Evaluation
Starstruck: Prologue is a free demo — the first 1-2 hours of the full game, Starstruck: Hands of Time. It was deliberately removed from the Steam storefront by the developer on August 20, 2024. The developer explained this decision in a news post on August 16, 2024: with the full game's release date set for September 16, 2024, having the Prologue appear in search results alongside the full game risked confusing potential buyers. The developer noted that existing owners would still be able to download and play it, and that new players could access it as a demo through the full game's store page. This was a planned, intentional delisting — not abandonment. The full game, Starstruck: Hands of Time, released as scheduled on September 16, 2024.
