Gameplay

Star vs

The game is an action-adventure dungeon crawl with some elements of a role-playing game, similar to The Legend of Zelda. Players control Star and Marco and must navigate a three-level dungeon maze filled with various monsters and puzzles.

Players can move in all eight directions with keyboard arrows (Up, Down, Left, and Right) or by clicking and dragging Star and Marco in the desired direction. Attacks can be performed by clicking on monsters and other targets on-screen. The objective of each floor is to clear all mandatory tasks and defeat the boss at the end.

Each time the player gets hit by an enemy attack or touches a non-stunned enemy, they lose one heart of health. Health is restored by using collectible health pickups: nachos restore one heart, and smoothies restore two hearts. If the player's health falls to zero, they must restart in the last dungeon room they started from.

Quests

Progression through the game is mainly done through Quests for a talking laser puppy character. Such Quests range from retrieving an item from another room or floor to simply talking to an NPC. Each completed Quest rewards the player with an item required to advance or an ability upgrade.
