I convinced myself that some metroidvania mechanics must be at play, judging by the impossibility factor that a lot of the stars seemed to possess. Turns out I was only half-wrong! I just had to properly equip my own brain with new concepts picked up the deeper I got into the game.
It's so hard to make that sort of thing work as frictionlessly as it does here. This is a phenomenally well-designed game.
5 Step Steve is my favorite puzzle game, so it's great to see a sequel. While more complex, it is also less difficult and shorter, with more harder side content. While I think that 5 Step Steve could drag on, I find the opposite here. Some levels could definitely be longer to flesh out their mechanic, and I often find that I beat a puzzle not through understanding but through trial and error. While the stars do not have this issue, they also require knowledge of the game that can easily be missed. Nonetheless, it is still an amazing game!
More fantastic work. Here I was, thinking I'd seen most of what could be done with this idea. I've smiled on almost every screen as I've seen some new trick you've devised. Thanks for sharing this piece of your mind. :)
