How does your game fit the theme?
We interpreted the theme of Joined Together as independent objects that, when connected, take a different meaning and interpretation. In Starsnap, you take photos to isolate shooting stars, which then you connect to create constellations for points. With the randomizing of stars, objects around, and different names, no constellation is ever the same, so each group of stars, joined together, are unique. At the end of the game, you have your very own sky made of joined constellations, thatβs uniquely yours to export and share with others! Show us your own sky and wallpapers in the comments! β¨

Pokemon snap meets stargazing? :P
Absolutely lovely little game!
Felt very relaxing to play in a casual manner, quite enjoyed just taking in what was going on and waiting for the right moment to take the perfect lil snap.
Did wish that I could do something with the points I was harvesting, although that honestly sounds outside of the scope of this jam.
All in all, really like what you made here!
The game is sooo amazingly beautiful and plays great! A unique take on the theme as well!
Definitely one of the best ones, especially visually. The game feels complete, art style is phenomenal and the gameplay is pretty creative and fitting to the jam's theme.
this is sooo cute, and for a game without any time pressure or conflict in it (besides that of the game jam......) its still really really fun
Really polished game! Amazing result for a game jam! Loved all the attention to details, even the menu looks amazing! Particularly interesting because we also went for a constellation based game, but we took a completely different approach. Always cool to see that with a similar theme you can end up with things so different! If you are interested to see our approach check also our game :). https://epord.itch.io/bound-to-the-stars
I love the art style here, also a great interpretation of the theme. Could definitely be polished up into a full game!
Hey, thanks for those heartwarming words! And yeah, we even had to skip on some features due to scope and timing. We firmly believe that anyone can always come up with ideas to further improve and enhance their games.
It's always encouraging to find a game in a digital store which idea originated on a jam like this one, so we're hoping to be lucky enough to play a few games that will outlive the jam! β¨
Ohoho, we're glad to see you again, Joh! We're glad that you think those things about our submission too! Our team's hearts have been warmed!
As for that last bit, we're sorry! It's a bug some people have been encountering it. We'll check on it and have it fixed after the jam's voting phase is done! We really would like for more people to share their creations, so it's a bit disappointing that some people can't show them around properly because of said problem. But even then, we're glad people still enjoy it! π
My favorite game I've played from this jam so far, it's such a relaxed and wholesome experience and a truly stellar take on the theme, I have no idea where you got the inspiration from, but, bravo!
Oh, thanks! A lot of people have been telling us that, and we're very humbled for that!
As for inspirations, there were a few games we knew that were about connecting points in some fashion, but the one that was most prominent for our inspiration was Longest Night, of which we took inspiration in some visuals and music. We highly recommend giving it a try! β¨
Quite possibly the best I've seen this jam, I absolutely love it. The music is great without being too repetitive. Good vibes. The art's great. The mechanic is fun and well-implemented.
The game looks really well polished and it fits the theme extremely well. I'm impressed of how amazing it looks considering the 48 hour limitations.
best i could get was 198 and a lot of fun :D really nice polish and a super interesting idea 5/5
I love this. Such an amazing idea and it's so relaxing. I just found a new wallpaper for my pc
Amazing polish. Really great job for a 2 day jam! There's not that much gameplay, but it's a very relaxing experience.
