Story
A Sky Full of Stars is a very long visual novel, with 4 different routes based on Astronomy and the people's Passion.
The story begins as Akito, still a child receives a telescope from his father. Before he can learn to use it, Akitos finds himself in adoptive care and makes a habit of taking the telescope with him to school.
Akito found himself not being able to let go of this last gift he received. Developing a need to watch the night sky, Akito attends a school where he meets Hikari, a happy-go-lucky tomboy feared by the other boys for her manners. At the same time, a new transfer student is present in the class. She wore sunglasses and a fancy jacket, which let her appear as someone watching down on the others in a funny way. Her name was revealed to be Saya. The reason behind her wearing sunglasses has its own reasons. One day, as his secret is revealed he keeps carrying the telescope with him to school, and his classmates kept stealing his belongings and hiding them somewhere on the school grounds. The same did happen with the telescope which did get Akito really mad. On the other hand, interest in Hikari grows in seeing and using it. The twist is though, that Akito never learned how to use it and felt ashamed not being able to respond to her. Until Hikari helped him to find out how to set it up.
Starting here, we start on a journey with a very beautiful story centered around the theme of Astronomy, friendship, and romance.
The main goal of this journey is to find people and friends alike, with the very same passion, the stars, if not even the whole space itself and to find a younger generation in which this passion is shared and given further.
From the very start of this novel, we are enraptured by the characters and immersed in the wonderfully drawn and presented world. We are sent to live through past and present events a few times, which helps to understand the feelings of each character, Some parts are narrated by the characters themselves with their thoughts. Friendship is also one of the indirect centerpieces of this story, showing that true friends can help you overcome every event you have to face. And also build a heartwarming romance.
Character developments and routes
The character development is very rich in diversity as we are accompanied from childhood and kindergarten to the high school prodigies and academy students and partially even to adult life. We have many different sprites presenting all kinds of emotions, some even in draft style with a good bit of comedy to it which is very enjoyable.
We live in the stories of each character and we learn to love them just as much. Seeing them in different time frames helped improve their character traits and their development views which I did like especially a lot. We know the bond built between them. We live in the world they live in. We actively participate in their world. We couldn't ask for more.
Each character follows their own route and events, which is a big plus i do really like seeing that each character has their own story.
Art Style and World Presentation
The world is beautifully presented with a lot of details, going from city streets to forests and mountains, and up to very beautiful starry night sky presentations, in which MoeNovel did go out of their way to present it to the most accurate possible thanks to images created using data from the Hipparcos Catalogue and the "Starry Winds MMD" planetarium engine software. More info of this engine can be found by clicking here. The art style is close to being perfect, even with the sprite's different emotions, it is equal as you would await it in a mainstream anime.
The art style has nothing to argue with and is more than enough for us to fall quickly immersed in the beautiful world.
In addition, we have a complete gallery of every CG's viewed through the main menu which can be reviewed with all their different reactions which is very cool to have. We can also review specific scenes while selecting it in the gallery.
Voices and Music
This VN is fully voiced, with the exception of narration and the protagonist. The voices are, in my ears, a perfect fit for each of the characters and their personalities. What is worth mentioning is that the voice actors really went into themselves to enhance their voices to the utmost, which I really did love because it enhanced the affection we earned for each character.
We have also some great music titles with the greatest likely to be the hit of the OST and EST which are both great songs. The other accompanying music during the VN is a mix of piano, drum, guitar, flute, and more instruments, and I can't name them all as some titles are very diversified. All the tracks can be listened to through the additional music gallery and also be bought on the Steam Store as in an album.
Overall Thoughts
A Sky Full of Stars is without a doubt one of the most beautiful stories available in a visual novel. A near-perfect Slice-of-life romance with some drama and a good bit of comedy which is really entertaining the read. The comedy makes the characters even more adorable and the stunning art makes it even more enjoyable.
My personal favorite route is Saya's route which I found had the most funny interactions and story-building. I really love her as a character and her appearance, especially with her 2 different colored eyes which makes her just so adorable.
I also really like the general art style and the efforts given in the story and its technical details and seemingly the exactitude of the star's location which is amazing as this visual novel can be used as a reference for the fans of Sky observation.
Characterwise I don't find anything to complain about, we get narration from each of the characters during their route, and we have a lot of entertaining moments and story developments which lets the story not get boring despite its length.
This Visual Novel may not be adapted for beginners as it is relatively detailed unless the reader is already experienced in the more technical words such as adult book readers, but it is definitely a must-read for every experienced reader.
Another good fluff from pulltop
A Great Visual Novel rom-com for everyone, The translation here seems fine. Well just hope the fine days got translated too. The story itself last long , its about 25-40 Hours (Depending on how fast you read ). For me this is another masterpiece that pulltop made beside if my heart had wings. VERY VERY RECOMENNDED IT
A Sky Full of Stars 10/10
I only know a few things about astronomy and I have learned so much information from this visual novel. This vn is really great. Seeing the stars are so mesmerizing. Love the story, visuals, the characters and also the music. Played all the routes and they are all nice, interesting and different.
My verdict is....
Best girl: Saya
Best route: Hikari
你知道对于一个五年前就打过一次这个游戏的人来说搞成就有多么煎熬吗
childhood friends so yes.
It's MoeNovel translation so there might be some wrong translation dialogue but it's pretty enjoyable and not a big deal
