I am 32 years old.
My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.
When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.
Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.
With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happineass of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.
After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.
Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.
Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.
Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.
Thank you.

this game is good if you first time complete this..
then... its repetive like other games
My playtime: 03:37:52 (based on in game clock, 100% completion)
Developer Response: Never.
Note that this game automatically appeared on my library a few months after i purchased Stargazer.
Intro
Stargazer Christmas is a puzzle game set in a christmas day. Note that despite the game name being Stargazer, the game doesn't have any relation to the story at all except the fact that the main character is one of the characters in the game.
Graphics
If you have played a lot of RPG Maker games, especially the ones with RTP (default RPG Maker assets), this game might be a shock for you. The graphics are so colorful and each regions are fit to the theme. The UI is also fully customized that you won't see any default RPG Maker menu style in it. If you have played Stargazer before, the UI and graphics are mostly the same as that. The game takes off in different location though so if you think that the dev is reusing their map, you're wrong.
Story
It's christmas. John Naught is ruining the christmas and we have to stop it. Following those premises, John Wizard (yes, the developer is in the game), summoned some help in order to save the christmas. The story is mostly related to christmas so you won't have to worry if you don't play Stargazer before. However, i do believe that this game is a sequel to another christmas themed game since the story started as if the bad guy is doing the bad things again and some characters are not introduced at all; it's as if they have been introduced in the previous game, which is certainly not Stargazer. It doesn't ruin the experience of the game though because what i enjoyed of the game isn't the story, but more of the side quests and the puzzles that you have solve to complete the game. The story is still a nice addition to it though.
The game
As i said before, this is a puzzle game with a bit of story and adventure in it. You'll have to explore some areas and solve some puzzles in order to obtain items that will help other people to enjoy their christmas. There won't be any battle in the game at all since the main event of this game is the problem solving.
Even though the game mostly revolves around puzzles, the puzzles aren't really that hard. The only thing that is a bit hard is to track all the things that you have to do (especially if you're not playing it in one sitting) since there are a lot of things that needs to be done. Sure, there is a journal to keep track of the most important quests, but the journal won't track your side quests. I'm not sure if you need to complete all of the side quests to finish the game since i finished them all before going to the final area, but i believe that you can just go ahead and finish the game even without completing all of them.
The game is fully costumized to play with mouse button although i prefer to play it with keyboard. However, you can't talk or interact with objects with your keyboard despite the help page saying that you can do it with enter button. I ended up playing the whole game like a left handed person playing a right handed game with no customizable control since you can't walk with wasd button.
Lastly, the game tends to be slowed down whenever i'm walking even though i turned the special effects off. I'm not sure if it's because of my crappy laptop or the game itself though.
Pros:
- A lot of puzzles
- Side quests
Cons:
- The game is a bit slow sometimes even with the graphic effects turned off
- Unable to talk or interact with keyboard
Conclusion
This is an amazing christmas themed puzzle game. Note that you don't need to understand any stories beforehand to enjoy the game.
Should you buy this game?
Yes.
If you like puzzle games with a bit of story, you should try it. Buy it on discount though because it's pretty short.
Absolutely fantastic puzzle adventure game.
This is a fun little RPGMaker game with some Christmas themes. If you can stomach the genre (some can't stand RPGMaker), it is worth a few hours of your time.
Cute, stressless game. I played for about 4 hours, but did not complete all the side quests so it has replay value.
Purely a puzzle game. It was a nice diversion from always having to fight your way through a game lol
This game is ridiculously adorable for a christmas game. I really enjoyed it - it reminds me of harvest moon on the gameboy advance SP. super cute....but can't get past the frosty forest still. Maybe a glitch with disorganized santa. but oh well. lots of fun things to do, tons of little mind game puzzles and whodunits. Buy it!
I'm nor an usual fan of the rpg genre, but boy, what a delightful game Stargazer Christmas is.
As the title suggests, it's a game with a christmas thematic. But, for my surprise, it's a well executed one. I found that the mechanics are simple but they are more than enough for the progress of the game. Within 6h of gameplay, I was able to find myself contemplating at how clever some moments were.
The story is simple, yet, it is full of jokes and references to a previous game of the developer. While I haven't played that previous game (I think it's Stargazer), I found it fun to see the interation between those chracters.
I think it's a game made for moments when you want to relax, but it also gave me a quite enjoyable and uncommon story while feeding me with some challenging moments.
Tried to record this game for YouTube.
Fullscreen, AGAIN, has problems.
So, only possibility?
A square. Wich doesnt even cover halve my monitor.
i wasted 99 cents.
