About Seeking Stardust
Seeking Stardust is a small browser game on itch.io, made in Godot by lemon cosmos and tagged as a daily puzzle. Each run is a journey through space toward the edge of the universe, sector by sector.
You collect stardust while managing fuel. Asteroids block the way, and you choose whether to weave around them or break through them strategically; when the fuel is gone the run ends. Because it is about squeezing the most stardust out of limited fuel, players describe it as an optimisation game, and they share their best scores for the day in the comments.
It plays in the browser with the mouse, takes a few minutes per run, and is free.
It suits players who like short optimisation puzzles and minimalist space visuals.
