All stars went dark, and you are the last ray of light but with superpowers.

Fly through the universe and ignite the stars.  The dark star is ignited when you hit it.

Avoid the darkness and black holes–they consume your energy.

Usually, light flies straight, but you can turn, using your superpowers, or even exceed the speed of light. However, doing any of these reduces your energy. If it drops to 0, you return to the last ignited star or starting position if no stars have been ignited yet.

Color the stars using the aberration lens. The star gets the color at which the light points when it hits it.

Connect the stars into constellations using the light thread. You can make traditional constellations or rebuild them in the way you like.

The light tread disappears if you fly too long without hitting a star, especially when boosting your speed.

To pick up a new light thread, hit a star again.

The level is complete after you ignite all stars and make a set number of connections between stars which differs for each constellation. You can check what is left to do in the game menu.

Fullsreen mode is recommended.

Disclaimer: I'm not an astronomer, so star names may not be the correct ones.

It's amazing. I love it. It's unique. And a bit weird on the brain :)
