*** WINNER OF POCKET GAMER BIG INDIE PITCH 2016! *** Full of Stars is a story-driven space journey game about humanity's survival. The journey will be a test of both your skill and your humanity. When a galaxy-wide war destroys planet after planet, humanity finds itself on the brink of extinction. Scared refugees scattered across the stars looking for safety. Luckily, they find you - a daring space captain, willing to bring them to a safe haven. You'll need to lead them through dark and unknown parts of the galaxy, remnants of long-dead galactic empires, and sectors overrun by alien life forms. KEY FEATURES: * Wildly intuitive mechanics of an arcade game with a gut wrenching story, where every choice matters. * High replayability inspired by rogue-like games, with branching world exploration and random encounters to make each of your many playthroughs a unique experience. * A challenging gameplay which highlights the core theme of the game - survival at all cost. * Upgrade your ship and prepare for the challenges ahead * Expand and upgrade your safe heaven * Exciting levels which combine the best features of a handcrafted experience with the diversity of procedurally-generated environment. * An original mix of graphics where the retro direction meets modern approach. * Music which adapts to the gameplay composed by Jan Sanejko and Marcin Przybyłowicz (known for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt) * Riftinity Mode - compete with other pilots to achieve best score

Love it, except for the glitch

I always judge games by their logo, and their art because it almost always reflects on how good the game is. This game truly hits all the requirements anyone would want in a game. To the art and design, to the complex story line. It really is extraordinary how much work the creators of this game put in to the art and mobility of the game. One of the things I love most is that you don’t need to pay for anything to continue on. Even for reaching the alien world, there’s always another way to get to it other than paying a huge amount like other games I’ve played. This is why I was so disappointed when I found this glitch. Full of Stars gave me high expectations on what to expect, and all my hopes where shattered. I reached level four and went through the alien journey twice. However, the next day when I went back to the game, it erased all my saved data on level four. This included everything else I worked so much to get, such as my hard earned achievement medals. Despite that, I went through level three again but I was so disappointed when it erased all my saved data yet again. I can’t pass level three even when I meet all the requirements. I truly want to give this game 5 stars because I know that without this glitch, it could be my favorite game.

Good, but some things need fixing

This game is extremely fun and well made. The in app purchase currency feels fair to collect in-game and the gameplay is very enjoyable. However, there are a couple issues, if fixed, would VASTLY improve the game. First, the music glitch. Sometimes I will want to listen to some music while I play, but if you try to enter the rift(actual game) while music is playing the game will freeze for a minute unless you pause the music, and if you don’t pause it the game will crash. In addition to that, occasionally there will be some lag that kills me, but that doesn’t happen often so it’s not much of a problem. Second, battles. For some reason, during the bounty hunter fight, when I was skipping some dialogue so I could get to recharging my shield, it automatically sent me to the “how do you want to escape from combat” option. With the bounty hunter at 69% health, two people on my ship, and a broken shield, escape was not what I wanted to do! I didn’t have enough crystals to do an instant escape, so I was forced to try a normal rift jump... and it killed me. I had gotten further than ever, and the end of this journey infuriated me. The simple solution is to add a third option to the escape combat choices: don’t escape and continue fighting. The shield recharge also has this option, so why shouldn’t the escape? I hope the developers see this post to fix these issues so I can give this game the 5 star review it deserves.

I really like to play this game on my spare time and i love the space captain rpg story and everything.Its a great game where i can just jump in anytime and feel like i have a destiny among the stars even though the gameplay is a lot like a flight mini game and scenarios only come up when you crash or get shot or end up getting to your desired location, these scenarios are quite short and mostly penalizing after a major crash or indecent which is really fun to go from a flight minigame to an rpg text based puzzle. Some downsides to this aren't only the consequences of waiting for your ship to recharge after a few difficult runs and sometimes feeling like the story is haunted based on your attempts to improve at the game which is a downside that i wish there was a better way or just more charges i could store maybe im not far yet so im gonna keep my judgement light. I really enjoy the game but sometimes it feels like its missing something maybe more types of mini games or different types of combat or interaction with crew members to have a more of a personal respect system to prevent uprising or people abandoning ship? Idk just a thought. In the end a great game and I'm just playing it again after a long time of being away and i want to do my best to push through my inpatients

I got this game because of the incredible looking art, and I was not disappointed. The game has so many routes, so many scenarios, risks, Art, etc. It almost was the perfect game.However, the arcade or “flying through an asteroid belt you were forced to go through” bits are insanely difficult. It requires a ton of crazily precise movements just to get enough resources to go into overdrive and skip some of it. What’s horrible is that no matter what I do, it’s inevitable. The game starts with an easy course but they get unbelievably harder as you move on. I’ve gone through so much pain trying to progress through the story that I haven’t touched and can’t even imagine what the “hard” and “very hard” stages are like. Because of this, I inch forward about one sector each new time I die and restart. It’s a very time-consuming process that is very annoying and stressful to go through.Please give us an “easy mode” that reduces the obstacles and frequency of tough areas for more casual players like me. Even though you guys probably intend the game to be hard, many incoming players are just casual people looking for a beautiful place to experience, not a stressful frenzy of meteor-zigzag mayhem.Whatever next update you guys release, please give it a casual player friendly option so people like me who just want to enjoy the art can do so. Thank you.
