Design Statement
When I closed my eyes and listened to the theme track, it evoked the feeling of flying above the clouds on a starry night. It felt like having the total freedom to wander the vast skies and chase after something magical.

To translate that emotion into gameplay, I focused on creating a short, simple, straightforward, 2D atmospheric side-scroller.

I kept the controls and UI as minimal as possible so players could stay immersed without distraction. I also designed the visual atmosphere to match the theme track's cozy, gentle tone.

I avoided any complex game mechanics to make sure I could finish the game on time.

The atmosphere was good. I found the controls hard to aim. I couldn't really understand how to use the star power it felt random and was frustrating.
