To those of you that are having a hard time beating level 16. Turn the "speed" (found at the bottom of the game while playing a level) to "1". This will give you a little bit of time to plan each move instead of having to click stuff with barely any plan in mind. + this to help people read this.

Played this through several times over the years coz I *love* it. One of the best ever 'cell' games. This time I forgot I had headphones on and actually heard the music. Pretty good and definitely worth a listen if you haven't heard it. Still, and forever, 5/5

@robrargh Control over numbers sent is in the top right, you can send 30%, 50%, 80%, or 100% per click. Routes control is click and drag to create an auto-reinforcement route, double click the source planet to cancel (or just create a new route).

Blue has different behaviour, he's a coward. Red on the other hands has it in for you. Unfortunately when you try to exterminate him blue stabs you in the back.
And is yellow is..... yellow

I have to say I like the fact that when you send your units, you send all of them. Not half, but all. It adds a nice challenge, and makes this the first game of its kind that I have had to retry levels.

Sorry for the double post, but so far I find it challenging at first, but at 4-5 planets controlled, you should dominate.

first of, level 6 is so easy its not funny, you just need to know some strategy.
1. see the numbers on the uncapped towers? thats the resistance so a 10 tower needs 10 units to take
2. if you let the npc take down the resistance, you can easily take it. so a enemy who sends 15 units at the uncapped square, has 5 left after they cap, easy to take.
on level 6 just wait for the npc to break down the towers a bit, then take it over with your hoard.

I really liked the game, it was fun and just challenging enough. Once I realized I could make moves while paused it became very easy so I had to fight the urge to pause when I was in a bind. =P

Good game, but I miss higher gameplay speeds (it can sometimes take a while until my ships finally battle their way to another system) and an indicator while dragging to send my ships on a route - a simple line would do it.

i was doing fine up until lvl 12, then if i go one way, the kill from the other, if go the oter, they kill me from the other, and i i go both, i die, cause im not srong enough, becasue of that, i give it a 3

Spectacularly difficult, simply genius. I couldn't get past level seven, however I find that to be a plus in this stripped down strategy game. The music fits, the graphics are charming, and the premise; archaic. I love this game. 5/5.

me: omg I'm about to win yes. enemy pulls 500 ships from out of nowhere and 30 seconds later I'm dead I'm sitting there thinking WTF!

Anyone know other games like this one? I love the play-style and the way you you have to be able to know everything at once.
I would have sworn that I gained a few IQ points after playing this....

A nice neat little game. Also the electronic music and graphics remind me of one of the hidden games from Timesplitters 2, can't remember which one. I second the arrow size suggestion. It's way too easy for huge yet insignificant looking fleets to jump you.
For people who are stuck some advice:
*Use pause. You can still issue orders while the game is stopped. On the last two levels I paused after every planet capture to work out where to go next.
*Timing! Don't hit a planet just before an opponent does, do it just after. Equally try to hit their planets just after they've sent ships in another direction.
*Aggression isn't always the best policy.

I've played Little Stars pp2 and little stars players pack. First time I played the original today. These are fun games, no doubt, amazing little puzzles.
That music tho... I must have more... Where do you get these riffs? I need full songs!
