Celtreos News

The next Celtreos patch is live!


The Weaver Series weapon array has a new defense type, “Barrier” (also available in custom arrays). This rotates as your ship moves, protecting two different locations. It also has a weak attack similar to Armor, and a short-range bounce similar to Deflector.


The “Hyperspace Pursuit” boss now has more attacks.


Several enemy designs have been tweaked, along with explosion effects and other animations. Lots of other minor changes throughout the game.

A lot of small changes. For example, the “Jungle Cave” stage now has waterfalls! Some artwork is now more detailed, like “Alien Ocean”. A handful of animations and effects have been tweaked, including enemies and weapons. Weapon hits on enemies and bosses are now animated more smoothly.

A big update to Celtreos!

Celtreos has been expanded with an 11th stage!  Now, immediately after evacuating the city you enter a massive cave, full of jagged walls and huge trees.  Just making it through will be a challenge. And if you do, one of the biggest and most adaptable bosses in the entire game will be waiting for you…


There are now 6 weapon slots instead of 5, allowing you to have another weapon at your disposal every time you play!  Choose one of two abilities for this new slot: “Sweeper” (a widespread but weak penetrating wave) or “Star Strike” (a powerful volley that fires in the opposite direction that you move). Both weapons can be aimed more precisely than other weapons because they always fire in the opposite direction that your ship is moving.


More great music, fitting the newest stage. The Celtreos soundtrack is nearly 45 minutes long now!

You made it out of the city; now you are trying to escape through a cave. Unfortunately there are still enemies trying to stop you…at least, the ones small enough to navigate these dangerous and unstable passages! Keeping a slow speed is a good idea because you will want to keep every weapon you have to survive the boss!

Celtreos was created by one person and has been updated 42 times since it was first released in 2017 (averaging every 3-4 weeks!). It definitely qualifies as a “Labor of Love”!

Since the original game release, many enhancements have been made, including:

• Two-player mode
  
• An even bigger and more awesome soundtrack
  
• New stages with new bosses
  
• New ships
  
• Several new weapons, defenses and other power-ups
  
• Gameplay enhancements such as negative items, more enemies and new enemy attacks
  
• Conversion to wide-screen aspect ratio
  
• Support for game controllers
  

Every single one of these was a free update for those owning the game previously. And more updates are planned!

Thank you for your interest in Celtreos, and please consider nominating it for a Steam Award this year.

This patch works around problems with game physics caused by Apple’s recent OS updates.


Three Celtreos bosses have gained new moves. Be careful!
