About

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.

I've played this game over and over again since its early access days on itch.io. I can't thank the Patreon backers enough; it's thanks to them that we get to play such an amazing game for free. It's a bit of a shame that there are so few POV scenes, and it seems the dev doesn't really like writing branching narratives within the same storyline like this, so this might be the only game made in this style. (Mild spoilers from here on) Just bumping the dad's head was still way too gentle. It would have been much more satisfying if Wil had gone harder on him. I don't know how someone can be so selfish and despicable. Instead of doing what he wanted himself, he dumped everything onto his kid to do it for him, and even had the audacity to use the excuse that it was "for your own good." Disgusting.
i haven't played for that long lol but i really loved the story, it's not just a romance game but also filled with lore. i had yren has a love interest during my first playthrough, which i just finished and bro do i tell you that he's a cutie! the main character is really fun to play as, as they have a different view on the world and all that. thanks for the amazing experience. will definetly be coming back to play again with maybe someone else as love interest, even though yren has taken my heart <3

这作承袭了这个制作组一贯的缺点,堆很多设定,但笔力有限,剧情和对话都比较冗长无聊。甚至比起上一作,美术和恋爱部分都有退步(当然主要剧情都很无聊,这部更枯燥无聊)。对于MC也有很多预设的部分让我无法同频甚至很多时候觉得很烦躁,该果决的时候心软圣母,该敷衍套情报的时候又突然发脾气。 但因为是免费的而且文本量很大还是给好评了,不想刻薄但这个制作组就是非常努力但可惜没有天赋所以很平庸的典型。
Hellooooo ! So it's been since i played changeling that i know steamberry's game and i love every single game you have created... i can't get enough of gilded shadows (i'm litteraly obsessed with it), i keep playing it when i want to read again about all the Li, i really fell in love with that one, but WSC is at the same level, if not better !! i'm so glad you added archievment on this one, so i know i didn't finished it at 100% before its released, so i'll have to digger what i missed ! <3 If i remember correctly there wasn't achievment with changeling, but i'm pretty sure i finished it I'm so happy to play again your games, and i'll wait for every future project !! With love, Selhuna
Esh never misses, i love all their games and have been playing along this game on itch since it was a demo and played through all the routes. it's such a good written story and the characters are all very well fleshed and all stand out in their own way. At the start of the game I really didn't think i'd like Raif but he ended up being one of my favourite LIs, i adore him!!
Sinceramente, sem duvidas, um jogo extremamente entediante, sem ação, sem emoção e principalmente sem o que eu mais esperava, uma cena de conteúdo adulto, nota 1/10 (gostei de fazer o personagem só)
Absolutely glorious and had a moment of unexpected representation. Thank you for such a wonderful game and immersive story. This was incredible.
Definitely worth it.
I have really enjoyed what I've played so far, 10 hours for my first run is really good. I'll most likely update this after I've played a bit more of it.
На любителя, достаточно затянуто как по мне.
