Wadjet Eye Old Skies - time travel adventure game from Wadjet Eye

[Infinitron]

Here we gooooooo:

Coming to PC, Mac, Linux and Switch in Spring 2025!

Jump with Fia into seven time-travel cases spanning two centuries in New York City, from the speakeasies of Prohibition to the vicious gangs of the Gilded Age to the World Trade Center on September 10, 2001. Solve temporal problems, survive paradoxes, and resolve the mistakes of the past or die trying—as many times as it takes.

This looks like a cartoon my 9 year old would maybe like, but probably not.

 

[Jaesun]

I like the basic idea and concept for this. And curious how this story will lead. Will probably pick this up.

New demo available!
Until Feb 20th
We are thrilled to announce that Old Skies will be out this spring! After 5 years in development, the wait is almost over.

And if you just can’t wait another few months, lucky you: we’ve just released a BRAND NEW DEMO showcasing a slice of a never-before seen area of the game! Download it here. (If you already had the old demo in your library, you just have to click Update to download the new one.)

Join time agent Fia Quinn as she travels to the 1870s to track down a champion boxer who rose to fame and then mysteriously disappeared from public life. A simple enough task, but nothing is straightforward when time travel is concerned.

The demo contains about 30-40 minutes of gameplay and includes full voice acting, Steam Deck integration, bloopers, commentary, oysters, punching, a shootout, and more!

This new demo will only be live until February 20 as part of the Game Over, T1D! Steam sale, a charity event we're participating with our friends at Breakthrough T1D Play. Unavowed is one of the 50+ games on sale (grab it for 65% off!) and we'll make a donation to Breakthrough T1D (formerly known as JDRF) after the event to further their efforts to find cures for type 1 diabetes.

About Old Skies
Fia Quinn is a time traveler, accompanying clients of the ChronoZen Time Travel Agency on jumps to other eras to make sure they don't rewrite important aspects of history. Some of these people are merely curious. Others have unresolved business. As long as they can pay for the trip, their motivations don't matter to Fia... until they do.

Jump with Fia into seven time-travel cases spanning two centuries in New York City, from the speakeasies of Prohibition to the vicious gangs of the Gilded Age to the World Trade Center on September 10, 2001. Solve temporal problems, survive paradoxes, and resolve the mistakes of the past or die trying -- as many times as it takes.

The bar showdown puzzle was decent, shame I couldn't just stun everyone though.

Hanna Tanaka is a retired police detective haunted by the one case she could never solve: the murder of her best friend on September 10th, 2001.

They carefully omit the androgynous person's gender (in the video description too), so it's probably a trans-trender. How last year.

Is the same protagonist of Control?

Yep, we're releasing on Win, Linux, OSX, Switch confirmed with full controller support interchangeable of course, mouse is always king. 32 days, lots of stuff to do still! But always happy to port games to the Switch!!This is my 4th now! Hopefully gonna get the 5th this year too.

 

[GhostInTheHell]

Can you just confirm or deny that Hanna's friend "Ivon", or whatever the name is of the person she is trying to save, is a transtrender or trenderfluid man?
Is that immerse considering it takes place in the year 2001, before all that ideology took hold?
Also why were comments asking about this removed from YouTube?

In 2001 trans people existed and people were less bothered.

Hanna's friend is not a transgender or genderfluid character.

Why is steam saying there is nudity in this game? Because

Old Skies is OUT!
10% off the first week!

As the subject title says, Old Skies has officially launched on Steam!

Join ChronoZen agent Fia Quinn on a time-travel adventure spanning 200 years. Old Skies is a story of love, loss and legacy. Plus it's 10% off during the first week!

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you played the demo, the SAVES DO NOT PERSIST to the main game. Sorry about that. Couldn't be avoided.

This game took almost five years to make and reaching this day doesn't seem real. I SO hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

-Dave, Ben, et al

I loved Blackwell, but after Avowed, it felt like the developper had run out of things to say .

Curious about this one's reception.

 

[Jermu]

premise seems interesting enough, I have a feeling this game is gonna be very easy but too early to say yet
no woke stuff please I just wanna solve puzzles

 

[HoboForEternity]

The soundtrack is rly great

 

[Keshik]

Fia's apartment is Motoko's from GITS, hah.



Finished up to the second chapter, the boxer's story was enjoyable, jumping back and forth. Puzzles aren't hard but it is a modern adventure game.

 

[<3sRichardSimmons]

Ehhhhhh. Very torn on this one. I’ll probably buy it this weekend, but if this is just Unavowed2 in design philosophy I think I’m probably done with games designed by Dave.

 

[HoboForEternity]

The puzzle is easy most of the time but i still think it's a bit more challengin than unavowed. It's pretty great so far, up to chapter 6 might be one of my fave wadjey eye developed game ever

 

[Falksi]

I loved TechnoBabylon, but I genuinely can't believe how woke everything went from there.

Fuck Wadjet Eye and their gay toss. Companies like that should be banned from getting exposure on the Codex
