About This Game

Embody Axelia, the goddess of life, and embark on a desperate quest to save a pantheon of animal deities corrupted by chaos.

Welcome to Celestial Deus, a Souls-like boss rush featuring a unique cartoonish, cel-shaded art style. Every victory against a divine foe grants you their power, allowing you to build up your strength for the challenges ahead. This definitive edition, completely rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5, is the most complete version of this adventure.

Two unique experiences await you:

• THE DIVINE NARRATIVE (Story Mode)
  Follow Axelia's journey to restore sanity among the gods. Your first target is Lyano, the lion-god of Madness. Your triumph over him will unlock Fear mode, a much more intense challenge where you'll face Chaun, the god of Fear. To help you overcome this extreme ordeal, a unique power is granted to you the moment you enter this mode.

• ALEATORES' PALACE (Infinite Rogue-lite Mode)
  Enter the domain of Aleatores, the God of Randomness, for an endless challenge. Here, progression is key. Each defeated intermediate boss grants you a new ability, making you stronger with every step. The path is set: face two bosses, survive a wave of minions, repeat the process, and then challenge Aleatores himself.
  Defeating the God of Randomness marks the end of a cycle and rewards you twofold: an additional ability and a permanent boost to your health and damage. Your score increases by one, and you restart the cycle keeping all your powers, facing increased difficulty. But beware, death sends you back to the beginning with only one of your unlocked powers, chosen at random.

Key Features:

• A Distinctive Visual Style: Dive into a colorful, cartoonish cel-shaded universe populated by charismatic anthropomorphic animal characters, from Axelia the axolotl to Lyano the lion.

• Technical and Skillful Combat: Your base toolkit includes a precise dodge roll and a devastating counter that can shatter an enemy's guard when perfectly timed.

• Absorb the Power of Your Foes: Each defeated boss yields a unique ability, allowing you to customize your playstyle and create devastating synergies.

• Infinite Replayability: Between the narrative-driven quest and the progressive chaos of Aleatores' Palace where you build upon your power with each cycle, the challenge never ends.

• The Definitive Edition: Powered by Unreal Engine 5, Celestial Deus features modern graphics and numerous gameplay enhancements.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

As a solo developer, transparency with my players is essential to me. That's why I want to clarify that I have used artificial intelligence tools to assist in the creative process of Celestial Deus. Working alone on a project of this scope requires finding creative solutions. AI allowed me to bring my artistic vision to life where my own skills or resources were limited.

Here is how it was used:

Skybox: The skybox, which depicts a stylized sky filled with large clouds as if viewed from a great height, was generated by an AI to match the game's unique atmosphere.

Voice Acting: To bring the characters to life, I first recorded all their voices myself. Then, I used an AI to transform my voice recordings, ensuring that each voice perfectly matches the personality and character of the deity it represents.

Music: I composed the foundational music tracks myself, and then used AI to remix and enhance them. This gave them more style and complexity for a more immersive ambiance.

My approach was always to use my own creations as a starting point and guide these tools, allowing me to deliver a more complete experience than I could have achieved on my own.
