In this game you pilot Star Juggler, a spacecraft which can throw and catch Stars.

Face countless enemy as they face you from every direction.

Controls:

  • The ship moves to the Mouse position when present or can be controlled manually using the Keyboard ASDW/Cursor Keys
  • Click/Ctrl throws a Star, it charges up when held
  • You can shoot in any of 8 directions. Try Easy/Normal mode to see a guideline

Notes:

  • Catching Stars returns its energy minus the health of whatever it went against
  • Your Stars absorb enemy bullets
  • The Stars do a back-circle where they start vanishing. Catching it at this point only gives back 50% of its energy
