Winner's name OVERWORKS
Platform PC

This is an action puzzle game to complete a white star by drawing three colored stars inward or moving them outward to unite them all.

The game is over if the player lets a star go out from the partitionless inside and outside areas with his/her guard down.
Though the operation, which is just “drawing and separating,” is simple, gimmicks featuring various characteristics enhance the strategical character of the game. For example, a star can sneak through a same colored wall. If same colored stars come into collision with each other, they start reverse rotation. We can enjoy a special exhilarating feeling in clearing the game.

And stages gradually get more difficult, and the game provides detailed tutorials.
The game is highly completed including graphics, SE, and BGM suitable to the world view.
