Starcrossed
Every thousand years, for those who know how to look, the stars align to create an arcane font of curious power. Once tapped by forces ancient and forgotten, all that remains are scant clues to magic unleashed by these forces in the past: ruins and hints of past civilisations scattered across untethered, floating "skylands."
...which is exactly where you and your classmates are headed on a field trip today. Between the bad dreams you've been having lately, a recent mysterious accident on campus and whispered hints of a growing cult, you're a bit on edge, but you're sure those rumbles in the sky are just a storm blowing over....
Be transported to the magical world of Starsworn Academy, where the students are ecletic and the teacher is...murdered?! Solve the mystery through dialog and a hunt for clues before your ragtag group of students is slain, possessed or even worse...expelled.

Hey! I wanted to check out some of your other projects and came across this game. I don't know if this is something still being worked on, but I've noticed some technical issues early on. There was also another regarding if your character was moon, mind, or sun when starting.
Thanks so much! This is helpful. I'm actually just about to do a second pass on this with full content (it's saying that because I didn't get to finish writing all the dialogue options before the jam deadline). I hope you'll check out the finished product!
Ran it mobile, and a few quick catches: blue was listed twice for hair color, and when choosing the mc's name for their info from the left menu: i dont see any way to back out of/close it..?
Thanks, I'll fix the string picker for hair color, for some reason I had that one as random and not pluck! For entering a name, you can click anywhere outside the window, but that's hard on mobile. I'll add a close button. I hadn't tested entering names on mobile yet so I might need to do a bit more there. Thanks for bringing that up!
beautiful art style! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you from the team! Our writer Polygon Native wrote up character briefs to inspire our artist Feesh, who thought up awesome details like the school uniforms and staffs!
amazing effort! good work guys!
