAT-V can adapt to varying degrees of difficulties and change its capabilities via skills and adaptations. Use your judgement and skill points to guide SAT-V to her destiny!

History

The inspiration for Timewell: Trail Of Celestes came from an old PC classic called “Raptor” and a love of open world RPG games. A two-men team with little time to spare began the development in January 2020 with no prior experience in game creation. Weekends were forfeited, caffeine was devoured, and all of the willpower and Chi was used. Timewell: Trail Of Celestes was completed in 20 months (or about 4000 hours).
