About Dream of the Star Haven

You wake up nowhere, with no body.In fact, less than that,You feel all the different parts of yourself have been torn away and thrown to the wind.You stand and look ahead,Not even knowing how you're standing without a form.Before you is a beautiful haven, but you're no fool, you know a gilded cage when you see one.Time to pull yourself together.

What, or Who, is the Star Haven?

After the events of After Light Fades, the alchemist Aura was left devastated. Sniffing out her shadowy vulnerability across space and time, the cosmic parasite Star Haven swallowed her up into its world of illusion.Star Haven dismembered Aura's being – her hands, feet, eyes, mind and heart – and cast them away, and now it slowly digests its host with serene detachment as she struggles to re-member herself.Upon waking inside Star Haven, and being ever the masterful alchemist, Aura condenses her last remaining mana into a time node, to set up a time loop as a last resort for her perilous search for a way to escape this dreamy illusion.

Gameplay

Dream of the Star Haven is a 1st person giant-leap platformer with a side-scrolling 2.5D platformer and a sokoban puzzler nested inside its time-loop structure (time-loop gameplay coming soon in early access).A unique hybrid of exploration, puzzling and combat - a magical odyssey through the being known as Star Haven, where you soar gracefully and eventually even bend gravity itself to your will, giving you the power to literally turn the dreamlike world upside-down in search of the missing parts of yourself and a way out of the illusory parasitic world of Star Haven.At each repeat of the time-loop, learn what is lost and what is kept, and strategise your own non-linear way forward, to eventually confront the great parasite itself and transcend its strange world. Embrace the joy and melancholy of a strangely harmonious yet subtly twisted journey, as you reach toward a higher dream of the Star Haven!

It\s an interesting platformer. I was really scratching my head once I got to the gravity shifting level. I beat the first few levels without issue but didnt manage to get all the gems for the star burst.

I literally can't play this game. It doesn't have a tutorial and expects you figure things out for yourself, but I am so clueless. Everything I think might help me progress is locked behind an item I don't have. I wandered around for 15 minutes and gave up because I literally could not play since I don't have the items the game wants me to have. Please add a tutorial or something.

Spent 4 hours trying to beat the first level, which itself consists of 3 mini-levels which are all 2D side-scrollers... Got ONE out of 100 "starbursts" in the game. I've been playing video games my whole life... MAYYYBE this is a bit more difficult than "casual" hahaha. Maybe "Easy Mode" should track progress toward the mini-levels as well. Completing all three mini-levels in 30 minutes.... Yeah that was rough.

I desperately need a walkthrough to help me on some of these.
