Game length and structure

How long is CelSector? Six sectors: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2. A first run is a few hours; completion adds the Hard run, the collection and the counters.

Is it linear? Mostly. Sectors have side rooms and optional arenas, but there is no open map and no backtracking through one-way drops. Stage select lets you replay.

Does it have multiple endings? No. One ending sequence, then a post-game room.

Is there New Game+? No carried-weapon NG+. Stage select and the post-game state cover replay.

Combat and systems

Does it have a skill tree? No. Progression is finding guns and raising ammo capacity. See the upgrades page→.

How many weapons are there? Thirteen, including three pistols with infinite ammo.

Is there a grab mechanic? Yes. Enemies can grab you and you struggle free with repeated inputs. F1 toggles auto-struggle.

Does clothing matter? Yes, through a three-stage damage model that affects grab escape and hazard damage.

Is there a difficulty setting? Yes. Hard mode was added with the v1.2 launch patch. Beating it without lowering difficulty earns Bring It On.

Demo and saves

Is there a demo? Yes, on Steam and itch.io. It covers the first sector with a content cap.

Does demo progress carry over? Yes. The retail build reads the same save location. See the demo save page→.

Where is the save file? %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\YumamiSoft\CelSector.

Does the game support cloud saves? If you move between machines and the save is missing, check the local folder first, then the Steam Cloud status for the game. The local file is the source of truth.

Controls and languages

Does it support controllers? Partial controller support. The v1.2 patch added aim assist for controllers.

Can you rebind keys? The settings menu includes control options; check the current build for the full rebinding list.

What languages does it support? Ten interface languages, including English, Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Korean, French, Spanish, Thai, Vietnamese and Filipino, with Russian also listed on Steam.

Content and audience

Is CelSector appropriate for all ages? The Steam build is intended for mature players. This site covers gameplay mechanics only and does not reproduce adult content.

Does the game have mods? The PC build supports texture and translation mods. There is no gameplay mod API.

Are there multiplayer or co-op modes? No. Single-player only.

Troubleshooting

The game runs poorly. Lower the brightness and effects settings, update GPU drivers, and verify the Steam files.

The controller does not aim well. Enable aim assist in the settings; it was added for controllers in v1.2.

My save disappeared. Check the LocalLow folder above, confirm you are on the same Windows user, and check Steam Cloud.
