How does your game fit the theme?
We interpreted the theme in a couple different ways. First, the pun with separating the T from start to make star, then the theme of a startup company getting their footing, and then mechanically how you get rewarded for having a lot of stars connecting to (or starting from) a single one.

I really liked the concept of the game; it’s very original and cozy. I enjoyed trying to solve the puzzles and achieve higher scores. A very fun and addictive game!
nice game, once I understood the game It felt a bit easy (i forgot about the connecting multiple stars after the first level) but still a cool concept
Loved the game! Frankly, with a few more levels, I think it could already be decently successful on Steam as is. The puzzles were cool and rewarding to solve and the new mechanics being introduced were refreshing and really helped keep everything engaging!
It took me embarrassingly long to realize that the stars would get greyed out on places I couldn't place them and that I didn't have to place them on the circles along the circumference XD.
The art style hit just right and bgm was nice. Sound controls give you some extra points too!
Amazing work!
This was nice... Took me a bit to figure out how everything worked, how the resources worked and the rules on how points were given, but once I did I could see exactly what I need to do to (and not in a single set way) to reach the goals. The visuals are stellar (heh) and the sfx + music give it a very nice atmosphere. This could work a lot as a mobile cozy game, no changes to the mechanics, just more levels and it could be released.
Very original and fun puzzle game, with great visual ! Well done !
Interesting concept with a good feel. Took a bit of time to get a feel for the goal, but once I got going it was pretty smooth.
This was a fantastic execution of a simple and interesting concept. I loved the freedom in the creation of my different constellations, and the fact I could solve the puzzle without following the path necessarily laid out. Such a cute artstyle too, well done!
Simple and interesting puzzle concept, and good atmosphere. Maybe I am an idiot but for several minutes I assumed you could only put stars on the white dots on the circle ^^'
The art and music was nice and fitting. The game itself was even better. I love the idea of using space entities for calculating the scores.
Nicely done!
Love the aesthetic and the play on star-t
I had a hard time wrapping my head around the puzzle/mechanic, as I'm not sure what counts as a constellation or using a single star (or what D-Star, T-Star or Q-Star meant)
But it's relaxing to play even though I don't fully get it. Would love to play this w/ a more hands-on tutorial for my monkey brain lol
The idea for the theme is very cool and clever. A very cute game. Good work!
So good! Such a neat idea for a puzzle game. The puzzle design is well done too, every level feels unique from the last and it can get genuinely challenging at times, without being too difficult. Grea-T game overall :3
Cozy puzzle game in space with nice visuals! Love the spacy background music. short but sweet, really well done!
I certainly struggled a few times, but it's lots of fun. I love puzzle games! Good job!
Small, fun, sometimes a bit hard to figure out but not that good with puzzles, and loved the overall story and justifications for levels. Reminded of simpler times like Cut The Rope or Where's My Water. Great visuals (though for feedback I think a small, lower opacity circle on the border would be nice for showing where a star will end up being, but the greyed out star showing it can't be placed was super useful and a nice touch to have). Great music. Great mechanics. Awesome game!
I love a good puzzle game, and I love anything space themed! This game is really cute and fun to play. It's simple, but challenging. I enjoyed the music and the art, especially the lady with the clipboard. This seems really polished as well for a first-time jam submission. Great job to the whole team!
