ASHEN'S QUEST THROUGH TIME AND SPACE



On January 31st, 2015, the world will forever change... for the worse. Return to the Gas universe with Ashen's Quest Through Time and Space, and follow the story of Ashen, the Dark Templar that complains about everything! Watch as our protagonist is sucked through innumerable plot holes in a bewildering experience that confuses even the player themselves. Will Ashen ever return home? Find out by playing the goddamn campaign!


Characters:

Ashen
Portrait by Daelin
Our nonstop complainer hero, Ashen himself. After his homeplanet is destroyed by the Zerg and he assists in defeating Vill Ain, he now resides on the his new world of Devil's Retreat. Little does he know, he will soon be thrust into a new adventure...


Adun
Portraits by Cynon
The hero of the Protoss people, Adun has been dead for many years. Now revered as a god, many of the protoss from Thalanduras think that he has forsaken them. Ashen seeks him out to find the truth.


Devon Starke
Portrait by Jasen
A member of an Elite Secret Task Group. He may hold answers to Ashen's questions...


Elena
Portrait by Cynon
Ashen's girlfriend - wait, what?

Hello, everyone!

We at Crescendo want to commemorate the year since AQ's release, and we figure there's no better way to celebrate than to update the project and fix some of its longstanding (although minor and rare) issues! You can read up on the full patch notes in the features section of AQ's ModDB page, but to summarise; all maps boast a more consistent presentation in their briefings, some exploits have been fixed (most notably in map four), and an additional scene has been added to map five.

If you've already played Ashen's Quest, there's not really a huge difference between the two versions, so there's no need to replay unless you're curious - but if you haven't played Ashen's Quest, now's a good time! Enjoy the campaign, and keep an eye out in February for more content from us here at Crescendo Entertainment!

Enjoy, everyone!

Ultraviolet -- oh yeah probably. think I misinterpreted the original message. I thought he meant moving the flag revealed the base in the sense that it opened it up to being scouted, but what you're saying makes more sense

Sie_Sayoka -- dont those ladder maps have use map settings game type? i remember in a lot of them there was display text showing the maker and other credits at the beginning

fritfrat -- Good point.. maybe in Melee it sets off the hard-coded Capture the Flag logic when they pick up a p12 flag, revealing the SCV
[2025-5-14. : 4:34 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I forget how they do it, but they can preplace P12 units in melee / TvB maps. Maybe unit sprites
[2025-5-14. : 3:38 pm]
fritfrat -- Artosis and Tasteless were chatting on an ASL cast that 6 player maps will likely never happen for competitive SC, but Artosis mentioned how there was a concept of one where a worker had to pick up a flag to get out of their base, which resulted in their base being revealed. That's not possible with Melee / Top vs Bottom settings, is it? Thought I'd ask..

dumbducky -- I am so good at procrastinating
[2025-5-09. : 8:45 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Me too. The general concept is exciting and fun to play, or at least I enjoyed it in the previous Diplo Europe iteration.

Excalibur -- I have no idea if Clans will finish his map but I hope so.
