Hoshi Saga

jordan - yes, let someone else play for you instead. =p

can someone help me with 29?? show me a picture of it please. cuz i've tried connecting the strings in every possible i could think of

I have not been this impressed since my first grow game.

Really great game, thanks.
Does the game reset for other gamers to play on same computer?
I completed all levels and when others wanted a go the 'completed' star remained.
How can I reset this?

north - Flash developers can save your progress by using what's called a Shared Object, local storage on your computer where settings are stored. You can access a control panel whereby you can delete the stored save data for individual sites...

http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html

That link will open the control panel. Scroll the list that appears until you find the domain ece4co.vis.ne.jp, and then click the "delete website" button.

This tech note from Adobe explains the Shared Object and the settings manager in more detail...

Thanks, that worked a treat.
All happy now.

35.... just turn on the light for a while... wait about 10 seconds... turn off the lights... thats all.

I actually found level 29 extremely simple.

If you know how to draw the 5 pointed star on paper, where the lines cross each other, and you don't pick up your pencil, it's the exact same concept. Just connect the strings the same way you would draw the star.

Good game, Thumbs up
The best way to describe it is... Casual gameplay :D
(Im glad I found my typekey account :P )

I think this is one of the best games posted recently. There's so much variety, yet it's all so simple and most of all, fun.

I need help on 28 and 18. Curse you ending in 8 levels, curse you!!!!!!!!

Great game! It was definitely worth the 14 minutes I devoted to it. Great visuals and puzzles alike. I really like the variety of it all.

But as soon as I saw 26, I knew there'd be controversy. I checked back on this page real quick, and sure enough, the Pg13 tag had been called into play.

I really don't see why some people are getting all worked up over, though. I personally think that any kid that's able to play this has seen much worse on TV or heard worse in school by their age. I have 2 kids, (6 and 11) and I'm sure they have. I mean, I did when I was a kid. Me, I think the Pg13 should be re-replaced with kidsafe, but some other people don't, so what I think could please the most people would be to keep Pg13 on, but make a note at the bottom that says something like:

Note: This game contains one instance of content that may be considered ill-suited for children.

-or something else that still gets the point across, but leaves it more up to the parents to make the call, as opposed to just seeing pg13 and most likely assuming the worst.

I liked level 30, though as it simply adds to the variety of it all. I feel sorry for those of you that couldn't get past it though. I think it was rewarding net freaks like me. I made it with 11 seconds to spare on my best run.

As for level 36, I enjoyed it. I took it as perhaps a light-hearted prank and accepted it. At first I actually thought it was interactive, because I would-

Click on the star right as it was exploding. Heehee.

Overall, a great game. Let's hope he keeps busy! Btw, Jay- great site! I've been coming here for 2 months now, and this is my first post. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Charlie! \o/

Yes, I totally agree about this being a kidsafe game. The content in 26 is of a very mild nature. I buckled under the pressure of a couple of comments requesting the kidsafe tag be removed. Better to be safe than be sorry, was my rationale.

I've updated the entry with an explanation for the pg13 tag.

Wow. My first comment got a response from Jay! Thanks for updating this, and I totally understand about the pressure thing. See you around!

Stage 12 is IMPOSSIBLE! The little spikey things hunt you down and there's no way to ward them off. I got every other stinkin' level with no hints, but THIS level is the ABSOLUTE WORST OF THEM ALL!

^_^ yay no need for walkthrough...O_o just out of pure persistence and lots of clicking hahahaha

Anyone having trouble with 21 will find that tab is their friend...

Dificult level 30 is ten stars. 140 types in 33 seconds!!! in sequence!!! I try, and try but...for me this is the end.
seu!

Im stuck on 28 and 29.
i drew a star. but there wasn't enough points.
unless
do you make the lines cross to form a star?

and I've tried loads of ways for 29 but i can't find the right match.

and you say they go taut when you get it right. is that once you have all of them?

I could finish everything except for 12 and 30. 12 because I suck at those kind of games, and 30 because

I can't type fast enough.

Not sure why but I cannot beat level 21... Any help?

for level 29

starting from the top middle, connect the bottom to the next one to the side BUT skip one. So if you're goin clockwise, from top middle they can be 1 2 3 4 5. Then 1 connects with 3, 2 with 4 and so on. When you connect them all, the lines pull up to make the star

How do you do 21... I clicked the top left corner atleast 100 times... That is the only one i have that isn't locked left to do... can someone please tell me

i need help on 21 i have followed the hints but they are not working... need help

erhhh, 21 makes me crazy.

I've read that there's a thing with sound or top left clicking but nothing happens.

Need help please if you don't want another psycopath in the streets

FINALLY YES!!!!! now what to do hmm..

by the way, level 30 has been updated because of some people having trouble...

level 30 now gives you 40 seconds instead of 33!

i love this!
going to play it over and over again

Mozai for 18:

start at the top and leave 5 blank circles between every click...it worked when i let the dot make a full rotation after every click...should work i was having the same problem as you.

Hey all,

Just weighing in on the boring kidsafe thing. Come on, people, haven't you glanced at television these day?!?!
It's crazy that anyone would think kids could get harmed by that. protecting kids from the facts of sexuality is more harmful, for goodness sake. so the girls got a tattoo. sheesh. sometimes i wonder which country exactly is filled with censoring fundamentalists. you know?

anywayyyyyy. greatest game!!

Anonymous at 2:23, I would think the issue is less that she's got a tatoo -and even the location- and more the suggestion that it's ok to (partially) undress her. Like we don't send kids enough messages that women are objects as it is?

Personally, I would not object to the kidsafe tag, but I can very much see the point of those who want it PG13.

level 21, the thing to listen for is a 'tink' noise, this is the right bit to click on.

i cant do 19 and 29 they're just imposible im so mad plezse help me

help me with # 21 ahhh i was cliking but its not working what do i do?

waaaaaaa i need help with 21

Oh my gosh i cant get 33!!!!!!!!

i tried clicking and dragging the mouse and not letting go but i cant seem to get it HELP please

i just cant get numbers 11 and 29 !!! help please !!

god someone please help with number 33 !! im soo confused thanks !

Haha! I finally finished 30

with one second left!

guys, for 30 (iwillfindastar)

you might find it easier to type it with a space, so ou are infact typing i will find a star...

as for 12... i know what to do, just cant do it :(

How the heck do you do 28 it's impossible 33 and 18 are really easy don't know how people can't do them

for 33 you

have to imagine you mouse is a sword cutting the line. Start at the bottom left corner and keep slashing from bottom left to top right

click on every fifth circle only when the circle is highlighted while going round, they should make points of s star.

What the heck 403 forbidden it says i am forbidden why? i played it before :(

Yeah, I just tried it too and it won't load. Bummer.

Yeah, it seems to be forbidden from 28-th May 2007

Yay, I finally did it! That blasted 12 with its spikes had me here for ages but now I can go home :)

Awesome game. Thanks for the entertainment Jay.

How did you guys get it to work?

Here's an alternative but temporary link to everyone wants to play it, since the main link is down at the moment:
http://media.fizzlebot.com/hoshisaga.php

Thanks Danaroth. That link originated from here, and is already mentioned in an update to the review above, and most of the above links point to it as well.

If you really want to pass level 30 (can do this for I think every stage) :

I had to right click and click play , do this twice

For the typing one. if you have help of a friend put your fingers on you right hand on I, L, N and on your left hand put you fingers on A, S, D, F and for your friend have him put his fingers on W, R, T. when it starts start rolling your fingers all at once and it should make it after a couple of tries.

i think the people who are having trouble with lvl 33 are actually having trouble with lvl 30

Am I only one who can't do #19 ?????

interesting game. finished it in about 13 minutes all without a hitch.

the credits were a let down tho

What a disappointment the credits were. I was hoping for a contact form to enter my name and address so the author could send me money for playing his game.

Actually, I have grown to appreciate seeing the names of the people that worked hard to create the wonderful interactive experiences that engage me long enough to make it to the credits. So, when seeing the credits in a game, I know I have reached the pinnacle, and it is rewarding to me because of that.

why can't i finish #5 and #28?? arrr! help.

Laura: Have you taken a look at the first comment of this page? There are hints for every level of the game.

And about that kid-safe thing? Ridiculous. No nudity, a barely sexual theme if at all. Very tastefully done.

All in all, a very tasteful game. Leave it to the Japanese to do something as elegant!

idk why everyone has so much trouble with 30... oh well, i thought it was easy.

12 on the other hand. i gave up on it. i can't beat the game because i refuse to play level 12 ever again.

Good Game

But the credits were horrible, plus the only thing I understood was that neko means cat. The rest of the game is fine. They should make a second one.

want to know how to get past 21

you move the mouse around the faint circle on the
second to the top left

holy crap stage 36 is impossible

Level 30 is much easier if you do a macros :p

ahh i still can't get 33.. im dragging from bottom left to top right but its not doing anything

i'm stuck on 29 can someone help me ????

i cant do 35 can someone help?

I'm so happy!I love it!

GAAHHHHHH!!!! Can someone help me on #24???

28.

28. Click 2 times on the right dot, 9 times on the dot to the left, 12 times on the other dot left, 6 times on another left dot, and 8 dots on the final dot untill a star appears

veeery interesting.... beat the whole game, but one thing about one of the stages:

the underwear one was kinda inappropriate. they should've done something else. otherwise, i kinda like it. the spikey ball thing was annoying though. the ending was, in my opinion, very disappointing.

how do you complete level 29

That is just an amazing game!!! 20 minutes of enjoying it and I only used 1 tip!!!
Congratulations!

beautiful, with a very clever twist! (but level 33 bugs me)

for no.21 click on the top lefthand corner and drag back . i love this game so much is there a sequel coming out soon??????/

on the level 34 just click and drag up and down cross the lines

Could anyone help with 34? I can't seem to figure out the correct sequence...

I can't get stage 33 either. I am dragging in every direcion, diagonal and all, just can't make anything happen, please help me!

i can`t get #5

#1 reminds me of Mario, for some reason

Help, I'm so stuck on 13!

Perhaps it is because I have a touch pad rather than a mouse???

I freaking HATE level 12. It's killing me. D:
It's the only one I need to make #36 show up. -killsself-

i kept trying in stage 33 but nothing seem to happen HELP ME!

Hey everyone, um im having trouble finding how the spoiler thingy works. I've gone onto spoiler help but when you preview it should it say " show spoiler " or what you've typed.

Thanx

Marz
The preview should show exactly what will be shown in the comments i.e. if you have included a spoiler the preview should show up

with what you wanted in the spoiler shown here when you click on it, just like in the comments.

i get level 33 now. for all those that need help on it

when you go to "slash" click and drag from one side and keep holding down the button as you go over it a few times. you have to keep going over the thing to cut it. think of using a saw to cut through a pipe.

i have to admit... level 30 and 33 really got me.

Hey all i hear your having trouble with 33. Heres a little help

So your on 33 and there is the grey/black line try and find the middle of it hold down the left mouse button and vertically slice it, if the middle of the page doesnt work try a bit to the left. You need to slash really fast if you want to find it.

Hoshi saga 2 is out now. Not as good as hoshi saga 1 though heres the link.

http://jayisgames.com/archives/2007/09/hoshi_saga_2.php

I was a bit bummed on the last question which was just credits. Actually a bit pointless because everything was by Yoshio Ishii -_-

STAGE 33 33 33 33 33 SOLUTION
click into the upper right corner of the monitor and hold the button. then cut that lines all together from right up to left down. do this a few times.

I need the solution of the number 5 please
