Supernova finish
How it plays
Fling, merge, shift the orbit—and trigger a Supernova when two Quasars meet.
Starward is a gravity-well orb-merge arcade puzzle. Move around the launcher ring, fling glowing orbs, and merge nine celestial tiers from Dust to Quasar before the well breaches the horizon. Cross-orbit merges relieve pressure, merges charge a double-score Star Rush, and each Rush banks an Orbit Shift, up to two, that can rescue a crowded run.
- Orbit-and-fire launcher control
- Nine merge tiers from Dust to Quasar, ending in a Supernova
- Star Rush, Orbit Shift, three arenas, and a three-orb lookahead

What is inside
Inside Starward.
Merge up the cosmos
Matching orbs merge into the next tier — nine steps from DUST to QUASAR. The well is your board; placement and timing are everything.
Move around the ring
Repeating one launch sector builds strain. Cross-orbit merges score more and relieve pressure, so the safest-looking shot is not always the smartest one.
Trigger a Supernova
Merge two QUASARs and they go Supernova for a thousand times your chain. It's the swing every high score is chasing.
Earn your rescue
Merges charge a timed double-score Star Rush. Trigger one to bank an Orbit Shift, then reposition the whole pile when the horizon gets crowded.
Why it exists
Built for a reason.
Starward makes merging feel alive: gravity, pressure, Star Rush, and a Supernova payoff turn a calm puzzle into a high-score chase with a real ceiling.
Made for arcade and merge-puzzle players who want satisfying cascades, a rising skill ceiling, and one spectacular swing per run.
