Slide your basket under a night sky full of falling stars and catch them before they land, while the shower keeps getting faster.

Star Catcher is a quick catching game built with the PixelJS engine; it is the game the PixelJS tutorial builds step by step. Stars tumble out of the night sky, and your basket is all that stands between them and the ground.

Move with the arrow keys or A and D, a gamepad or the on-screen buttons, or hold the mouse or a finger on the game and the basket follows it. Each star you catch scores 10 points; each one that lands costs one of your three lives.

The longer you last, the faster and more often the stars fall. Go for the star that will land first, and stay near the middle so you can reach either side in time.
