Timecruisers is a sci-fi steampunk animated adventure about a ragtag crew of escaped burrow-dwelling anthro animals who steal a powerful time-and-space ship, the Timecruiser to flee their oppressive colony, only to become the most wanted fugitives in the galaxy. Led by the haunted and vengeful Mortex Grazer, they are relentlessly pursued by the flamboyant yet dangerous robot dictator Professor Steamblot, who seeks the ship to perfect his control over time itself. Along the way, the crew each carrying their own scars, quirks, and dreams rescues an optimistic alien girl named Scylla and journeys across hostile worlds filled with pirates, machines, and alien civilizations, slowly uncovering the hidden truth behind their origins and the legacy of humanity. What begins as a desperate escape evolves into a larger fight for freedom, identity, and hope, as they transform from fugitives into unlikely heroes of the galaxy.
