Honestly, I don't get the hype. The game is just a pile of neat mechanics mixed with some frustrating controls. It feels like it was made in a rush and none of the tricky physics quite work right. Still, I kept playing because the addictiveness is real and I kept hoping it would get better. Spoiler: it doesn't.
StarBox offers a simple yet tricky gameplay loop. The physics can be wonky, making movement unpredictable. Navigating through the levels requires patience and a bit of trial and error. It’s not as polished as I would like, but the neat ideas shine through despite the bugs.
The game isn’t too complex in terms of builds. Some players swear by specific combinations of gadgets and speed boosts. Honestly, the best loadout depends heavily on your style. There’s no perfect setup, only whatever makes the game less annoying to endure.
One secret I found is to exploit the awkward physics and find shortcuts. Timing jumps perfectly helps too, but it takes practice. If you really want to level up quickly, avoid wasting time on unnecessary upgrades. Focus on the basic skills that keep your character moving smoothly.
Following the story makes little sense. There’s no real plot, just a series of levels. The ending feels rushed and unsatisfying. Honestly, I was just glad when it finally ended because I was getting tired of the same wonky physics and repetitive scenery. It’s an okay distraction but not worth a deep dive.
