When Stars Collide

When Stars Collide is a science-fantasy adventure romance story. In the game, the player joins the crew of The Ophelia, a deep space exploration vessel as they uncover a trove of technology from a nearly forgotten species. Unaware that, among the items they unearth is an inhabited stasis pod, the crew recovers the found items but inadvertently awakens the occupant of the pod in the process. Upon awakening, Wil Nymera, a young interstellar wanderer, discovers they've been asleep for nearly 500 years. With nowhere else to go, Wil temporarily joins the crew after revealing they are Veleian, an ancient species known for their telepathy, advanced technology, and tendency to either guide younger races toward betterment - or else obliterate them. As Wil attempts to settle in and restart their life after a 500 year nap they did not intend to take, the crew of The Ophelia find themselves caught in a struggle between ancient powers and newer factions eager to get their hands on Veleia's tech and a centuries old secret buried in the depths of Wil's mind. - 6 love interests to pursue - A no-romance path - Flowcharts - Around 630,000 words (in Full Game) - Glossary - Unlockable bonus and POV scenes - Music Room - WSC comes with a small character creator, allowing you to pick some of your MC's physical characteristics, including hair colour and style, skin colour, and pronouns. - Strong language - Sexual situations and depictions of sexual encounters.
