TimeStrike was an American video game company based in Los Angeles, California, founded by Zeus Panacea in early March 1993. They were best known for their classic approach to video games, which were well known for their high difficulty curves and design philosophy of being "easy to learn, but hard to master". Some of their crown achievements include their 1995 classic BowieQuest, innovative 2009 game IMMORTALS, and the highly emotional Zinfestation, the story mode to 2021's successful COLD❄BLOOD. Their policy was to always ship out their products out on time without delaying them, always making sure everything was functioning well and being sure to never waste their consumers' time. The company's mascot was Chronia during their active stint, but Silver Zin and Bowie the Teddy Bear saw plenty of usage for advertisements and sponsorships as well.
The company was managed by Athena Panacea, who was in control of the company's creative direction since the mid-2000's. She suddenly went missing on August 4th, 2024, leading to TimeStrike's sudden dissolve a week later, and was later discovered in an asylum. Many conspiracies circulate around the internet wondering whatever happened to her and where her whereabouts are, although her employees politely ask for nobody to worry about her.
Please do not use anything they have ever made, ever, after August 2020. Anything under this category that explicitly belongs to her is forbidden from public use.
