Starting in the year 2007 as a website for Sabrina DiDuro's game development portfolio[1], it has become the name of the indie studio, consisting of Sabrina, who is working with various freelancers.[2]

It is known for their first full-fledged game, Freedom Planet[3] and its sequel, Freedom Planet 2.[4]

History[]

While living in Denmark during 2009, Sabrina and her wife Marianne registered the domain galaxytrail.com, which at the time, was used for various things. The subadress galaxytrail.com/games originally served as Sabrina's video game portfolio. An example of her contributions during this time were as an graphic artist for the Xbox Live Arcade game That Really Hot Chick, made by HorrendousGames.[5]

Work on Freedom Planet started in 2011, in form of a Sonic fan game starring Ziyo Ling's fan character, Sash Lilac. During the production of the project, Sabrina moved back to her old home in Waterloo, New York. The Kickstarter, meant to raise money to polish the game and publishing it on multiple platforms, ran from January 16th, 2013 to February 15th, 2013, and raised over $25,000.
