About the Game
Star Chart is our one-button twist on the theme of "Joined Together", where you play as one of the very first Colony Ships - engineered for long-distance travel via short burns and gravity assists from nearby planets. Time your ejection burns to make sure you stay on course for the next planet, lest your crew get stranded in space. Reach the black hole at the end of the level to bring humanity one step further in their search for a home like theirs!
As you travel from planet to planet, your ship forms a travel path indicated in white, connecting lone planets together and serving as the route for future spacecraft to follow in your journey to the great beyond.
