Inside a Star-filled Sky is an infinite, recursive, tactical shooter by award-winning designer Jason Rohrer (Passage, Between). What if you could enter an object in a level and find a level inside of it? What if you could enter an object in that level and find another level inside of that?
What if you could change an enemy or a power-up from the inside? What if you could enter and change yourself? What if these levels inside levels inside levels went all the way down---and all the way up?
Inside a Star-filled Sky is a hard, procedurally-generated shmup built around this core concept.
"A beautiful, violent crumb from infinity's table" -- IGN 9/10, Editor's Choice
"Eloquently translates the incomprehensible concept of infinity into game form... Alternately maddening and sublime" -- GamePro 4/5

tar xzf StarFilledSky_v17_UnixSource.tar.gz
cd StarFilledSky_v17_UnixSource
./runToBuild
