The Stars May Be is a short horror metroidvania with two modes of gameplay, space and stations. Your main goal of the game is to find warp core parts to repair your ship so you can go home. These can be found in the stations scattered around the map.

The space gameplay sections play a bit like asteroids, the map wraps around itself, there's momentum in your movement and there's actual asteroids (and enemies!) to shoot at. Avoid stars and blackholes, they're fatal. Be on the look out for ship upgrades scattered around!

Station gameplay involves exploring the stations scattered about the space maps. In these you can find upgrades for your suit that can help you survive or progress.



Mechanics in stations are more simple, walk left and right, explore deeper in stations via doors, walk into save stations.
Here's a short gameplay trailer.
