This is totally just a collection of screensavers for Playdate*. Yup, nothing weird or special. There’s no game in it. Also, screensavers would be very useful on a device with a cathode-ray tube monitor. Or perhaps some OLED screen. That’s not what Playdate is. However, you can still chill with the screensavers. And loading. Oh my, there’s a lot of loading and you won’t be standing idly by.

 *** What is Playdate? It’s a tiny console from Panic! If you don’t have the console, you can also play the game in a Playdate Simulator (even on Steam Deck, haha), but it’s much less cute and yellow experience. If you have Playdate but don’t know how to sideload games onto it, you can follow this tutorial.
Stars of the Screen was nominated in The 2022 Playdate Community Awards in two categories: Artistic Visual Achievement Award in an SDK Game****Best App or Nicknack**
 

Fair warning #

Please don’t look for any minigames, hidden content, secrets or even easter eggs in there. There’s no way there could be a novelty two player mode hidden in there. Just chill with the screensavers. Not that I’m telling you what to do.

Note: The above text may contain misleading information regarding the content of the game for the purposes of our company zero-spoiler policy. There’s a bit of a hidden content in there. Somewhere. At least our CEO did promise me that. (See the game manual on page 451 when—or perhaps if—it’s released. Or just try pushing some buttons. Paper is super-expensive these days.)
