When Stars Collapse

Description

In *When Stars Collapse*, players step into the role of the Sun God, guiding a universe of stars through their life cycles. Over millennia, stars evolve—some becoming white remnants that scatter dust, while others collapse into dangerous black holes that devour light. The goal is to nurture each star, preventing them from turning into destructive black holes. jugabilidad is simple: use your mouse to manage star health. When a star falls ill, collect three meteors of the same color to create a healing rune, then match it to the affected star. The game ends when black holes overwhelm the cosmos.
