Star Catcher is a free arcade browser game built around this challenge: Catch stars, dodge bombs, and build a streak. The playable round appears above this guide, while the notes below explain the objective, controls and decisions that can improve a repeat attempt.
A longer clean run is more valuable than a burst of reckless movement. Watch the score, level and personal-best indicators to see exactly when your consistency begins to break down.
The controls are simple, but the pace increases as the run continues. Build a repeatable rhythm first, then take calculated risks when the screen becomes busier.
Move with arrow keys, A/D, or pointer. Keyboard controls work when listed in the game instructions, and pointer actions work with a mouse or compatible touch screen. For the cleanest input, keep the game visible and avoid scrolling while a timed or movement-based round is active.
